Why is one room always colder or hotter than the rest of your house?

There are many variables that cause one room to be colder or hotter than the rest of your house. Some of them are: the location of the room, the efficiency of the heating, cooling and air conditioning (HVAC) system and the insulation of the walls, windows, ceiling, floors, etc.
In the warmer months of the year (summer) the sun is high and moves from east to west in the southern sky . . . so rooms on the south side of your house tend to be warmer; in the winter the direction of the prevailing winds can blow against one side of your house and make rooms on that side cooler.
If you have a floor or wall furnace with one outlet the rooms closest will be warmer and if you have central heating with individual heat outlets in each room the colder room may have less flow of heated air to it. If you have air conditioning that same room will probably be receiving less cooled air on hot days and if it's on the south side of your house it will be even hotter.
Having insulation in the walls, ceiling, roof, floors and insulated windows and doors will keep rooms from becoming hotter in the summer and will keep the heat in and the cold out better in the winter.
Weather stripping helps keep the outside temperature from getting in and the inside temperature from getting out.

Can You Put Plastic in a Freezer?
Plastic does not have a freezing point, but as with most materials, the colder temperature weakens the structural integrity. Take concrete for example, it doesn't have a freezing point, yet the cracks you see are from extreme cold.

Newton's law of motion- states that forces always act in equal but opposite pairs?
Yep. But this is Newton's THIRD law of motion. He actually came up with three laws of motion that we use today.1: An object in motion will remain in motion and an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by another force.2: An object acted upon by a force will accelerate in the direction of that force.3: Forces always act in equal but opposite pairs.-(Basic definitions!)-

Why is a magnifying glass so hot under the sun?
Much of the area under a magnifying glass will be far colder than the area not covered by it. Only a small point or area will be hot, and much hotter at that. This is because the light striking the glass is refracted and focused toward a point of convergence. The result is that our small place gets much hotter - as it receives all of the light concentrated - and the rest gets colder - because it isn't receiving any direct light.
