Question

7. Jasmine wants to prevent getting burned by accidently touching a hot metal pipe, What would be the worst

insulator for her to use to put around the pipe?
a, Glass
b. Rubber
c. Cloth
d. Wood

Answer 1

A) Glass

Step-by-step explanation:

Glass is a conductor, so it allows heat to go through it (Ex. Touching a pie pan that came right out of the oven)

Rubber is an insulator, so heat has a hard time passing through (Ex. Using a rubber grip on a cast iron pan.

Cloth is also an insulator, so heat has a hard time passing through (Ex. Using a pot holder to prevent the counter from getting scarred)

Wood is also an insulator, so heat has a hard time passing through (Ex. Bedding for a rabbit hutch)

Hope this helps!!
