Because copper conducts electricty, so if you touch it it would shock you. Also, copper is a type of metal.
Copper wire is a conductor of electricity. Its high conductivity allows electric current to flow easily through it.
yes copper is actually a very good insulator to both heat and electric conducting A2: NO. Copper is about the second-best electrical conductor, next to silver. It is also a very Good heat conductor. Try heating an iron poker in a fire. The heat travels slowly to the opposite end. A copper wire, however, if stuck in the fire, will transfer heat Very quickly--you won't be able to hold the other end of it! wikipedia.org/copper
No, copper wire is a conducting wire. Copper is an excellent conductor of electricity, which is why it is commonly used in wiring to allow the flow of electricity. Insulating wire, on the other hand, is designed with materials that prevent the flow of electricity.
copper wire because we all know that metal strengthens the magnetic field but copper has a special property that strengthens the magnetic field further so copper is the answer P.S. i already did the experiment
It should be a "pure" substance, but its really an alloy.
Wire can be either an insulator or a conductor, depending on its material and properties. Copper wire, for example, is a good conductor of electricity, while rubber-coated wire is used as an insulator to protect against electric shocks.
A good insulator would be rubber or plastic.

Conductor, it is actually one of the best conductors for both heat and electricity.
because copper is a metal and polthene is a non metal? Infact, polythene doesn't even conduct electricity....
no it is good conductor because it has free electrons
because plastic is an insulator
yes its a metal
It doesn't, it is a conductor of heat and electricity.
In most cases, copper is the metal used in wire.

it makes a good conductor because it is steel, but not so great as an insulator. this is simply because there is space between the fibers on the outside, and that something could come in contact with the steel wire.
