The ability of a material to let heat or electricity pass through
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to transfer a phone call through a series of people in a game of telephone. Just like how the message needs to pass clearly and quickly from person to person to maintain its original intent, conductivity describes how efficiently heat or electricity can travel through a material. In this analogy, each person represents a particle within the material, and the clarity and speed of the message passing through them represent the material's ability to conduct heat or electricity effectively.
