_____-____SCIENCE PROJECT PROPOSAL FROM____ ------- Question Which lunch box brand is the best thermal insulator‚ Thermos‚ California Innovations or Zeomic? hypothesis/prediction Thermos Lunch Box is the best thermal insulator because it is more expensive than the other two lunch box types. If Thermos lunch box is the best thermal insulator then food in it should maintain its original temperature longer than the other two lunch box types. Identify Dependent Variable: Lunch box type

Summary of Topological insulators Topological insulators (TI) are materials that behave as insulators in their interiors or bulks while permitting the movement of charges (metallic) on their surface. Inside these materials‚ as conventional insulators‚ the energy band structures are shown large energy gap‚ as shown as Fig. 1 (a) red and blue bands‚ and Fermi level is falling between conduction and valence bands. At room temperature‚ T is about 300 K‚ the gap is so wide that electrons energy level

Why will insulators affect how long a test tube of hot water stays hot? Background Information I know that there are many different ways of insulating this test tube‚ shiny foil can be used because it’s a poor emitter of radiation and it will reflect escaping heat by reflecting‚ because this method is used in flasks to keep hot drinks warm. Though it is a good conductor so will lose heat through to surfaces its touching but it shouldn’t matter because it will be touching air and glass which both

of transferring ……electrons.. to or from it. 3. In an experiment‚ an insulator becomes negatively charged when it is rubbed with a dry cloth. a) In terms of electron transfer‚ explain why the insulator becomes negatively charge The insulator gains electrons from the dry cloth when they rub together. This rubbing gives the insulator a negative charge and the cloth a positive charge. j) Explain why the insulator does not lose its charge. When you rub the cloth‚ you cause the

concept is through a simple demonstration. An insulator is a material that does not allow a transfer of electricity or energy. Materials that are poor thermal conductors can also be described as being good thermal insulators. Well-insulated buildings need less energy for heating than buildings that have no insulation. Two building materials that are being used more and more worldwide‚ are mineral wool and polystyrene. Mineral wool is a good insulator because it holds air still in the matrix of the
