What is the material that slows or stops the flow of energy such as heat?

Resistance does not 'slow down' current, it limits the current.
The ability of a substance to slow down current is a function of the number of charge carriers per cubic metre of that material.

∙ 9y agoAny material that slows the flow of electrons - without stopping them completely - is called a resistor.
Someone said the answer is "insulators" but that is wrong because insulators prevent any flow of electrons.
Another Answer
Resistors do not necessarily 'slow down' the drift of current; they reduce the quantity of that current.

What material stops the flow of electrical current?
Light energy
What is a material that slows the flow of heat and electricity?
An insulator is a material that slows the flow of heat and electricity. Electrical wires need insulators periodically along it's length over whatever distance.
What material slows the flow of an electrical charge the most?
Rubber, like the bottom of a pair of tennis shoes.
Does heat energy flow indefinitely?
No, heat does not flow indefinitely. Heat stops flowing the temperatures are equal.
When will the flow of heat energy stop?
When the heat is traveling in the form of radiation, there's no reason for it to stop as long as the source is active. In the conductive and convective situations, the flow of heat from one material or object to the other stops when their temperatures are equal.

What is a material that slows down or resists the flow of current and is used in electrical systems?
Resistor
How does the rate of blood flow change when a person stops exercising?
when a person IS exercising, their blood flow speeds up as their heart is pumping more blood around the body, so when a person stops exercising, their blood flow gradually slows down

When the flow of a river slows is the sediment deposited?
Yes, when the flow of a river slows the sediment is deposited.
What is the flow of energy from one material to another called?
Matter.
What material tries to prevent thermal flow of energy?
Insulators.
What stops the flow of electrons in a circuit?
all passive elements which absorb energy from active elements can control the flow of electrons
when the flow of a river does what the sediment is deposited?
The flow of water slows enough for the silt to be deposited.
