I assume you mean 2 inch thick foam sound board??? The answer lies in what type of foam specifically you are speaking of.Polyisocyanurate foam has an rvalue of approx. r-7 per inch,being one of the higher r value foams readily available in 4'x8' sheet size.Polystyrene foam board,commonly found in building centers and home centers,and commonly referred to as "Dow" board has an r value of approx. r-5 per inch.To calculate the 2" thickness you reference,simply double the r value given(r value is generally stated as "r value per inch".Thus ,2" polystyrene has an r value of r-10 (r-5/inch x 2).These are fairly general guidelines,and depending on your application,you may want to find more detailed specifications that speak to degradation of R value over time,properties and characteristics of various foam types,etc,etc.

What is the difference between lvalue and rvalue?

A variable is a named storage that can hold any value and has 2 values associated with it namely rvalue and lvalue. 'rvalue' is its data value that is its content and "lvalue" is its location value, that is memory address.


What is the R-value of 2-inch foam board?

What is the significance of the R-value of 2 foam board in terms of its insulation properties?

The R-value of 2 for foam board indicates its ability to resist heat flow. A higher R-value means better insulation, so a foam board with an R-value of 2 provides moderate insulation against heat transfer.


How much force does it take to break a 2 by 4 foam board?

The force required to break a 2 by 4 foam board will depend on the specific type of foam and its thickness. Generally, foam boards are designed to be lightweight and easy to break, so it may not require a significant amount of force. However, it would be difficult to provide an exact measurement without knowing the specific material properties of the foam board.

What is Lvalue in c?

An lvalue is an object that can be assigned a value, i.e. it can be on the left side of an equals sign, hence the term lvalue.If the compiler is complaining, you are probably trying to assign a new value to an rvalue, such as an array name or constant.

How does the copper backing plate provide dc power to the circuit board through the sandwiched foam?

I'm not at all sure what you are describing. If the "sandwiched foam" you mention is plastic foam between the circuit board and the copper plate then the copper plate has nothing at all to do with power, the copper plate is just a shield to prevent radiation and/or interference. This shield has one connection to ground and no other connections.Power is provided in a circuit board by internal traces and/or planes: digital ground, digital +V, analog ground, analog +V, analog -V. Sometimes boards use external power bars that are soldered to several pads on the board, each power bar has 2 or 3 conductors inside it and is semirigid. Power is not provided to a circuit board by an external copper plate.
