Okay, so my dad is controlling and of course took over my sceince fair project and im redoing it but i dont even understand itI have to retype my purpose questionand this is what he wrote What is the effect of a variety of surrounding insulation materials on heat retention in a simulated home environment and how much would you need of each material to match the best performing insulation?can you please help rewrite this into a question a 13 year old would right but still making it sound smartI must sound so stupid for asking thisbut i dont even understandor can you just help me understand how to write the questionill choose best answer right awayplease please pleaseits due tomarrow
metal will be hottest the fastest
i would answer this using 2 methods: Aintuitively, based on my own heat conduction experienceBdetermine the Heat conductivity of each material, from a chemistry handbookThe more she knows about this, the better the experiment she can design.
I've taken the liberty of putting brackets around the the terms your father used that may not be necessary, given your age: What is the effect of (a variety of surrounding) insulation (materials) on (heat retention in) a (simulated) home (environment) and how much would you need of each material to match the best performing insulation? Simplified, his statement says: What is the effect of insulation on a home and how much would you need of each material to match the best performing insulation? Here are a few more straight forward statements: How does home insulation work, and what types and amounts of insulation are needed? OR How does insulation work in a home, and what kinds of insulation are most useful?
