What is the scientific name of a substance that lets electricity flow through it?
A substance that lets electricity flow through it is called a conductor (or sometimes, to be more explicit, it is called an electrical conductor). Substances which do not permit the flow of electricity are called insulators.
What is the definition of conductors and insulators?
A conductor is a material that can transfer energy efficiently and and insulator is the opposite.Conductor means something that blocks it and insulator means something that can go through itA conductor easily transfers energy in the form of electricity and/or heat, while an insulator does not easily transfer these types of energy.In electricity, a conductor is a material that can let current pass through and an insulator does not let current pass through,or rather copper is a conductor and plastic is an insulator.A insulator is something that will not allowheat/electricity to pass through it and a conductor is something that allows heat/electricity to pass through it.
What part of a circuit allows or stops the flow of electricity?
Battery
What is the wire coming out of the electric meter?
If you have a copper wire coming out it would be a"ground." This wire is there in case there is crossed wires inside the meter. It allows the electricity to seek the shortest route to the ground through the wire instead of through something dangerous or distructive.
What do you call an object that allows electricity to run throgh it easily?
Such an object is electrically conductive.
What allows electricity to pass through it?
An object which is a conductor allows electricity to pass through it
What do you call a material that allows electricity to flow through it easily?
A material that electricity can conduct electricity.
What allows electricity or heat to pass through it?
conductor
What type of liquid allows electricity to pass through?
Salt water conducts electricity
What allows electricity to flow through it easily?
A conductor.
What is a substance that allows electricity and heat to pass through?
Water
Material that allows electricity to pass through it easily?
Metallic conductors such as copper, aluminum, silver and gold are some examples of materials through which heat and electricity can easily flow.
What do you call something that allows heat or electricity to pass through it?
A material that allows heat or electricity to pass through it is called a conductor. The opposite of that is called an insulator. For electricity, the wire inside is the conductor, while the plastic on the outside is an insulator.
What is a material which allows electricity to flow through it but with but with resistance?
A "resistance" or "resistor".
What type of materials allows electricity to flow through them unimpeded?
Superconductors
What is any metal called that allows electricity to pass through it easily?
conductive
An material that allows electricity to pass through it easily?
It would be an electric conductor.
