it is an excellent insulator and poor conductor of heat. it takes a lot of heat energy to change the temperature because water doesn't heat up easily.

Does a pop can stay cooler longer when aluminum foil is wrapped around it?

Aluminum foil does not keep a soda pop cooler for longer periods of time since aluminum is not an insulator. Foam can wrappers do insulate and keep soda cooler for longer periods of time.


Why does a piece of water melon stay cool for a longer time than sandwiches when both of them are taken out from the refrigerator on a hot day?

Well, a watermelon has a much higher specific heat than a sandwich. This is because Water (H2O) has an unusually high specific heat, and the watermelon contains much more water than the sandwich. The higher the specific heat of an object the more calories it takes to increase its temperature, this applies to cooling as well. So, a watermelon will take longer to get cold, but it will stay cool longer.Another factor is the surface area in comparison to each objects mass. The Watermelon, in a sense, insulates the temperature of the cooler.

How long will a watermelon last?

That depends on how ripe it is to begin with - at most, a fully ripe watermelon at room temperature will last a day or two (depending on the heat of the room - cooler will make it last longer). If the watermelon is unripe to begin with, it could last upto a week (again, depending upon the heat of the room).

What lasts longer PS3 slim or PS3 fat?

PS3 slim lasts longer. The PS3 slim uses less power and runs cooler. The cooler temperature always allows electronic components to last longer and that is one reason some use fans to help keep the temperature down.
