Why does vapor pressure increase with an increase in temperature?
PV=nRT where P=pressure, V=volume, n=no. of moles, R=gas constant, T=temperature(K) since volume and the number of moles remain constant, they can be ignored and we can assume:- that P is proportional to T and thus if temperature is increased, pressure will also increase.
How does wind speed affect the rate of a cooling object?
The quicker the wind speed is the faster the object will cool that's because of the temperature change is greater when the speed of win is greater.
What does greater mass result in?
Greater mass results in greater gravitational force. This means that the larger an object is, it requires more effort for movement.
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 type of energy that is greater in the swimming pool with a temperature of 24c then in a puddle with a temperature of 24c?
Thermal
Which is greater an increasein temperature of one degree celsius or one degree Fahrenheit?
one degree centigrade is greater increase in temperature than one degreeFahrenheit.
What temperature where solubility of solid are greater?
The solubility of solids increase at higher temperatures.
In which can did the water show the greater temperature increase the white can black can in sun?
Black can
Why does it take a short time to boil a small beaker of water?
Because there's very little water in it that requires heating. Each molecule requires heat to raise its temperature, and to make the phase transition to water vapor (steam). The greater the mass of the water, the greater the total energy required to heat it.
What is golbal warning?
Global warming is an increase in the temperature that we are used to and a greater g change in our climate.
Why is evaporation greater over warm waters?
The movement of molecules increase when the temperature increase; some molecules at the water surface can escape as a gas.
What is the substances specific heat?
The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance to 1 degree greater than that of the initial temperature of the body!
What is substances specific heat?
The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance to 1 degree greater than that of the initial temperature of the body!
Why is the temperature greater in the upper part of stratosphere?
because the upper part of the stratosphere is closer to the sun, which means the temperature is higher or greater in the upper part.:);)
If the temperature of a gas were to increase would the volume increase?
no the presure would become greater unless the contianer became larger the volume would stay the same
How much heat is needed to increase the temperature of 1 gallon of water?
Any amount of energy you like greater than 0; the larger the amount of energy you give it, the larger the temperature increase will be. Perhaps you should specify by how much temperature you want the gallon of water to increase and you may get a more specific answer.
Why Lucknow has a greater range of temperature than thiruvananthapuram?
because it is near the cost
