What else can I help you with?
Is straw a good conductor of heat?
No it is not a good conductor of heat☺ Hope so it will
A material that is not a good conductor of heat is a called an?
Insulator, same as for electricity. An example of insulators (of heat) is Styrofoam.
Is salt a good insulator?
No, salt is not a good insulator. It is a good conductor of electricity and can conduct heat fairly well. Insulators, on the other hand, are materials that do not conduct electricity or heat easily.
What is the difference between an insulator and a good conductor of heat?
An insulator is a material that does not allow heat to pass through easily, while a good conductor of heat is a material that allows heat to pass through easily. Insulators have low thermal conductivity, while good conductors have high thermal conductivity. Materials like rubber and wood are examples of insulators, while metals like copper and aluminum are good conductors of heat.
Is cotton wool a good conductor of heat?
its a good insulator, meaning that yes, it is a good non-conductor. Materials that insulate heat, eg wool, cotton etc, are also by definition good electrical insulators. Good conductors would include most metals, which you may have noticed are bad insulators. you wouldn't wear metal underwear anyway!
Are diapers good insulators?
diapers are good insulators because they hold in the cold and and heat but is a bad conductor
What isn't a good conductor of heat?
Insulators, such as wood aren't very good conductors of heat.
Is straw a good conductor of heat?
No it is not a good conductor of heat☺ Hope so it will
Why don't metal keep heat well?
Because it is a good conductor and if you are a good conductor you are a poor insulator. Insulators, keep heat in and, conductors let heat pass through them easily.
Is a copper nail an insulators?
Copper is a very good conductor for heat and electricity.
Which is not a good conductor of heat?
elements with low thermal conductivity are called insulators. they cannot transfer heat in an efficient way. they are not good conductors.
What is a good conductor and a good insulator?
Good conductors, of heat and electricity are metals such as copper and silver. Good insulators are vacuums, wood and plastics.
A material that is not a good conductor of heat is a called an?
Insulator, same as for electricity. An example of insulators (of heat) is Styrofoam.
What are heat retaining objects?
Styrofoam and other similar insulators retain a good amount of heat. Anything composed of metal is a conductor and will move heat through it.
Is a good heat conductor a good insulator?
It really depends. Glass, for example, does a fair job at conducting heat, but it is an insulator to electricity, which is why it is usually used for the insulators on power lines. Metal, on the other hand, is usually a conductor of electricity, and a conductor of heat as well, so it depends.
Is salt a good insulator?
No, salt is not a good insulator. It is a good conductor of electricity and can conduct heat fairly well. Insulators, on the other hand, are materials that do not conduct electricity or heat easily.
