Answer

The difference between good conductors, resistors, and insulators are as follows:

The materials that are having less or low electrical resistance are known as good conductors. Copper and iron are the two examples of good conductors.

The materials that are having comparatively high resistance are known as resistors. Manganin and nichrome are the two examples of resistors.

The materials that are having infinitely high resistance are known as insulators. Wood and rubber are the two examples of insulators.
