Which if starting at the same temperature will cool slower on a hot day potato watermelon bread or dried beans?
The watermelon will cool the slowest for two reasons:
- it has the greater volume relative to the surface area (surface area increase with the square of dimensions while volume increases with the cube of dimension) so there is less surface area per unit mass and heat transfer is proportional to surface area
- since it contains more water than the others and water has a high heat capacity, it will take more energy to cool the same mass of watermelon than it would to cool the others

Why do you think temperature is the measure of the average energry of motion of all the particles within a substance?
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles within a substance because as particles move faster or slower, their kinetic energy changes. A higher temperature indicates that particles are moving faster on average, while a lower temperature means they are moving slower on average. This relationship allows temperature to be a useful indicator of the energy of motion within a substance.
Does temperature measure how fast the particles of a substance are moving around?
Yes, temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance. When temperature increases, the particles move faster, and when it decreases, they move slower.
Why does water evaporate slower?
Water evaporates slower when the air is humid because the moisture content in the air is already high, making it more difficult for the water molecules to escape into the atmosphere. Additionally, if the water temperature is cooler, the rate of evaporation will also be slower compared to warmer temperatures.
How is temperature related to the kinetic energy of particles?
Temperature is directly related to the kinetic energy of particles. As temperature increases, the particles move faster and have more kinetic energy. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the particles move slower and have less kinetic energy.
How does the temperature of a substance affect its kinetic energy?
The temperature of a substance directly affects its kinetic energy. As the temperature increases, the particles in the substance move faster and have more kinetic energy. Conversely, when the temperature decreases, the particles move slower and have less kinetic energy.
Can heat make a crystal grow slower or faster?
It depends on the type of element/compound(s) you are working with, the composition of the system and the starting temperature and pressure etc etc etc. The simple answer is both.
Do particles in a liquid move faster or slower when the temperature increases?
faster
What do you think happens to a fish's behavior in cold climate during the winter?
The colder the temperature, the colder the water temperature. The colder the temperature, the slower the fish's metabolism. The slower the fish's metabolism, the more sluggish and slow the fish is. The fish will have less energy and some fish even hibernate.
How does temperature affect decomposition of flesh?
hot decomposes fast and cold decomposes slower
When salt is added to boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius will the water boil faster or slower?
Adding salt to boiling water will actually make the water boil slower. Salt increases the boiling point of water by raising its boiling point temperature. As a result, it will take longer for the water to reach the new, higher boiling point temperature and thus boil.
Why do potatoes last longer in the refrigerator?
Because there kept fresher in the refrigerator The enzymes in the microbes that eventually cause fungal growth within the potato are below the optimum temperature neded to work. This means when compared to room tepmerature (which is closer to their optimum temp) they work slower and therefore reproducing the 'bad stuff' in the potato that causes it to go rotten slower.
Can you estimate temperature using cricket chirps sometimes?
yes the slower the hotter the faster the colder
Which melts the regular ice slower?
This depends on the amount of salt, the ambiental temperature, the structure of ice.
Do the temperature affect the rate of evaporation?
Yes the hotter the weather the faster the evaporation, the colder the slower
Does temperature effect how a candle burns?
Yes. When a candle is in cold temperatures, it tends to melt much slower than a candle burning in room temperature.
How does temperature effect frog heart rate?
the cooler the frog the slower the heart rate, the warmer the faster
Will water evaporate faster or slower in a warm spot or cold spot?
Evaporation is faster at high temperature.
