What materials are made from good conductors?

Most familiar conductors are metallic. Copper is the most common material used for electrical wiring. Silver is the best conductor, but is expensive. Gold is used for high-quality surface-to-surface contacts. Aluminium too is a good conductor.


What are some examples where electrical conductors are used for?

Electrical conductors are used in wiring. They allow electricity to flow through the wire and into the item needing the electrical power. Wires are usually made of copper or aluminum because these metals are good electrical conductors.


Are toothpicks good electrical conductors?

no, because they are made out of wood, which i not a conductor...


What is open wiring insulators?

Open wiring insulators are devices used to separate and support electrical conductors in open wiring installations. They are usually made of ceramic or plastic and are designed to prevent the flow of electricity between conductors and the surrounding environment, reducing the risk of electrical hazards. These insulators help to maintain the integrity and safety of the wiring system.


What does electrical energy usually travel through?

Electrical energy usually travels through conductors such as wires made of copper or aluminum. These materials allow the flow of electrons, facilitating the transmission of electrical energy.


Why are electrical and electronic appliances made of both conductors and non-conductors?

It obviously uses conductors to carry electricity through the system however non-conductive material is used for the reason of safety, organization of electrical components, and mechanical work.


Is coins conductor or insulator?

Coins are made of metal and therefore they are good electrical conductors.


Why is it important to know which materials are electrical conductors and which are electrical insulators?

We need electricity to be conducted in some cases and insulated in others. For example, wires are made of copper due to its low resistance of electricity, allowing less energy to be used but at the same time passed to an appliance. Wire coverings are made of plastics or rubber to protect us from getting a shock when we touch it even when electricity is conducted in the wire.


Why are electric wires don-not made of rubber?

Obviously, rubbers are not conductors. Wires are commonly made of copper.


Why semi conductors are preferrd over conductors?

Conductors transport electrical energy easily. You can transfer the energy at the electrical pole to you light bulb without much loss from friction through a conductor like copper. Some semi-conductors are very interesting because they can be made to vary the flow of electricity through them. A small electrical signal can control the resistance of electricity through the semi-conductor. Thus a small signal can be made into a large signal, this is called amplification.


Is a magnet an isulator?

That might depend on what material the magnet is made from, but usually magnets are made from metals or alloys, i.e., electrical conductors.


What electrical devices have been made since year 2000?

I invented the i pod in the 20th to entertain the people of america and to show how music devices progresses faster then most devices made.
