Why does water heat up quickly if the heat is applied from the bottom?
Heat goes up
Which has the greater specific heat capacity- an object that cools quickly or an object of the same mass that cools more slowly?
The object that cools more slowly would have the greater specific heat, because the amount of heat that is needed to raise the temperature of it one degree is less than the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of the first object one degree. i.e. the object that cools quickly does so because it doesn't need a lot of heat to increase the temperature of it by one degree and the one that cools more slowly does so because it needs more heat to increase the temperature of it by one degree.
What are the properties of radiator liquid and what is the liquids in radiatores?
Liquids in radiators are usually water & oil. The properties of these are that they heat up fairly quickly and store energy for a long time, releasing heat energy slowly. This makes the radiator effective in what it is designed to do.

What type of surface will heat up most quickly?
A metal
Why is annual range of temperature more in the interior of landmasses?
Compared to the sea land masses heat up quickly and loose their heat quickly. So you get a wide temperature range. The sea heats up slowly and looses heat slowly so maritime climates have less temperature extremes.

Does a substance that cools up quickly have high or low specific heat capacity?
It would have a LOW specific heat capacity because -- the subst heats up quickly which means you would use less heat capacity.
Why does Ice packed in sawdust not melt quickly?
the sawdust acts as insulation isolating the ice from warm air
Why does loft insulation help prevent heat loss from your homes?
It Stops Convection - heat rises you stop it going up with the loft insulation and therefore the heat stays in for longer

How do you make liquid naphthalene?
slowly heat it up?
Why do deserts have a large temperature change everyday?
Deserts generally lack cloud cover and higher humidity that act as insulation and buffer the temperature changes during the day. Therefore, deserts heat up quickly during the day and cool down quickly at night.

How does insulation save energy?
Insulation helps to keep heat inside a house, meaning as less heats escapes there is no need to heat the house up, normally by Central Heating, therefore saving energy.
How does a mircowave oven get your food hot?
The particular micro-waves that are use in microwave ovens are of the same energy as the chemical bonds between hydrogen and oxygen in water. These chemical bonds absorb the energy of the microwave shone upon them and consequently heat-up the water. This heat is transferred to the rest of the food through diffusion. An interesting series of experiments you could try in your kitchen would be to try out food with different degrees of water in them and see how quickly they heat up. Water should heat up quickly. Flour should heat up only slowly Salt shouldn't heat up at all.
Why do you need car engine to heat heat up quickly?
it can cause to fire and
