What else can I help you with?
Which of the following can NOT be used to store an electrical charge?
Wood is not a material that can be used to store an electrical charge. Materials such as capacitors, batteries, and supercapacitors are commonly used for this purpose due to their ability to hold and release electrical energy. Wood is an insulator and does not have the conductive properties needed to store a charge.
Is ebonite a conductor?
No, ebonite is an insulator and does not conduct electricity. It is a type of hard rubber that is known for its electrical insulating properties.
What is the insulator in a Leyden Jar?
The insulator in a Leyden Jar is the glass or ceramic material that separates the inner and outer conductive layers. This insulator prevents the stored electric charge from flowing between the two layers, allowing the Leyden Jar to store electrical energy.
Is porcelain a conductors?
In general, porcelain is not a conductor. It is considered an insulator. It is possible to make ceramics that will conduct, but the porcelain we normally find is a good insulator.
Which particles in an atom have electrical charges?
The Electrons and the Protons.
What is a material that does not conduct electrical charge?
Rubber is one. :)
Can a conductor attract an insulator?
No, a conductor cannot attract an insulator using electrical charge because insulators do not allow the flow of electrons, making them unable to interact with a conductor's electrical charge.
Can charge flow easily through insulators?
"Insulator" means that electrical charge can NOT flow through it easily.
Is a glass lens a conductor or insulator?
A glass lens is an insulator as it does not conduct electricity. It is a non-metallic material that does not allow the flow of electrical charge through it.
What is the only methold to charge an insulator by?
An electrical charge could be added to an insulator from another source of charge such as a voltage supply, or maybe from a Van de Graaff belt generator. {The one I used generated 50MV at about 12x10^-6 Amperes. }
Is a glass microscope slide an electrical insulator or a conductor?
Yes, a glass microscope slide is an electrical insulator. Glass is generally considered an electrical insulator.
What is a picture for insulator?
A picture for insulator could be a ceramic or glass electrical insulator used on power lines, or a rubber insulator used on electrical wires to prevent electrical conductivity.
What does Good electrical insulator mean?
An insulator is a material that does not conduct well, so an electrical insulator is a material that does not conduct electricity well. A metal is a bad electrical insulator as it has delocalised electrons, therefore conducts electricity, but most plastics and materials like rubber do not conduct electricity, so they are good electrical insulators. Hope that makes sense and helps? :3AnswerAn insulator is a material with insufficient free charge carriers to support conduction.
Is it possible to create an induced charge separation on an insulator?
Yes, it is possible to induce charge separation on an insulator by bringing a charged object close to it. The charged object creates an electric field that polarizes the insulator's atoms, causing the charges within the insulator to separate, resulting in induced charge separation. This phenomenon is the basis for how static electricity works.
Is iodine an insulator?
Iodine is a solid that can conduct electricity in its molten or aqueous state. In its solid state, iodine is considered a semiconductor, not an insulator, as it has some electrical conductivity due to the movement of charge carriers.
Is a paper an insulator or a conductor?
Paper is a resistor, but it is a bad idea to use them in electrical equipment at all.
An example of a insulator?
An insulator has several different meanings. The two most common are an electrical insulator and a thermal insulator. an electrical insulator would be polyethylene. a thermal insulator would be wool.
