Better... for what exactly? Please note that while one material can be better for one purpose, another one may be better for a different purpose.Differences between materials are due to the different percentages of elements present in the materials, as well as to the way the atoms are arranged.

What makes one material better conductor than another?

One material may be a better conductor than another due to its atomic structure, specifically the mobility of its electrons. Materials with more free electrons that are able to move easily will conduct electricity more efficiently. Additionally, the presence of impurities, temperature, and crystalline structure can also impact a material's conductivity.


Why is constantan better than copper?

Better for what? Usually one material is better for some things, other materials for other things. The special feature of constantan is its low temperature coefficient for electrical resistance.


Is fibreglass a better insulator than vacuum?

Vacuum is a better insulator than fiberglass. Vacuum has no particles to transfer heat through, while fiberglass relies on slowing down heat transfer through its material. This makes vacuum a more effective insulator, as it minimizes heat transfer through conduction and convection.


A heat source is located under one end of a solid material- what process carries heat to the other end of the block?

Conduction.The thermal energy is transferred from high-energy (hot) particles) to adjacent low-energy (cold) particles, and in this way the heat is conducted along the length of the material. Some materials do this better than others, for example metals will conduct heat better than wood. This property of the material is called its thermal conductivity.


Which is a better insulator plywood or glass if the same thickness of material is used How do you know?

Glass is a better insulator than plywood when the same thickness of material is used. This is because glass has lower thermal conductivity than plywood, meaning it can restrict the flow of heat better. You can determine this by looking up the thermal conductivity values of plywood and glass and comparing them.
