What is the same? What is different?

What is the difference between a


conductor and an insulator?
What are these
Is this electrical
an open components?
or closed circuit?
bulb

cell wire

switch
It is a closed circuit. The bulb is lit up.
Help Diddy sort these materials into
metals and non-metals.
Metals Non-metals

Which of these materials will conduct electricity?


Why will the bulb not light up?

There is no cell and the circuit is not complete.


The circuit is now closed.

Why does a circuit need to be closed?


To allow energy to flow around the circuit.
What will happen if we use rock to close the circuit?
Why does the bulb not light up?

Rock is an insulator.
It does not allow energy to flow.
What will happen if we use a coin instead?
Why does the bulb light up?

Metal
What type of is a conductor

will conduct electricity?
It allows energy to flow.
I think the only insulator
is rock.

I think other materials


can be insulators of
electricity.

Who do you agree with? Why?


Tiny is correct. Plastic and wood are also electrical insulators.
