When heating two substance with same heat the temperature raises on two substance are different why?

Each substance has a different heat capacity, which means they need different amounts of energy to change temperature by the same amount (for a given mass). If the same amount of energy is input, then the temperature difference will also be different.

What is the difference a series circuit and a parallel?

For parallel circuit , each & every component shares 2 common connections . But for series circuit , each of them share 1 common connection .In electrical , each component has their own amount of current flowing through ( depending on the resistance of each ) and sharing the same voltage drop for parallel circuit . In case of series circuit , each component shares the same amount of current with each other & the voltage drop across each of them is different ( depending on their resistance ) .

It depends on the resistance (or impedance) of that branch alone.


When energy enters a substance what is it called?

The electrons of different atoms start moving due to the change in kinetic energy. This produces a rise in the temperature of the substance. Each substance will have different reactions to the temperature changes{THIS WAS NOT MY ANSWER}
