A plastic cup holds more heat because plastic can't take out heat. Glass conducts heat away.
cars don't have plastic radiators, if they do the plastic would probably melt, and the compound of metal cools and heats quickly which is useful in cooling water.
Water freezes faster in metal compared to plastic due to the higher thermal conductivity of metal. This means that heat is transferred more efficiently from the water to the metal, allowing it to cool down more rapidly. In contrast, plastic has lower thermal conductivity, leading to slower heat transfer and a longer freezing time for the water.
Water in a metal cup will freeze faster because metal conducts coldness and energy the most. trust me, I did a project with a metal, plastic, glass, and paper to see which cup would freeze the quickest. Hopefully this answer helped.
In general, foam is a better insulator than metal, and so foam would be expected to keep water hotter longer under most normal circumstances.
No, paper will not keep water cold for the longest time. A metal cup will keep water the same temperature for the longest time. I know this because I did a science experiment about this but instead of cold water I used hot, which won't really make a difference. The next would be glass then paper.
I think its a plastic.
a styrofoam cup. i tried it on my science project
probably metal
Metal shower heads look nicer but show hard water, plastic will not show hard water, if you have a water softener a metal shower head is the way to go.
When you put metal in water it cools down quick. When you put plastic in the microwave, you're in for a big problem....Plastic is the answer.
metal cup because it has insulation
Scissors are typically made of metal which is denser than water, so they usually sink rather than float in water. However, lightweight plastic scissors may float in water.
