When substances are heated, they gain heat energy. The atoms and molecules of substances gain kinetic energy and their speed increases. The average kinetic energy of these particles is proportional to ...

An electric heater supplies 13500 joules of heat energy to a metal block of mass \(0.5kg\). The temperature of the block rises from \(20^{\circ}C\) to \(80^{\circ}C\) during the heating process.

As I understand it, the whole point of cooking a turkey is to take it at some temperature and then increase it to a higher temperature. Sure, maybe there's something about family togetherness in there ...

The examples that follow show various application possibilities of the sapphire method for the determination of C p at high temperatures. The measurements were done with the use of a Mettler Toledo ...

The use of nanocomposites, which use small-scale particle fillers to enhance the characteristics of thermoplastics and thermosets, has attracted a lot of attention in recent years. For instance, ...

Quite some years ago I examined how, if we know the specific heat capacity of a particular thing, we can make an estimate of the time constant of that particular thing undergoing a thermal excursion ...
