What are insulator? Name two liquid insulators
Answers
An electrical insulator is a material whose internal electric charges do not flow freely; very little electric current will flow through it under the influence of an electric field. ... Some materials such as glass, paper and Teflon, which have high resistivity, are very good electrical insulators.Insulator is any material that prevents the passage of electricity through it. ... Now imagine if you could use a liquid to act as the electrical shield, these are the liquid insulators. These include various mineral oils, silicone oil and many organic liquids.
Hi friend
How are you?
Here is your answer:-
ANSWER:-
Insulators possess a high resistivity and low conductivity. Their atoms have tightly bound electrons that do not move throughout the material. Because the electrons are static and not freely roaming, a current cannot easily pass. In addition to protecting loss of current, insulators make an electrical current more efficient by concentrating the flow.
Mineral oils, silicone oil and many organic liquids are liquid insulators.
I hope this answer may help you.
Thank you,
Goodbye and have a nice day.
