What makes a paper cup a good insulator?
A paper cup is not the best insulator. A better insulated cup is the foam cup. However, it is better insulated than other materials such as a metal canteen, due the the heat capacities of the materials. Putting two paper cups to together acts as a decent insulator due to the air between the two cups. This is due the to air being a poor conductor of heat.
What are insulated wires made out of?
An insulated wire is made of a conductor surrounded by an insulating 'jacket'.
One hundred twenty grams of metal at 88 degree Celsius is poured into a 70 grams insulated cup contains 250 grams of water at 16 degree Celsius.The final temperature of the mixture is 17.5 degree celc?
It is not possible to answer the question without information about the specific heat of the metal and of the cup.

What cools faster a foam mug a metal mug an insulated mug or a ceramic mug?
An insulated mug will keep liquids hot for several hours. If the question refers to a typical styrofoam cup, that is the one that will cool the fastest. Heat equalises more quickly with the outside temperature.
What is the Difference between air insulated substation and gas insulated substation?
Air insulated substation means air acts as the dielectric medium but in case of gas insulated substation SF6 is the dielectric medium. Gas insulated substations are having more advantages than air insulated substations.
