Why new quilt warmer than old quilt?
A quilt feels warm because the air trapped in the cotton or woolen batting acts as an insulator and does not allow the heat of the body to escape. However, when the quilt gets old - the cotton/wool gets compressed and the airspace are done away with. It does not remain as good an insulator to heat as it was earlier. Hence it feels less warm.
Is a quilt a type of thermal insulator?
Yes it is
Why is a quilt a better insulator than a woolen blanket?
A quilt has several layers while a blanket has only one.
Is potato an insulator of heat?
a potato is not an heat insulator because it's skin,but if you take the skin off it will be a heat insulator
Is sponge a good heat insulator?
it is good heat insulator, as it has air in it. as air is a good insulator of heat, the sponge, which has lots of pockets of air also becomes a good insulator
Is graphite a heat conductor or insulator?
insulator
An object that can transfer heat easily is an?
An insulator. More specifically, a thermal (heat) insulator, as opposed to an electrical insulator, which suppresses the flow of electricity.
What is a good insulator and why?
a good insulator of heat keeps the heat in, so you stay warm
What does the term 'insulator' means?
insulator is a object that is not a good conductorSo it keeps the heat in.
What does a heat insulator do?
. A insulator is an element in the genetic code.
Why is insulation a good insulator?
a good insulator of heat keeps the heat in, so you stay warm
Does a thermal insulator keep heat in or out or both?
an ideal thermal insulator does not conduct heat at all,so it keeps heat out!
