Energy Transfer and Conductivity Concepts

This video tutorial covers the topic of materials and conductivity, focusing on why some materials are good conductors of heat and electricity while others are insulators. It explains the properties of conductors, such as metals, and insulators, like wood and plastic. The tutorial also discusses practical applications, identifying conductors and insulators in everyday appliances. The video concludes with a summary and instructions for completing module activities.
