Electricity

Vocabulary
Semiconductor - substances that has more resistance than insulator but less than a conductor
Insulator - a material that electric current cannot move easily through such as air, plastic, glass, and rubber.
Comparing and Contrasting
A semiconductor has more resistance than an insulator. But an insulator doesn't let electric currents move really easily.
A conductor and an insulator aren't the same in anyways. A conductor lets the currents move easily but an insulator doesn't let them move so easily.
Examples and Daily life Examples.
Semiconductor - In the construction area of work, the the main worker turned on the tractor, well the tractor did not turn on just then but it took a second or two.
Insulator - When you turn on your lights, it takes minutes or hours to turn on because the insulator doesn't let the electrical currents move easily.
