Does sand have a high or low specific heat capacity?
sand have low specific heat capacity.
Heat transferred from sand to towel to body is transferred by what?
Heat is transferred from sand to towel to body by conduction because of direct contact.
The fact that desert sand is very hot in the day and very cold at night is evidence that sand has a low specific heat capacity or high specific heat capacity?
It has a very low specific heat because it absorbs and releases heat energy very readily.
Does sand or water absorb more heat?
water
Why does the sand at the beach heat up and cool down faster than the water?
1) Sand has less specific heat, 2) It doesn't mix so easily, so the heat basically stays at the surface.
What holds heat longer soil or sand?
Sand because molecules stay heated within.
What holds heat longer water or sand?
i think sand but you should testit first ot find out
What hold heat longer the sand or water?
sand
Why does water have a greater specific heat over then sand?
water has a greater specific heat than sand becasue it takes longer to heat up than sand does
Witch holds the most heat soil sand clay dirt and heats up the fatest and why?
Sand
Do water hold heat longer than sand?
no
What holds more heat grass mulch sand or rocks?
I would say rocks.
Does sand or water capture more heat for a longer time?
Water captures more heat for a longer period of time because the sand particles are too far apart and won't keep in as much heat as the water can. I hope I helped.
Is sieving sand from stones reversible?
is sieving sand from stones reversible?
Will sand or water heat quicker?
sand will because the molecules of sand are closer together, which makes heat get to the whole object faster, unlike water in which the molecules are spread apart, so it will take longer for all of the heat to get the whole liquid. (i did an experemint in my class, which proves my answer.)
Will sand hold heat?
Sand is not as good a conductor as something more solid like glass because it is composed of tiny granules that are separated by air. If you were to sit a hot pot in a hole made into some sand, the sand would help the pot to maintain its heat for longer than if the pot were sitting on top of the ground.
How do you separate tiny stones sand and sugar?
you pick out the stones, secondly you have to use filtering to pick out the sand and just leave the sugar.
