Water has a high heat capacity, which can be described as "thermal inertia". That means that water can absorb a large amount of heat energy.
Air (Explanation): water has a high specific heat capacity, but it can boil. stone (😂) also is a good thermal insulator, but it can get really hot. Metal is a very good thermal conductor, so it is definitely not that. Therefore, air is the best (its also really hard to boil).
"More bang for your bucks"
ADVANTAGES 1. releases large amounts of energy from small amounts of mass 2. very efficient 3. fuel lasts a long time 4. convert nuclear energy into thermal energy DISADVANTAGES 1. they are very expensive 2. they are hard to keep up 3. the waste is hard to get rid of
the worst conductors of heat are wood, plastic, rubber, and cloth.
Styrofoam is a very porous material; air from the closed pores has a bad thermal conductivity.
Wash with water; it is very simple and efficient.
Feathers are efficient structures for trapping air. Motionless air is a very good thermal insulator.
It was very efficient at carrying water from a river or lake to a city to provide a clean water supply.
The thermal conductivity of distilled water is relatively low compared to other liquids. This means that distilled water is not a very effective conductor of heat, which is why it is often used as a coolant in various applications.
Some advantages of using a floor buffer over mopping are that you will get a very good clean floor. It takes a little less effort to do, and you arnt just pushing dirty water around
The thermal conductivity of water is about 0.6 W/mK. This means that water is not a very good conductor of heat compared to other materials. In various systems, the low thermal conductivity of water can affect the transfer of heat by slowing down the rate at which heat is transferred through water. This can impact the efficiency of heat transfer processes in systems such as cooling systems, heating systems, and thermal insulation.
Thermal protection - water at depth can be very cold.
Yes, if you were in the water with no thermal protection, you would not last very long at all.
The hybrid car has proven to be very efficient. My brother is very efficient on his job.
Yes, saline water conducts electricitywhile distilled water is almost an insulator, salt water is a very efficient electrical conductor.
specific heat is the amount of thermal energy needed to raise the temperature of an object. for example, the water on the beach and the sand on the shore are absorbing the same amount of thermal energy from the sun but the water (which has high specific heat) is cold, and the sand (with low specific heat) is very hot.
He is not a very efficient worker.
