Why isn't steel a good insulator?
Steel is a conductor, because it is a metal and most metals are good conductors of heat, like iron, aluminium, copper, silver, stainless steel etc.
Which metal gets hot fastest?
If you are asking about which metal conducts heat the best(and subsequently gets hotter the fastest), then that would be elemental silver. However, because of cost, silver is usually replaced by copper as the heat-conducting metal of choice in modern day society.
What shiny solid conducts electricity very well?
Copper
What pan heats up quicker?
One with a copper bottom, copper conducts the heat faster and distributes the heat evenly.
Which metal is not used as a electromagnet?
Most metals. eg Aluminium, copper, tin, uranium

What is the thermal conductivity of a stainless pot compared to a copper-bottomed pot?
They're the same, actually. Copper-clad pots are always made out of stainless steel, so the pots are identical. The trick is that a copper-clad stainless pot absorbs heat better due to the copper cladding - the copper conducts heat better than stainless.

Are Stainless steel cokware with cooper bottam is better?
Copper conducts heat better than stainless steel. If you can afford the copper, go for it. If not, stainless steel will work fine for just about anything. Also, bare stainless conducts heat much better than non-stick. So for browning food, non-stick pans should be avoided (and copper bottom bare pans would be best).
