A superconductor is a material that can conduct electricity without any resistance when cooled below a certain critical temperature. This results in zero electrical resistance and allows a current to flow without losing energy to heat.

Is super glue a conductor of electricity?

No, super glue is not a good conductor of electricity. It is an insulator, meaning it does not allow electricity to flow through it easily.

Can you apply magnetic field on super conductor?

Yes. One application of a magnetic field on a super conductor is quantum locking. Imagine the field lined of magnet penetrating an object. Now transform that object into a super conductor (i.e. super cool a substance that is not a super conductor at room temp into a super conductor by cooling it to a point where it is). That object is now quantum locked on the field lines and will tend to remain in a similar position without outside influence, besides the magnet, of course. It is such a principle that mag-lev trains that use superconductors operate on.

Why super conductor is not used?

b'coz super conductivity is achieved only when the material is cooled below a critical temperature. if it cooled above the critical temp. than the material ceases to be a super conductor. to maintain it conductivity helium and liquid nitrogen which is not easy 2 be used that is why super conductor can't be used for commercial purposes in our day to day life
