Most of us know that if you put two objects together that have different temperatures, they eventually come to the same temperature. The hot one gets cooler and the cold one gets warmer. We call that thermal equilibrium. It might take a longer or shorter time, depending on the material between them.
Insulators, like diver's wetsuits or foam cups, are designed to stop or slow the flow of heat. How do they work? (By the way, a "wetsuit" user gets wet, and it doesn't work by keepting the cold water out.) In this activity you will investigate heat and temperature changes at the atomic level to find the answer.
What is happening at the atomic level? Let's explore.
