What materials will not allow heat or electricity through?
electricity
What materials allow heat to pass through and electricity?
metals have the ability to pass and conduct electricity and heat through them....
What will not allow electricity to pass through it and keep something from losing heat?
No electricity
What is the materials called through which heat and electricity flow poorly?
insulators...
What is the difference between conduct and insulate?
Insulation is keeping the heat inside, trapping it and not letting out. Conduction is letting a flow, such as electricity, pass through the material. for example, metal is a wonderful conductor of heat and electricity, but a bad insulator. However, wool is a good insulator and a bad conductor. :) hope that helps!
What are not insulators?
Insulators are materials that don't conduct heat well, or (for electricity), materials that don't let electricity pass through them. In general they are non-metallic materials.
What doesn't allow heat or electricity to flow through it?
wood i think
What is conduction of heat and give examples of 2 materials that are good conductors?
conduction of heat is when lets the flow of electricity run through. Two good conductors are water and metal. Like when a metal spoon gets hot when you put it in soup. but plastic does not do that
What materials don't allow heat to pass through?
Thermal insulators don't.
What is the ability called when heat or electricity passes through?
Conductor Some materials are conductors of Heat OR Electricity. But the property is not the same for one material; example glass is a good conductor of heat but a poor conductor of electricity.
What are materials called which allow heat through?
It is called conductivity
Is wood an insulator or a conductor of heat?
wood is an insulator of heat because its electrons don't allow heat and electricity to flow through them
