Why does it take a long time to heat a room with high ceiling?
Because in convection, warm air rises up to the roof and cold air sinks down so the area where people is, is always colder than the area near the roof where nobody is.
Why are radiators placed near the floor and not the ceiling?
They are placed on the floor because heat rises. If the heater was up high, the ceiling would be nice and warm, while the walls and floor would be cold.They are placed on the floor because heat rises.

Is water a good conductor for heat?
Water has a high specific heat capacity (relative to metals and other conductors), making it a poor conductor of heat (takes too much energy to change the temperature).
Does a high specific heat allow water to heat slowly cool slowly or to do both?
I think the answer is cool slowly because if you left something that was hot out, it would cool.
Is ice a poor conductor of heat?
Yes. Ice conducts heat poorly, snow even more so - snow is a great insulator. one of the best! Ice has a high specific heat too (it takes a lot of energy to raise the temperature of ice).

How does heat move from a fire up to a fire sprinkler?
Since hot air is lighter than cool air, heat, especially the high heat from a fire, moves up to the fire sprinkler heads on the ceiling the ceiling rapidly. When the heat gets too great, heat sensitive bulbs contained in the sprinkler heads burst and release pressurized water from behind the bulbs.
How high is something when it takes one second to hear your echo?
If the echo is off of a wall or a cliff, then it's about 170 meters (186 yards) away from you, but the echo can't tell you how high the wall or cliff is. Conversely, if the echo is off of the ceiling, then you are in a truly huge cavern. It would be highly unlikely that there would be a ceiling 170 meters high, but it is possible. More unlikely still would be a building with a ceiling that high.

What is high bay lighting?
As the name suggests, high ceiling lights are used to illuminate high ceiling spaces. This usually means that the ceiling ranges from 20 feet to about 45 feet. Relatively speaking, low ceiling lights are used for ceilings of 20 feet and below. Because there is more space to fill in the high ceiling position, the high ceiling is by definition a powerful light source that can illuminate large areas.
