your solution is given below..

your question is - an umbrella with a wooden rod is better than a metal rod. why?

yes, it's absolutely correct that an umbrella with a wooden rod is better than a metal rod.

as we know that wood is a poor conductor of electricity and heat and don't conduct any electricity if it's not wet. whereas metal is a very good conductor of heat and electricity.

so, there are two reasons..

we use umbrella in a rainy season na...

we know that during rainy season, thunder and lightning happens. so, if the umbrella is with metal rod. then it can conduct electricity and we may get an electric shock. whereas if the umbrella is with wooden rod then it can't conduct electricity as it's bad conductor and thus it will protect us from the effect of lightning.

hope it's right answer and will help u..
