thermal lag
What transfer thermal energy from inside a room to outside which is similar to a refrigerator?
air conditioner
Why the inside temperature of igloos is high as compared to outside temperature?
Because igloose are made up of ice.
How does the thickness of insulation affect how quickly hot water cools down?
Keeping in mind that insulation does allow the limited flow of thermal energy through its material, imagine if you will, a wall of around 1m thickness. On one side of the wall, the temperature is 100oC, while on the other the temperature is 0oC. The 100C side of the wall will start absorbing heat from the environment and will transfer part of that heat inside the wall, lets say at 10cm depth. That part of the wall will start heating up and its temperature will rise. Since its temperature has now risen, it will start transferring heat to the 20cm depth inside the wall. Of course keep in mind that in reality the transfer of heat and temperature change is smooth like a ramped and not in steps like my example above. This will go on all the way through to the other side of the wall. This way, a temperature gradient will be formed inside the wall. The thickness of the wall dictates the form of the temperature gradient, thus it dictates the rate of heat transfer from the inside to the outside (higher to lower temperature). This is displayed by Fouriers' Law, ΔQ/Δt=-Ak ΔT/Δx Where ΔT is the difference in temperature between the inside and outside, Δx, the thickness of the "insulator", A the surface area, k the conductivity and ΔQ/Δt is the rate of heat transfer. The larger Δx is, the lower the heat transfer will be.
What is inside when it is outside and what is outside when it is inside?
A door is a common object that fits this description. When a door is closed, it appears as a solid barrier on the outside but allows entry to the inside. When the door is open, the inside becomes visible from the outside, blurring the distinction between the two spaces.
Should you open your windows on hot days?
If the house temperature inside is greater than the temperature outside the house, then yes. If the temperature outside the home is greater than the temperature inside of the home, then no.
What temperature does it have to be to go home?
Inside or outside?
Does the inside temperature of a endotherm change if the outside temperature change?
yes
How do you calculate the area of on incomplete rectangle?
It is not clear what you mean by an incomplete rectangle. If it means the rectangle is not closed then there is a problem of defining its area: what is inside and what is outside when you do not have a boundary?

When can you put houseplants outside?
As soon as regular outside temperature is similar to where you had the plants inside
What is the delay in transfer of thermal energy from outside to inside is called?
thermal lag
How does insulation keep a building warm?
By slowing the transfer of energy from inside to outside.
What would you do if temperature outside was -3 Celsius?
Stay inside.
What is the normal temperature of an 8 year girl?
Inside or outside?
What is a themos flask?
It's a container that keeps liquid at the same temperature despite the surrounding temperature, buy minimising the amount of heat transfer from inside to outside. It uses a gap between an inner and outer vessel, that acts as an insulating layer.
