Q

if you’re conducting something, do you want to use a metal with a low specific heat or high specific heat?

A

LOW SH
because it takes less energy to heat up and will get hotter faster

17
Q

if you’re trying to cool an object down, (pull as much energy out of it as you can) should you use an object with high specific heat or low SH to draw the energy away?

A

HIGH SPECIFIC HEAT
because it can pull out and retain the most thermal energy and will TAKE a lot of energy to reach to equilibrium, cooling the other object down a lot

18
Q

if you’re heating up an object and dropping it into water with the goal to raise the temp of the water, should you drop in an object with high SH or low SH?

A

HIGH SPECIFIC HEAT
because it retains the most energy, so when heated it would release the most thermal energy

19
Q

explain specific heat

A

the amount of energy that it takes to raise or lower the temperature of an object. it gives away how fast the object will heat/cool and how it retains heat

20
Q

define heat

A

thermal energy that is capable of moving

21
Q

what is a vaccum

A

a place where no atoms/molecules are present, so no heat can transfer!

22
Q

when does a sea breeze happen?

A

WHEN THE SUN IS UP
hot air over sand rises, cooler air from the sea rushes in

23
Q

when does a land breeze happen?

A

WHEN SUN HAS SET
sand cools faster, air gets colder, rushes out to sea to fill in space from the rising warmer ocean air

24
Q

what is matter that contains a combination of different elements and compounds

A

mixture!

25
Q

what is the force between atoms and molecules that resists particle motion

A

intermolecular forces

26
Q

blood is a

A

homogeneous mixture

27
Q

salt water is a

A

homogeneous mixture

28
Q

S + NaCl + H20 is a

A

heterogeneous mixture
(sulfur plus salt plus water)

29
Q

the amount of heat needed to raise the temp of 1g of water by 1 C

A

calorie

30
Q

the amount of energy required to increase one pound of water by 1 degree F

A

BTU
