Water has a very high specific heat capacity, which means you need to put a lot of energy into a given quantity of it to raise the temperature a given amount. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.187 kJ/kgK, which means you need to put in 4 kJ of energy to raise the temperature of one kg of water by 1 K (or 1C) Compare this to the specific heat capacity of air which is 1.0 kJ/kgK, or 25% of that of water. Therefore, you need to put in four times as much energy to heat up a given mass of water as compared to a given mass of air. One kilogram of air has a volume of about 29 cubic feet at 1 atmosphere, and a kilogram of water is a liter. It takes 4 times as much thermal energy to raise the temperature of that liter of water by a degree as it does to raise that 29 ft3 of air that same one degree. To do an additional comparison, you could picture a room that is 11' x 11' x 11' in volume. Elevating the temperature of the air in that room one degree will lift the temperature of that liter of water by the same one degree.
A birthing pool is a specially designed pool, filled with warm water, in which water births take place.
Well, large bodies of water take longer to heat or cool than land does, so a swimming pool will be a bit cooler... ... I think so....
you've got to be kidding

To warm up a cold pool, you can consider using a pool heater to increase the water temperature efficiently. Another option is to use a pool cover to trap and retain heat from the sun, raising the water temperature gradually over time. Additionally, you can try solar rings or panels to harness solar energy and heat the pool water naturally.

Yes they do. They always need to have access to a small pool of water in their living environment. It's also good to have them soak daily in warm water as deep as about half the height of their shell. The warm water will help promote bowel movements.
The time it takes for a pool with a heater to warm up after first filling it depends on factors such as the size of the pool, the starting temperature of the water, the power of the heater, and the ambient temperature. In general, it can take anywhere from 24 to 72 hours for a pool with a heater to reach the desired temperature.
The specific heat of water determines how much energy is needed to heat water.
