The quantities of heat are typically measured in Joules (J) or calories. Heat transfer can be quantified as the amount of energy transferred between two systems due to a temperature difference. It is important in understanding how heat flows in various processes and systems.

How does the sun conserve heat?

It doesn't. It generates and radiates vast quantities of heat, light and other electromagnetic radiation. It is stable, as it has plenty of hydrogen fuel left, and kept stable by its own gravity.

What are base quantities and derived quantities?

Base quantities are fundamental physical quantities that cannot be defined in terms of other physical quantities. They are used as building blocks in expressing other physical quantities. Derived quantities, on the other hand, are physical quantities that are derived from combinations of base quantities through multiplication and division with or without other derived quantities.


Is heat capacity scalar or vector quantity?

Heat capacity is a scalar quantity. It measures the amount of heat required to change the temperature of a substance by a given amount, without considering direction. Unlike vector quantities, which have both magnitude and direction, heat capacity only has magnitude, making it a scalar.


What are based quantities?

quantities which are not mademade from major quantities


What biome is characterized by its ability to absorb and hold large quantities of solar heat?

The desert biome is characterized by its ability to absorb and hold large quantities of solar heat due to its dry conditions, lack of vegetation, and high albedo surfaces like sand and rock. This leads to extreme temperature fluctuations between day and night in deserts.
