It is called resistance
Good conductors have a bad resistance
While bad conductors or insulators have good resistance against the flow of electricity
resistance
No. Resistance does not flow. Resistance is the characteristic of a material that resists the movement of electrons and thus the flow of electrical current.
Electron flow is known as current. SI unit is Ampere
The "flow of current" is considered to be in the opposite direction.
Electrical resistance is just that: obstruction to the flow of electrons, which are (generally speaking) electric current. Electrons are what orbit the nucleus of an atom. You can force them out of their various orbital shells by using the proper voltage. Many non-conductive materials are not suitable for electron flow because they have a high resistance, e.g. glass. But if you send enough voltage through materials with high resistance the electrons will arc through the air across the top of the material. Note: You can, with a high enough voltage applied in a particular manner, cause the material itself to "fail" and conduct electricity. The high voltage will destroy the material when it ionizes the atoms within it. We can generate voltages high enough to punch through anything. Almost anything metallic is a good material for an electron to go through. In general, metals are good conductors of electricity. They have a low resistance.
resistance
An insulator material such as rubber or plastic hinders the passage of electric charge because it does not allow electrons to flow freely. This property makes insulators useful for insulating and protecting electrical wires and components.
An insulator is a material that hinders the passage of electric charge. Insulators have high electrical resistance, which prevents the flow of electric current through them. Examples of insulating materials include rubber, glass, and plastic.
ohms law (resistance)
Materials that permit electron flow are called conductors. Metals such as copper, aluminum, and gold are good conductors of electricity due to their free-moving electrons. This allows for the efficient flow of electrons through the material.
Electrons are in random motion in a material, such that there is no resultant electron movement. Hence a material has no current flow by its own. Only the directed flow of this charge in a direction, will results in current. when we provide sufficient energy (for example by mean of applied potential difference ) the net motion of the electron gives rise to the current flow.
No. Resistance does not flow. Resistance is the characteristic of a material that resists the movement of electrons and thus the flow of electrical current.
Metals that are poor conductors of electricity include tungsten, bismuth, and manganese. These metals have high resistivity due to their electron configuration, which hinders the flow of electric current through them.
Certain materials have electric resistance due to the collisions between the electrons and atoms within the material, which hinders the flow of electric current. The resistance is caused by factors such as the type of material, temperature, and impurities present in the material.
Plastic.
Those are the materials we loosely call "conductors".
