What is meant by specific heat capacity?
It is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of a given unit by a given amount. In physics, the standard unit of measurement is the Joule per Kelvin.
Measurement of how much mass is contained in a given volume is called?
A measurement of how much mass is contained in a given volume is called?
What is the measurement of how much mass is contained in a given volume?
Density
Is weight a measurement of how much mass is in a given volume?
No weight is a measurement of how much force something experiences due to gravity.
The measurement of how much mass is contained in a given volume is called?
Density
What is the difference between mass and denstity?
They are related, sort of. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter - density is a measurement of the amount of matter in a given amount of space.
Amount of change of one measurement in a given amount of time?
rate
Does psia equal psi?
Maybe and maybe not. PSIA makes it explicit that the measurement given is an "absolute" value; that is, its zero point is a complete vacuum. PSI may be absolute, or it may be given relative to ambient atmospheric pressure.
The amount of water that actually exists in the air at a given time?
Absolute humidity refers to the amount of water vapor that exists in a given volume of air at a given time. Relative humidity is absolute humidity relative to the maximum humidity for the current temperature.
What is the difference between absolute and specific humidity?
Relative humidity is a ratio of the actual water vapor content of the air to the amount of water vapor needed to reach saturation. Absolute humidity is the mass of water vapor contained in a given volume of air.
What is meant by specific heat capacity?
It is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of a given unit by a given amount. In physics, the standard unit of measurement is the Joule per Kelvin.
What is discharge river a measurement of?
river discharge is when the amount of water is measured and the amount that is in the river channel, and at a given point (width,length,depth)
What is a measurement of how much solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent under a certain condition called?
solubility
What do you mean by sulubility?
well, solubility is a measurement that describes how much solute dissolves in a given amount of solvent.
When using a protractor a student measure the sum of the interior angles in a triangle and obtain 176 degrees what is the percent error of this measurement?
3 The student can measure the given angles to within 2 degrees of the actual measurement and identify each angle, with 95% accuracy 2 The student is able to measure the given angles to within 10 degrees, and is able to identify the angles with 95% accuracy 1 Student is unable to correctly measure the given angles and/or identify the angles correctly
What is the name of the amount of light a star gives off?
The amount of light a star gives off is the intensity or luminosity. Absolute Magnitude measures the amount of light given off.
What term is used to describe the actual amount of light given off by a star at a standard distance?
the absolute magnitude
