How do you make thermometers sensitive?
You may increase the heat transfer rate to make it more sensitive to environment such as introducing air flow through thermometer in case of measuring air temperature. It can also design thermometer to be more sensitve with better heat sensitive material and thinner insulation wall. Introducing medium into contact surface (such as oil or water in thermowell) would speed up heat trasfer and make it more sensitive to temperature change.
Does it take more heat to heat water or to boil water?
It takes more heat to boil water than to simply heat water. Unless the water is already at its boiling point.
Which holds more heat salt water or fresh water?
Salt water holds more heat than fresh water
Why the heat capacity of water more than ice?
Water can hold more heat than ice before it changes states. For example, when you add heat to ice, it changes to water almost immediately. When you add heat to water it takes more to turn it into steam.
Does boiling water have more heat than a match flame?
Yes, the boiling water has more heat than the match flame.
Which dissipates heat more quickly land or water?
Land heats and cools faster than water.
Why does soil absorb more sunlight heat than and water?
it absorbs more heat from sunlight than water because soil is looser which lets more sunlight in
Why salt dissolves best in hot water?
Heat has more energy, so salt dissolve faster in hot water, because there is more heat and more energy.
Can water absorb more heat than land?
Water has a higher heat capacity than land, meaning it can absorb more heat for a given temperature change. However, land heats up and cools down more quickly than water due to its lower heat capacity, which can result in more extreme temperature fluctuations on land compared to water.
Does water hold more heat energy than pure or drinking alcohol?
Water has a higher specific heat capacity compared to pure or drinking alcohol. This means that water can hold more heat energy per unit mass. Therefore, water can absorb and retain more heat energy compared to alcohol.
Which can transfer more heat a cup of boiling water or 1 basin of tap water?
A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.
How does the amount of water put into a kettle affect the time it takes to boil?
The more water you put into the kettle, the longer it will typically take to boil. This is because more water requires more energy to heat up to boiling temperature. Conversely, less water will heat up faster because there is less volume to heat.
