What does not affect the amount of heat a body can store?
altitude
Why is heat a form energy?
That means that other forms of energy can be converted to heat, and - with some limitations - heat can be converted to other forms of energy. A certain amount of movement energy (for example) always converts to a certain amount of heat. So, it certainly looks as if there is "something" that the different things (for example, movement and heat) have in common. This "something" is now called "energy".
Which main body of energy consumption uses the greatest amount of energy?
heat
What method is used to measure the amount of heat given off by the body?
Direct calorimetry
Name one quantity that must be know in order to determine the amount of heat associated with a body?
There are three: Energy absorbed by a body is directly proportional to the rise in temperature of a body Heat energy absorbed by a body is directly proportional to the mass of the body Heat energy absorbed by a body depends upon its nature and is commonly called specific heat capacity.
Which planet have so much heat?
All planets have a certain amount of heat.
Why do not you feel the heat of cool matters like ice?
Although ice possesses certain amount of heat energy, it is less than that possessed by a person. When a person touches ice, the heat energy from his/her body is transferred to the ice to reach equilibrium (equal amount of heat in the person's body and in the ice). Since heat is not being received that is why it is not felt either. Since heat energy is being given away, a person feels cold.
What is an example of body?
body temperature is basically measuring the amount of heat energy in our body.
When your body breaks down sugar completely how much heat is released compared to burning the same amount of sugar in a flame?
The body releases the same amount of heat.
In terms of chemical reaction explain why all organisms need a certain amount of heat for inside or outside the body?
Heat is required for many vital chemical processes. Too cold and nothing happens, too hot and the enzymes in the body become denatured (useless)
What does not affect the amount of heat a body can store?
altitude
What is happening on a molecular level during devitrification of glass?
basically the glass is becoming crystalline after a certain amount of heat has been applied for a certain amount of time.
How does heat is differ from temperature?
heat differs because temperature is the amount of coldness and hotness it is in a certain area. and heat is the substance that temperature measures
What is specific heat a measure of?
The amount of energy it takes to change the temperature of a substance by a certain amount. How much energy it takes to heat a substance ~APEX
What are the properties of a geyser?
it is big and implodes with a certain amount of heat coming from volcanic activity.
What is spesipic heat?
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a body through 1oC.
