The answer depends on how you define "keeps heat in better". A larger cup with the same contents at the same temperature will loose more heat than a smaller cup because it has more surface area than the smaller cup and the heat transfer would be proportional to surface area. On the other hand, the relative heat loss compared to the total energy of the cup contents would be less in the large cup than the small cup because while the surface area increases with the square of the dimensions, the volume, and hence mass would increase with the cube of the dimensions; if you double the height and diameter of a cylinder, you get 4 times the surface area but 8 times the volume. Even if you got 4 times the rate of heat loss, you would be taking it from 8 times the amount of material, so proportionally, each gram of material in the large cup would be losing heat only half as fast as the material in the small cup - its just that there are more total grams in the large cup.

How do you make an atom model of beryllium?
To make a simple atom model of beryllium, you can use two small Styrofoam balls representing protons and two small Styrofoam balls representing neutrons in the nucleus, with two larger Styrofoam balls representing electrons orbiting around the nucleus. You can attach these components together with toothpicks to represent the atomic structure of beryllium.
What do you mean by Styrofoam balls?
Small balls made of styrofoam. Craft stores sell them in various sizes.
What would happen if you put small pieces of Styrofoam into water?
If you put small pieces of Styrofoam into water, they would float on the surface due to their low density and buoyancy. Styrofoam is made of polystyrene, which is a lightweight material that does not dissolve in water. Over time, the pieces may become waterlogged if they absorb moisture, but they generally remain intact and do not break down easily in water. The environmental impact of Styrofoam in water bodies can be significant, as it can contribute to pollution and harm aquatic life.
Where is a compact tractor a better use?
i would recommend a compact tractor for small backyard excavation. it is easier to turn and fit into small spaces with a compact, whereas a normal tractor would be better for larger tasks because you can get the job done faster.
Can small galaxies be eaten by larger ones?
"Eaten" seems a little extreme. "Merged would be a better term, but either way the answer is "yes".
Why did the small state supported the New Jersey plan?
the small states liked the "New Jersey plan", because they wanted the larger states to count the slaves as taxation and not as representation, and that way it would be better for them!! :) --- DAISY <33
Is a styrofoam ball heavier than a marble?
of course not although the size is different but the mass and volume does not depend on the size of the object if you try out the experiment on your own on perfect match and acs you will find out ! thank you and I am a child Stupid little genius!
How can you paste aluminum foil in styrofoam?
It is not recommended to paste aluminum foil directly onto styrofoam, as the adhesive may degrade the styrofoam material. If you need to adhere aluminum foil to styrofoam, consider using a non-toxic adhesive specifically designed for bonding these materials together. Be cautious and test the adhesive on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't damage the styrofoam.
Does a styrofoam cup equal 3 liters?
if its a small Styrofoam cup definitely not
Can tennis shoes that are too small be made larger?
yeah but its better to buy new ones.
How to make a model of a valley?
I would do this from a block of styrofoam. make each side the high ground, and carve out the valley in the centre. If there is a river or stream, lay a bed of glue or something smooth and paint it silvery. For fields get some fine sawdust and colour it with a small amount of watery green paint, then sprinkle it damp onto the styrofoam. It will stick there as it dries (if you have access to model railroad grass that's even better.)
Is diesel better then gasoline?
Not necessarily, they have different uses. Gasoline is better in small, high revving engines and diesel is much better for larger, slower engines in general.
