Glass and plastic also if there are other modifiers rubber is also included because it is a good insulation material.

What is the definition for conductivity?

1. The act of conducting, as of water through a pipe.2. Physics .a.the transfer of heat between two parts of a stationary system, caused by a temperature difference between the parts. 3.Physiology . the carrying of waves, electrons, heat, or nerve impulses by a nerve or other tissue.


Will electricity pass through 2 wires?

Yes, electricity can pass through two wires if they are connected in a circuit where there is a complete path for the electricity to flow. If the wires are not connected in a closed circuit, the electricity will not flow between them.


What is the ability to transfer an electric current?

Conductivity The ability or power to conduct or transmit heat, electricity, or sound.answer 2 An electric current can be transferred in an electrical conductor such as a wire. Alternating current may also be transferred by a transformer, in which none of the original electrons are present at the output, but they influence the current in the secondary winding.[A similar transfer can take place in a capacitor complex, but almost never met with.]And in thermionic valves, the input signal is used to control the flow of electrons in a different circuit. Similarly with transistor circuits.And, the original electric current could be converted to a radio wave, and transmitted.


Name 2 materials that do not conduct electric current?

Only two? Most metal oxides won't: tantalum pentoxide won't, which is why electrolytic (wet) capacitors work. Alumina serves the same purpose in dry capacitors. Almost any ceramic material will insulate. How about glass? Try conducting electricity through glass or quartz, both made of sand.


Is the flow of electrons is called electric current?

static electricity- a kind of electricity produced by rubbing 2 different materials together to create friction/heat which makes static electricity.current electricity- a kind of electricity that has continuous movement of electrons[don't put your grade for safety purposes]

How does a 2-way switch work to control the flow of electricity in a circuit?

A 2-way switch works by allowing the user to change the direction of the flow of electricity in a circuit. When the switch is in one position, it connects one terminal to the power source, and when it is flipped to the other position, it connects a different terminal to the power source, effectively controlling the flow of electricity in the circuit.


Does electricity continue to flow through a table lamp when the switch is on and the bulb is removed from the lamp?

Electricity flows by any conductor.But the most used to flow electricity is copper. Now if there is any problem with a wire even if it is a conductor the electricity will not flow.Sometimes when trying to make an electric circuit the electricity does not flow,if the wirehas no problem it is a problem with connection to make that work you just put silver paperbetween the 2 wires that have a problem in connecting to the bulb or any such thing.

Does electricity go though aluminum foil?

I would say yesANS 2 - Definitely, in fact that's what house wiring used to be.
