Because it does not allow heat or electricity to pass them.
There are many. One example is plastic. to expand first are the ceramics, then glasses, finally plastics.
It is not good for cooking because the conductor traps the heat so it stays hot
The difference between a conductor and an insulator is that a conductor allows electrons to travel. This is because the "outer electrons" of a conductor are not anchored like those of an insulator. Conductors tend to be metals. Some examples of insulators are plastic, glass, rubber and wood.
Basically the semi-conductor junctions are a larger surface area and heat sinks are part of the design to dissipate heat.
Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. However the degree of conductivity varies with each type of metal.
plastic is a bad conductor of heat because it is made up of different man made material's.
No, because plastic is an insulator making it a very bad conductor of heat.
No, because plastic is an insulator making it a very bad conductor of heat.
A bad conductor is a material that does not allow the flow of electricity or heat very well. This is due to the lack of free electrons that can move easily within the material to carry the electric current or heat. Examples of bad conductors include rubber, plastic, and wood.
A good conductor of heat is metal as it has free electrons that can also carry Energy aswell as the partials themselves. This can be used for a radiator so the room can be heated. A bad conductor of heat is polystyrene. This can be used for plastic cups so the drink stay hot longer.
It is a bad conductor of heat, that is why it is used as an insulating material.
Wood is not a conductor of heat and so is plastic whereas metal is the perfect conductor for heat
The elements or compound between which the force of attraction is less and they are not abele to transfer heat to the other bound compound or element and the material starts burning is called a bad conductor of heat for example....- wood , mercury
yes!
Not if you wish to be grammatically correct. You could say "plastic is a bad conductor of electricity," which would be an accurate statement.
which of these is the best conductor of heat? rubber , stainless steel , plastic , cloth
A plastic spoon is a poor conductor of heat. This means that it does not transfer heat efficiently, making it suitable for use in handling hot foods without transferring much heat to the user's hand.
