If you apply the same amount of heat to 5 grams of water and 5 grams of another substance, and the temperature of the other substance increases more than that of the water, you can conclude that the other substance has a lower specific heat capacity than water. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance, so a lower value means that it requires less energy to achieve the same temperature increase.

You apply the same amount of heat to five grams of substance a and five grams of substance b the temperature of both substances increase by the same amount what can you conclude?

You can conclude that both substances have the same specific heat capacity. This means that they require the same amount of energy to change their temperature by a certain amount.


Using the kinetic theory explain why the pressure of a gas increases when the temperature increases?

When the temperature of a gas increases, the Kinetic Energy of the particles increases. This means that they move faster and apply a greater force when they collide with the walls of the container. As pressure is the force per unit area on the container, the pressure increases. This is Gay-Lussac's "Pressure Temperature" Law: "P = kT".


How to apply Charles' Law to determine the relationship between the volume and temperature of a gas?

To apply Charles' Law to determine the relationship between the volume and temperature of a gas, you need to keep the pressure constant. Charles' Law states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin, when pressure is held constant. This means that as the temperature of a gas increases, its volume also increases proportionally, and vice versa.


Does ohm's law also apply to the filament lamp?

No. For Ohm's Law to apply, the ratio of voltage to current must remain constant for variations in voltage. This simply doesn't happen with a tungsten filament. In fact, MOST materials don't obey Ohm's Law.


Gas molecule apply more pressure against their container when what changes?

Gas molecules apply more pressure against their container when the temperature of the gas increases or when the volume of the container decreases. This is due to an increase in the average kinetic energy and frequency of collisions of the gas molecules with the container walls.


Which statements are true about a block of ice at -10 degrees Celsius as you continue to apply heat?

Thre temperature of the block of ice increases until you reach 0 degrees C when the block of ice begins to melt.

Does 4 stroke dirt bike have power band?

Most dirt bikes use carburettors (until about this year), they regulate how much fuel and air the engine gets. The more of this it gets the more power it makes. When you apply the throttle, it increases the amount of fuel and air allowed into the engine. A power band is the interaction between the amount of throttle you apply and the amount of power the engine makes, different bikes make very different powerbands.

If you have been out of law school many years can you still sit for the bar?

You can still apply for admission to the Bar regardless of the number of years that you have been out of law school. However, the cost to apply increases as the number of years since you earned your law degree increases.


How can I make a simple calorimeter?

To make a simple calorimeter, you will need a container to hold water, a thermometer to measure temperature changes, and a heat source to generate heat. Place the container with water on the heat source and measure the initial temperature. Apply heat to the water and record the temperature change. By measuring the amount of heat applied and the temperature change, you can calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
