Wool is both a good thermal insulator and good electrical insulator.
However as most wool socks are knitted they have many small openings that electric sparks could jump through, so they are not safe to insulate high voltages.
wool holds lot of air.air being bad conductor of heat make the wool a good conductor of heat.
wool is a insulator
Yes wool is a good insulator because it is dense. That's why sheep's wool is fluffy, because it's dense. You can find this at farms!!!!!!!
cotton wool
cotton wool
it is a good insulator because its a warm and keeps heat in by trapping it with air
snow is a good insulator, especially when it remains in frozen state.
No because water is a good conductor of heat in comparison to wool.
yes and no it depends on what wool and what you want to insulate ?
Smart wool makes socks for skiing so yea
Cotton wool has a very low density and has thousands of pockets to trap air in. Because of this, cotton wool is a good insulator, but there are others that are better. As a rule of thumb, the lower the density, the better the insulator. There are virtually no exceptions to this.
its an insulator
