How does an insulator keep something warm?
Insulator help keep something warm by the thermal energy is transferred throught collisions between molecules,and air molecules are far apart.
What can a thermal insulator not do?
A thermal insulator is totally incapable of answering this question
What are the uses of an insulator in a circuit?
To keep shorts from happening.
Does a thermal insulator keep heat in or out or both?
an ideal thermal insulator does not conduct heat at all,so it keeps heat out!
What is the difference between a heat conducter and a heat insulater?
A heat conductor is something which is could at transferring heat. Think of a metal spoon in a pan of boiling water. The spoon feels hot because the metal is good at transferring the heat to your hand. On the other hand, an insulator is something which is bad at transferring heat. They can be used either to keep heat in, or to keep it out. For instance, because air is a good insulator, hot water tanks often are covered in foam, which traps air, which helps to keep the heat in.

What a insulator?
An insulator is something that keeps heat in, for example, if you put a piece of fake fur around a mug of Hot Chocolate, it would act as an insulator, and would keep the heat in the mug. x if u eant insulator..then it means a poor heat conducto, or poor conductor of electricity ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Materials that do not easily give up or take on electrons are called insulators.
What is the best insulator element on the periodic table?
I think its sulfer.Thats what I keep researching about.
Which is the best insulator stira foam card board aluminum foil or a plastic container?
stira foam is a better insulator because it will keep it warm
What is the best way to keep water warm without using a heating object?
The best way to do so be be to use a good thermal insulator. A thermos flask would suit this purpose.
What would make a good insulator to keep water hot?
your mom and your dad in bed
Do you need an insulator to keep electricity flowing?
An insulator prevents electricity from flowing.
What can a thermal insulator not do?
A thermal insulator is totally incapable of answering this question
How do you keep something you borrowed?
If you borrowed something from a friend or someone you know, but want to keep it, it would be best to speak to the person you borrowed it from. You can ask the person if you buy the object, or ask if they will give it to you.
Why is fiber glass the best heat insulator?
I believe it is because the thin fibers allow for a lot of air to be held in it to keep it insulated.
Does insulation keep things cold?
yes and hot too. Insulation is a heat barrier -- it tries to prevent heat exchange between the two sides. Vacuum is the best. Then air. Metals are the worst. ====================
