How does an insulator keep something warm?
An insulator keeps something warm by trapping heat and preventing it from escaping. This is typically done by using materials that have low thermal conductivity, which reduces the transfer of heat from the warm object to its surroundings. The insulator acts as a barrier, creating a buffer between the object and the cooler environment outside.
Is a cooler a conductor or insulator?
Insulator
Is a Styrofoam cooler conductor or insulator?
Styrofoam is an insulator. It has low thermal conductivity, meaning it does not conduct heat well, which helps to keep items inside the cooler cool.
Is a coat insulator or conductator?
A coat can act as an insulator by trapping heat close to the body and preventing it from escaping, thus helping to keep the wearer warm.
Is a tea cosy a thermal insulator or a thermal conductor?
A tea cosy is a thermal insulator. It helps to keep tea warm by trapping heat and preventing it from escaping.
What a insulator?
An insulator is something that keeps heat in, for example, if you put a piece of fake fur around a mug of Hot Chocolate, it would act as an insulator, and would keep the heat in the mug. x if u eant insulator..then it means a poor heat conducto, or poor conductor of electricity ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Materials that do not easily give up or take on electrons are called insulators.
What is the best insulator element on the periodic table?
I think its sulfer.Thats what I keep researching about.

Which is the best insulator stira foam card board aluminum foil or a plastic container?
stira foam is a better insulator because it will keep it warm
What is the best way to keep water warm without using a heating object?
The best way to do so be be to use a good thermal insulator. A thermos flask would suit this purpose.
Do you need an insulator to keep electricity flowing?
An insulator prevents electricity from flowing.
How do you keep something you borrowed?
If you borrowed something from a friend or someone you know, but want to keep it, it would be best to speak to the person you borrowed it from. You can ask the person if you buy the object, or ask if they will give it to you.
Why is fiber glass the best heat insulator?
I believe it is because the thin fibers allow for a lot of air to be held in it to keep it insulated.
Does insulation keep things cold?
yes and hot too. Insulation is a heat barrier -- it tries to prevent heat exchange between the two sides. Vacuum is the best. Then air. Metals are the worst. ====================
Why is tin not a good insulator?
This is because tin is an excellent conductor of heat, meaning, heat passes right through it. So if you are trying to keep something hot from getting cold, the heat will escape and if you are trying to keep something cold from melting then heat will get in and melt it.
Is a cooler a conductor or insulator?
Insulator
What is an insulator and one example?
An insulator is something that stops the transmissions of the different types of energy from one place to another. One example is insulation (such as fiberglass in your walls or attic); another example is the rubber coating on electric cords to keep sparks or electricity from escaping.
