What is a type of material that tries to prevent the flow of thermal energy?

In a steady-flow steam power plant system, two adiabatic high-pressure and low-pressure turbines ane used to generate power. superheated steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 8 mpa and 550°c. the steam expands in the high-pressure turbine to a saturated vapor at 3 mpa. in order to increase the powe generation of the power plant, another steam turbine working in a lower pressure ranges is deployed. the outlet vapor from the first turbine is heated up at a boiler to the temperature of 500 c at the constant pressure of first turbine's outlet (3 mpa). then, the vapor enters the second turbine and produces extra work. the exit conditions of the second turbine are 5o kpa and 90 percent quality. if the total power output of the power plant is 25 mw, determine a) the mass flow rate of the water (kg/s). b) heat transfer rate in the boiler (mw).

Curious carl calculated the density of a cube to be 4.50 g/cm3. what is the density of the cube in g/l?

Aplane takes off from an airport and flies to town a, located d1 = 215 km from the airport in the direction 20.0° north of east. the plane then flies to town b, located d2 = 230 km at 30.0° west of north from town a. use graphical methods to determine the distance and direction from town b to the airport. (enter the distance in km and the direction in degrees south of west.)
