What are 3 examples of an insulator?

Answer 1

Insulators of electricity: A person wearing rubber boots stepping on an exposed wire without getting electrocuted. Insulators of heat: A styrofoam cup containing hot water. It does not heat up or burn your hand a lot. In fact, it is so minimal that you hardly notice it.

Answer 2

Sounds like the question is part or homework. Problem is, without knowing the list of materials you have, we do not know which ones to pick. If you want general examples: Glass, ceramic, plastic, rubber. At lower voltages then paper, wood, skin, cardboard, ivory. At higher voltages however (or if damp), then paper, wood, carboard and skin will all conduct electricity.

Commercial insulators for high voltage applications (power pylons / towers etc) tend to use ceramic and glass to make the insulators. Most wire is insulated with PVC as it is both a very good insulator and also flexible.

Some OLD cables (before PVC and when it was known that rubber would perish over time), actually used a combination of waxed paper and cotton if they were to be burried underground.

Answer 3

plastic wood and glass. But you must decide whether you want a heat insulator, a sound insulator, or an electrical insulator. Insulation is the primary process.

Answer 4

Examples of insulators are things such as plastic, glass, cloth. Metals are not insulators

Answer 5

Rubber, glass, and plastic are three examples of insulators. These materials do not easily conduct electricity or heat, making them good for insulating purposes.

Answer 6

Conductors are non-examples of insulation
