    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.
