What substance blocks the flow of electricity?

Insulators, such as rubber or plastic, are substances that block the flow of electricity by preventing the movement of electrons. These materials have high electrical resistance, which hinders the flow of electric current through them.


What is a material that blocks the flow of electric charges?

An insulator is a material that blocks the flow of electric charges. Insulators have high resistance to the flow of electrons and do not conduct electricity easily, making them ideal for preventing electric charges from flowing. Materials such as rubber, plastic, and glass are common examples of insulators.


What is a substance that blocks the flow of heat or electricity?

An insulator is a substance that blocks the flow of heat or electricity. Insulators have high electrical resistance and low thermal conductivity, making them effective at limiting the transfer of heat or electrical current. Materials like rubber, glass, and wood are common examples of insulators.

Are wooden blocks conductor or insulator?

Wooden blocks are insulators because wood is a poor conductor of electricity. This is because wood contains a high proportion of non-metallic elements that do not easily allow the flow of electrical current.


What is the difference between a heat insulator and elctrical insulator?

an electrical insulator blocks the flow of electricity (like the rubber around power cords that stop you from getting electrecuted) and a heat insulator block the flow of heat (like a thermos)
