AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the object is a conductor or an insulator based on the conduction tester's results, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Function of the Conduction Tester A conduction tester is a device used to check whether an object allows electric current to pass through it. It typically consists of a bulb that lights up when current flows. ### Step 2: Analyze the Result In this case, when the conduction tester was used on the object, the bulb began to glow. This indicates that electric current is flowing through the object. ...
