The heat capacity of a .287g lead sinker used by fishermen?
0.0367 Heat capacity depends on the material that it's made out of. If the sinker is made out of cast iron, it'd be around 0.46 kJ/kg K. Google "specific heat of metals" for lists.
What plastics cannot absorb heat?
All material substances, including plastics of every type, can absorb heat to a greater or lesser degree (the measurement of heat absorbing ability is officially known as heat capacity). There are plastics that will melt if you heat them, but they still absorb heat, even as they melt.
What is the heat capacity of xylose?
The heat capacity of xylose is 281 Jmol-1K-1.
Should saucepans be made of material with a high or low specific heat capacity?
Low, so that they, and their contents, heat up quickly. You don't want to be waiting hours for your vegetable stir-fry to cook!
Why does the thermocouple have a little heat capacity?
why does the thermocouple have a very small heat capacity
Is the heat capacity of a body the same as its specific heat capacity?
The heat capacity depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/K.The specific heat capacity not depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/mol.K.
What does heat capacity depend on?
Mass and specific heat.
Effect of temperature on specific heat of material?
The effect of temperature on specific heat of material is referred to as specific heat capacity.
How much the temperature of a material is changed by heat energy depends?
It depends on the amount of material (its mass), on how much heat energy is added, and on the material's heat capacity.
Would it be better to have pots and pans made from material with a high specific heat capacity or low specific heat capacity?
Higher Heat
What material is a radiator made of?
Material with low specific heat capacity and with blackened surface are good for radiators.
How is specific heat of a substance different from the heat capacity?
Imagine 1 kg of water. This has a heat capacity. Now if you have 1000kg of water the heat capacity is obviously greater. The Specific Heat Capacity is a material constant. It specifies a set quantity. For water it is 4.184 kiloJoules per kilogram per Kelvin.
Should saucpan be made of material with high or low heat capacity?
high
The of a material is the amount of energy it takes to raise the temperature of you kg of the material 1 K?
specific heat capacity
Do heaters use materials that have a high or low heat capacity?
heaters use material what have low specific heat capacity as it means they give off heat slower which preserves the heat to last all day
What does it mean to say that a material has a high or low specific heat capacity?
The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of energy required to increase the temperature of a said substance 1o K. The capacity is measured in kilojoules divided by kilogram time degrees Kelvin (kJ/Kg k). So, if the specific heat capacity of a substance is high, it requires a very large amount of energy to increase the temperature, and if it has a low specific heat capacity, the required energy will be lower.
Does a substance that cools up quickly have high or low specific heat capacity?
It would have a LOW specific heat capacity because -- the subst heats up quickly which means you would use less heat capacity.
