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.

the ocean floor is, on average, 4267 m below sea level. What is the pressure in the atmosphere at this depth?

hichkok12 [17]

The pressure at the depth h in the ocean is given by (Stevin's law)
$p= p_0 + \rho g h$
where
$p_0 = 1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa$ is the atmospheric pressure
and $\rho g h$ is the pressure exerted by the column of water of height h=4267 m, with $\rho = 1000 kg/m^3$ being the water density and $g=9.81 m/s^2$ .
Substituting, we find
$p=1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.81 m/s^2)(4267 m)=4.20 \cdot 10^7 Pa$
We want to convert this into atmospheres: we know that 1 atm corresponds to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, so $1 atm=1.0\cdot 10^5 Pa$ , therefore we just need to divide by this number:
$p= \frac{4.20 \cdot 10^7 Pa}{1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa/atm} =420 atm$

In an experiment, an object is released from rest from the top of a building. Its speed is measured as it reaches a point that i

NikAS [45]

Answer:

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Explanation:

As we know that the air friction or resistance due to air is neglected then we can use the equation of kinematics here

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$
