im doing a science fair project and im trying to find out wat material best absorbs cold temperature not fabrici have to make boxes out of different materials and but something cold in it like ice creami have to find out which material absorbs the best temperatureim doing my research paper and i cant find the answerplz helpnd any ideas of what materials i should make the boxes out of? i was thinking woodshedrockStyrofoamand i cant think of anything else.
She left him and now he can't recover, uses prostitutes, has spiraled down to emptiness, like so manyOr at least that's what I see You are in Europe, I believe (from previous entries), but it is interesting how the first stanza could be that area of any city-they all have them, don't they? You painted it wellI just re-read, I'm not sure anymore if I got it or not-no fault of the poet, just can't see the picture completely, I think I'm tired.
For me this was an experience in feeling your agonyIf that was what you were aiming for, it's a bull's-eyeIf not, I'll go back to it after a whileStanza 2, penultimate line: You left out the apostrophe in child's.
I like itIt's very creative and well thought outShows true expressionGood job.
You do need a title to help set it up moreSome great imagesThe dockyards was well said especially juxtaposed with the ladies and setting up a flashback sequenceShe apparently left, either on her own or through deathThe death clues to me were child's hand, fearful and the line we'd freeze.etcYou also made reference to it in the opening stanza with the comment that romance is deadVery nice effortI enjoyed reading it.
A better way to frame this problem is to find a material which best insulates against heat infiltration when the object to be protected is cold and the environment is warm/hot[This is the conceptual opposite of finding the material which best insulates against heat loss when the object to be protected is hot and the environment is cold.] Selecting the best material amounts to looking at the R-value associated with various building materials, then stacking those materials in such a way that the resulting box has the basic performance characteristics needed(e.gdon't put ice cream directly onto fiberglass insulation.)Materials with a high R-value are very good insulators of heatMaterials with a low R-value are very poor insulators of heatStyrofoam would be a good insulator of heat - a box made of Styrofoam would work wellAn aerogel between an inner box made of plexiglass and an outer box made of plexiglass would also perform very well - it'd be super expensive, but it'd perform wellFiberglass insulation between an inner box made of drywall and an outer box made of wood would work tooNot sure I'd want to eat ice cream that's been sitting on a piece of drywall thoughA metal box exposed to a nearby heat source would be absolutely terribleNothng says you can't use a plexiglass box to hold the ice cream, wrap the box with fiberglass insulation, then build a styrofoam box around it(stack materials of different R-values to improve performance.) Just more food for thoughtHTH
