प्रश्न
Distinguish between good conductors, resistors and insulators. Name two good conductors, two resistance and two insulators.
उत्तर
Substances that conduct electricity easily and offer very low resistance (opposition) to the flow of current are called good conductors. Examples: copper, silver
A resistor is an electrical component that limits or regulates the flow of electrical current in an electronic circuit. Resistors have comparatively high electrical resistance. Examples: constanan, nichrome
The substances that have infinitely high electrical resistance are called insulators. Examples: wood, rubber
