Understanding Thermal Conductors and Insulators in Energy Transfer
Today's lesson focuses on energy transfer, specifically on conductors and insulators. Learn about the characteristics of thermal conductors and insulators, how they affect the flow of thermal energy, and their real-life applications. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to distinguish between materials that assist or limit thermal energy transfer.

Energy: Conservation & Transfer Learning Target: At the end of this lesson, you will be able to explain the suitability of materials to conduct or insulate energy.
Essential Question Which materials assist or limit thermal energy transfer?
THERMAL THERMAL CONDUCTORS CONDUCTORS Some materials are good conductors of thermal energy they let heat pass through them easily.
THERMAL THERMAL CONDUCTORS CONDUCTORS METALS, such as aluminium, copper, and steel are good good THERMAL CONDUCTORS ...because heat passes through them quickly metal normally feels COLD COLD
Conductor Conductor a material that transfers thermal or electrical energy very well. THERMAL THERMAL CONDUCTORS CONDUCTORS Conductors allow energy (thermal and electrical) to easily flow through them
Wooden handle Oven Mitt THERMAL INSULATORS THERMAL INSULATORS Some materials do not let heat pass through them
THERMAL INSULATORS THERMAL INSULATORS Insulators are poor conductors of both thermal and electrical energy
THERMAL THERMAL INSULATORS INSULATORS
Insulators and Conductors both have important Uses
Insulators and Conductors both have important Uses
