Specific heat refers to the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. The high specific heat of water has a buffering effect on nature, thus the aquatic ecosystems are well regulated.
Material with low specific heat capacity and with blackened surface are good for radiators.
The objects that absorb heat most readily are those with more of the following qualities:the object is largethe object has a large surface areathe object is blackthe object has a matte finish (it is not shiny)the object is made from a conductor such as metalthe object is much colder than its surroundingsthe object has a high specific heat capacity
In cold countries, agricultural fields are watered during evenings. When atmosphere cools, this water also gets cooled. Then more heat is liberated. Thus this heat protects the seeds and plants from getting freezed. Water is used in the radiators of vehicles. Even though water receives a lot of heat from the engine, because of it's high specific heat capacity the water doesn't get heated fast.
specific heat capacity of a substance is defined as the QUANITY OF HEAT REQUIRED to raise the temperature of 1 Kg of the substance through 1K ( kelvin ) .however it obtained the unit of J/kg/kThe specific heat capacity is the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of material by 1 degree Celsius._____________________Apex: The energy needed to change the temperature of a substance The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
Higher Heat
high
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!
High Specific Heat.
The ideal refrigerant has good thermodynamic properties, is noncorrosive, and safe. The desired thermodynamic properties are a boiling point somewhat below the target temperature, a high heat of vaporization, a moderate density in liquid form, a relatively high density in gaseous form, and a high critical temperature. Since boiling point and gas density are affected by pressure, refrigerants may be made more suitable for a particular application by choice of operating pressure. Corrosion properties are a matter of materials compatibility with the components used for the compressor, piping, evaporator, and condenser. Safety considerations include toxicity and flammability.
Depends on the specific pliers. Good ones will typically be made out of a high carbon grade steel and heat forged to make it stronger than typical metals that one would want to cut.
The material that burner covers should be made out of is flame resistant material that cannot catch fire easily. Since they are under high heat pressure they must withstand the pressure.
Heat is normally transferred to specific areas by means of a 'heat sink' which is usually made of a material with low resistance and high transfer of heat. An example of this can be seen in most computers, the heat sink collects the heat from the processor, and there is (usually) a fan which is near or on the heatsink to remove it from the heat sink, effectively lowering the temperature of the processor.
yes
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.
Heat is often referred to as thermal energy. A body, item, or system is said to have more heat when its temperature is high. Temperature refers simply to how fast an items molecules are moving. So as an object increases in temperature, its amount of heat or thermal energy, goes up. Thus, heat is not a specific thing inandof itself, but more of a property.
