CONDUCTORS OF ELECTRICITY

Conductors are the materials or substances which allow electricity to flow through them. They conduct electricity because they allow electrons to flow easily inside them from atom to atom. Also, conductors allow the transmission of heat or light from one source to another.

EXAMPLE:

humans, earth, and animals are all conductors. This is the reason we get electric shocks! Moreover, the human body is a good conductor. 



GOOD CONDUCTORS OF ELECTRICITY:






 GOOD CONDUCTORS ARE THOSE MATERIAL WHICH ALSO ELECTRICITY TO PASS THROUGH IT EASILY. ALSO THEY CAN BE USED TO MAKE ELECTRIC CIRCUIT.


EXAMPLES:
  •                         COPPER
  •                         ALUMINIUM
  •                          TAP WATER
  •                           LEMON JUICE
  •                            MERCURY
  •                             SILVER
  •                              GOLD
  •                               STEEL
  •                              IRON 
  •                              SEA WATER
  •                            

  1.                              




BAD CONDUCTOR OF ELECTRICITY:



BAD CONDUCTOR ARE THOSE MATERIAL WHICH DO NOT ALLOW ELECTRICITY TO PASS THROUGH IT EASILY. ALSO THEY CANNOT BE USED TO MAKE ELECTRIC CIRCUIT.

EXAMPLES: 
  •                          DISTILLED WATER
  •                           WOOD
  •                             ALCOHOL
  •                             PLASTIC 
  •                              RUBBER
  •                             AIR
  •                              OIL
  •                              PURE WATER
  •                              DRY COTTON
  •                               QUARTZ
  •                               DRY PAPER





INSULATORS:

  1. a material of such low conductivity that the flow of current through it is negligible.
  2. insulating material, often glass or porcelain, in a unit form designed so as to support a charged conductor and electrically isolate it.
   Insulators are materials that inhibit the flow of electrical current. The opposite     of conductors, which allow electric particles to flow freely, insulators are         implemented in household items and electrical circuits as protection. Thermal     insulation is similar, but it constricts the flow of heat rather than electricity.

  Theory of intelligence What is intelligence?   The word intelligence is derived from the word "intelligentia" which means "to understand". It is defined as the ability to perceive and retain the knowledge. Intelligence has been defined in many ways in terms of logic, understanding, self aware, learning, creativity etc. Many psychologists talked about the theory of intelligence like Spearmen, Thurstone, Gardner, Sternberg. Today we will discuss about " TRIARCHIC THEORY OF INTELLIGENCE " . In 1985 Robert Sternberg proposed theory. It is called TRIARCHIC theory because he talks about intelligence in three aspects . Kinds of intelligence? The three aspects are: PRACTICAL INTELLIGENCE CREATIVE INTELLIGENCE ANALYTICAL INTELLIGENCE 1 ) Practical intelligence : in this type sternberg talk about ability of a person to interact with everyday world successfully. it is also called "contexual intelligence". Such people deal with everyday task which is rel...

MATHAMATICIAN TO MATHEMAGIAN

 Mathamatician To Mathemagian A mathematician is someone who use an extensive knowledge of maths in their work whereas mathemagician is a mathematician who is also a magician, one who play with numbers and combine math with magic. Basically mathematics is not everyone cup of tea because for many it is a nightmare. Mathematical anxiety is very common in several students. Mathematical anxiety also known as math phobia,is anxiety about one's ability to do mathematics. It is a phenomenon that is often considered when examining students's problems in mathematics. But for 30 year old VIVEK RAJ from KERALA alppuzha district playing with numbers is just like a breeze. Give him any number 2 OR 3 Digit to multiply,add,subtract, he will do it as fast as lightening. He can do calculations quickly in his head. VIVEK was in class 7 when his father gifted him a calculator but by the time he grew up, he himself became the calculator. " I WAS INTERESTED IN NUMBER RIGHT FROM CHILDHOOD. I...

 NEW YEAR RESOLUTION Every year, millions of people make New Year’s resolutions, hoping to spark positive change. The recurring themes each year include a more active approach to health and fitness, improved finances, and learning new things for personal and professional development. most common resolutions will look familiar to you: Exercise more Lose weight Get organized Learn a new skill or hobby  Live life to the fullest Save more money / spend less money Quit smoking Spend more time with family and friends Travel more Your plans for New Year's 2021 are going to be a lot different than what they used to be — you may be trading in  a New Year's Eve party  for more time on the couch in front of  a festive New Year's movie  — and your resolutions may look different, too. It's still tradition to decide on a few New Year's resolutions  before the ball drops on December 31 , and this year, a renewed focus on your health may be top of mind. Or, you may be...
