Question

Give some uses of conductor and insulators

Answer 1

Conductors have wide range of applications in our lives. Electricity pass through conductors, the utensils on which we cook food are conductors. Insulators are used in switches boards and coating on plastic is also insulator. Conductors are metals that make electrical wires.

Answer 2

$\huge{Conductor:}$



1) It is a type of material which allows the electric current or heat pass through it.


2) They have free electron. Due to this they have ability to conduct.


3) The resistivity of conductor varies from high to low.


4) All metals are the conductor.


5) Conductors are $used$ to make the wire and electrical circuits.


6) Example :- Iron, copper etc.

$\huge{Insulators\::}$



1) It is a type of material which don't allow the electric current or heat pass through it.


2) They don't have free electron. Due to this they don't have ability to conduct.


3) The resistivity of insulators is vert high.


4) All non-metals are the insulators.


5) Insulators are $used$ to coat the electric wire with insulator materials.


6) Example :- Wood and rubber.
