The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.

A person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force. The force with which the earth is attract

suter [353]

Answer:

800 N

Explanation:

By Newton's third law which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, as the earth attracts the person towards its center, the person attracts the earth towards itself with the same magnitude of force but in the opposite direction.

Since the person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force, the the earth is attracted toward the person with an 800 N reaction force.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

T=0.827s

Explanation:

The period of a spring can be calculated with the equation

$T=2\pi w$

But we know as well that w is given by,

$w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

Replacing,

$w=\frac{2\pi}{T}= \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.4}{23.1}}$

So we have that

$T=0.827s$

molecular cloud <interstellar cloud <1 Msun protostar <1 Msun star <intercloud gas

Explanation:

Molecular cloud- They are a variety of interstellar cloud in which molecular hydrogen can sustain themselves. They have a very low temperature ranging from -440 to -370 degrees Fahrenheit or between 10 to 50 Kelvin. Owing to their extremely low temperature, they appear mostly dark when viewed through telescopes.

Interstellar cloud- They are a congregation of a large number of interstellar gases, dust and plasma in any galaxy or universe. They have varying temperature depending on their proximity to a star. E.g. Neutral hydrogen atom clouds have a temperature of around just 100 Kelvin while those in the near vicinity of a star have temperatures as high as 10,000 Kelvin.

1 Msun star- These stars have temperature anywhere between 5300 and 6000 Kelvin. The main source of such high surface temperature is nuclear fusion process where elemental hydrogen molecules are fused to form helium molecules.

1 Msun protostar- protostar is rather a young star which is still in formation phase (i.e. gathering mass from the parent molecular cloud). They have temperature anywhere between 2000-3000 kelvin and are accompanied by dust usually.

Intercloud gas- These are the remainder gases that are spread throughout the interstellar space. This Intercloud gas is divided into warm intercloud medium and extremely hot coronal gas with temperatures comparing to Sun’s corona. Warm intercloud forms the dominant part of intercloud gas with a temperature around 8000 Kelvin.
