Study Notes
Conductivity
- The ability of a substance to allow heat or electricity to flow through it.
- Examples of good conductors include metals like copper and aluminum.
- Examples of poor conductors include wood, plastic, and rubber.
Magnetism
- Attraction or repulsion between magnetic objects.
- Magnets have two poles - north and south.
- Like poles repel each other, while opposite poles attract.
Ductile
- The ability of a material to be stretched into a wire.
- This property is essential for creating wires for electrical circuits.
- Examples of ductile materials include copper, silver, and gold.
