Does heat travel from warm to cool or cool to warm?
Heat always flows from a warm object to a cooler object in order to reach thermal equilibrium. This means that heat will move from a higher temperature to a lower temperature until both reach the same temperature.
How many btus does it take to turn water into steam?
It takes approximately 970 BTUs to convert one pound of water at 212°F (100°C) to steam at the same temperature.
What direction of heat flow when a warm object and a cool object touch?
The heat will transfer to the cooler object.
Why can the same material keep cool things cool and hot things hot?
Certain materials possess good thermal conductivity, which allows them to transfer heat effectively. When used for cooling, these materials can absorb heat from a hot object and dissipate it, keeping the object cool. Conversely, the same material can insulate and retain the heat of a hot object when used for insulation, preventing it from escaping and thus keeping the object hot.
What happens when two bodies having same temperature come in a contact?
When two bodies at the same temperature come into contact, there will be no transfer of heat between them, as there is no temperature difference to drive the heat transfer. The bodies will remain at the same temperature before and after contact.
How long are German sheperds in heat?
They are the same length as when they are cool.

How many btu's of heat are produced by a T8 fluorescent lamp?
Almost 90 % of electrical energy provided to an incandescent light bulb goes as heat and rest as light. A 100 Watt bulb puts out 100 Joules of heat per second. So - for one minute it would put out 6000 Joules (100 Watts X 60 seconds). 1 BTU (British Thermal Unit) of heat = 1055.056 Joules. So a 100 watt bulb, burning for one minute would put out 5.68 BTUs of heat. ( 6000 Joules / 1055.056 Joules) = 5.68 BTUs. Same bulb burning for one hour would generate 341 BTUs of heat.
How many btus does it take to turn water into steam?
It takes approximately 970 BTUs to convert one pound of water at 212°F (100°C) to steam at the same temperature.
Why does skin get tight after swimming?
Probably because heat expands and cool contracts! That's the same term!
What direction of heat flow when a warm object and a cool object touch?
The heat will transfer to the cooler object.
What would cause a home air conditioner and heater to run at the same time when turning on the heater?
IF THIS IS NOT A HEAT PUMP SYSTEM... COULD BE; thermostat connecting(calling for) heat and cool together. connnection problem in wires- or bad thermostat. find wiring diagram for t-stat, read up on checking voltage in thermostat in the heat-or cool mode. they are separate. does t-stat have separate 'heat-cool' mode. in other words- do you have to switch to heat mode-or cool mode. if it is a heat pump--ask again with that stated in question.

Why are you cool under a tree?
A tin roof transmits the heat and a shed keeps the heat in. A tree is made of an insulating material, it's outside so the heat isn't trapped in the same way and the tree is transpiring, releasing water all the time from its leaves, which helps keep the air cool.
Why does a central furnace kick on too much?
There is the possibility it is oversized causing it to heat the house, shut off and restart otherwise known as short cycling. Ideally the furnace would be sized to heat the house at the same rate the house loses heat on a design day.
How many BTUs does your TWE018C140A0 TRANE furnace have?
The BTU input and output ratings are on the same tag as the model #.
Why have to spread out the carrot cake to cool it?
Things like cakes cool quicker if the air can move freely around them. If they are in an enclosed space, the same air will stay near them, and heat up, whereas if air is moving, cool air will constantly be arrivingand be able to carry more heat away.
