How do you hang foam core sheets from the ceiling when the exsisting joists are 30x40 inches apart?
It sounds like who ever built the structure never intended to hang anything from the joists. You are not adding allot of weight, but I would still add a joist 2 x 4 so you have 24" centers to work with. that way all of your outside edges and the center will be supported when using 4' x 8' sheets.

How do you hang three different sizes pictures as a set?
First, I love that you are using an odd number of items in your set. Odd numbers are definitely preferred over even numbers when referring to accent items in decorating.
Second, my preferred method of hanging different sized pictures is to think of a sideways triangle. The largest picture would go in the top left hand corner of your "triangle". The second largest item would go in the bottom left hand corner of your "triangle", however (and this is the most important part) hang the picture halfway in under the top picture. The smallest item forms the point of the "triangle".

What is the standard ceiling height of a residential home bedroom?
In the US, the standard length for studs (the vertical boards that sustain a wall) is 92 5/8". In making a wall, the studs are fastened to 2 x 4 sill plates at the bottom, and a doubled top plate at the top. The top and bottom plates, all 2 x 4's (in most cases), are nominally 1.5" in thickness. That makes the total thickness of the plates 4 1/2 inches.
The sill plate is attached to the floor, and the ceiling joists rest on the uppermost top plate. So, from floor to ceiling, in a framed structure, the distance is 92 5/8" plus 4 1/2 inches, giving a total of 97 1/8 inches.
96 inches is 8 feet, which is considered the standard distance from floor to ceiling. But, in framing, consideration is given to additional ceiling and flooring materials which will be used.
Most bedrooms will have carpet, and gypsum board covers the ceiling. The gypsum board (sheetrock) is 1/2 inch thick, and carpet is usually 3/4 thick. Adding these together, you have 1-1/4 inches that will be subtracted from the original framing height, to give the finished height of a typical modern ceiling.
Since the framing height is 8 feet and 1-1/8 inches, the typical height of a conventional residential home's ceiling will be 1/8" shy of eight feet, or seven feet, eleven and seven-eighths inches.
