Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Conductors vs. Insulators worksheet

Task Explanation:


The task is to identify whether each object in the images is a conductor or an insulator of electricity. Conductors allow electric current to pass through them easily, while insulators do not.

Solution:



#### 1. Towel
- Material: Typically made of cotton or synthetic fibers.
- Conductivity: Insulator (fibers do not conduct electricity well).
- Answer: I

#### 2. Bicycle Tire
- Material: Rubber and fabric.
- Conductivity: Insulator (rubber is a poor conductor).
- Answer: I

#### 3. Scissors
- Material: Metal blades.
- Conductivity: Conductor (metal conducts electricity well).
- Answer: C

#### 4. Glass Cup
- Material: Glass.
- Conductivity: Insulator (glass does not conduct electricity).
- Answer: I

#### 5. Basketball
- Material: Leather or rubber exterior, with air inside.
- Conductivity: Insulator (leather and rubber are poor conductors).
- Answer: I

#### 6. Copper Coil
- Material: Copper.
- Conductivity: Conductor (copper is an excellent conductor of electricity).
- Answer: C

#### 7. Chain
- Material: Metal links.
- Conductivity: Conductor (metal conducts electricity well).
- Answer: C

#### 8. Baseball Bat
- Material: Wood.
- Conductivity: Insulator (wood does not conduct electricity).
- Answer: I

#### 9. Eraser
- Material: Rubber.
- Conductivity: Insulator (rubber is a poor conductor).
- Answer: I

#### 10. Balloon
- Material: Latex rubber.
- Conductivity: Insulator (latex rubber does not conduct electricity).
- Answer: I

Final Answers:


1. I
2. I
3. C
4. I
5. I
6. C
7. C
8. I
9. I
10. I

Boxed Answer:


\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
1. & \text{I} \\
2. & \text{I} \\
3. & \text{C} \\
4. & \text{I} \\
5. & \text{I} \\
6. & \text{C} \\
7. & \text{C} \\
8. & \text{I} \\
9. & \text{I} \\
10. & \text{I} \\
\end{array}
}
