Lesson 5.3.3 - Conductors and Insulators

Описание

In lesson 3, we will be examining how heat can transfer differently through different materials. Some materials allow thermal energy to transfer to or from them easily. These materials are called conductors. Insulating materials, on the other hand, resist the transfer of thermal energy. Both conductors and insulators affect the ability of heat to transfer between objects and substances. We will look at several examples of conductors and insulators and will discuss the practical applications of these materials in our everyday lives. We will also be conducting experiments to determine which materials make the best conductors and insulators.
