Assuming they are the same or similar shape and volume, water in glass would freeze first, then plastic then foam. Foam allows transfer of heat out of water more slowly than plastic and the glass probably has the highest rate of heat radiation of the three.

It's best to use a styrofoam container with a lid. Styrofoam will not get as hot as glass or plastic.

What are good examples of heat?

vacuum, styrofoam, plastic, wood, glass, rubber


What type of cup keeps water warm the longest-plastic paper styrofoam or glass and why?

Styrofoam because it has a thick layer and is a good insulator.Paper and plastic are could alternatives but Styrofoam would work better, therefore glass would be the worst one to use because it would only keep it warm for a couple of minutes.

Which type of cup will keep a hot drink, warm longer paper, plastic, Styrofoam or glass?

Styrofoam cups are generally the best at keeping hot drinks warm for a longer period of time. This is because Styrofoam is an excellent insulator, meaning it does not conduct heat well and therefore helps to keep the temperature of the drink constant. Paper cups and plastic cups are also decent insulators, but they are not as effective as Styrofoam. Glass cups are poor insulators and are not recommended for keeping hot drinks warm.


What is a material that has a high resistance?

Diamond, rubber, plastic, styrofoam, ice, wood, glass, paper, concrete.


What type of cup keeps water warm the longest-plastic paper styrofoam or glass and why results?

A glass cup would keep water warm the longest because glass is a good insulator and retains heat well compared to plastic, paper, or styrofoam which are poorer insulators. This is because glass has a lower thermal conductivity compared to the other materials, so heat escapes more slowly.
