How does heat affect the amount of space matter fills?
Density (:
How do you find mass when given volume temperature and heat capacity?
This question requires density to answer. Density is a ratio of mass to volume, and is dependent on temperature. Materials do have variable density based on temperature. The equation for density is mass/volume.
How density is impacted by the temperature of the heat energy of the material?
An increase in temperature causes thermal expansion which increases the volume. This cause a decrease in density. Except in the case of water between 0 and 4 degrees C, where increased temperature results in a contraction and so increased density.
How many minutes does it take for water to get 80 degrees F?
It depends entirely on what the initial temperature and volume of the water is and how much heat is applied.
Applications of differential equation in agriculture?
Heat and mass transfer in greenhouse, Heat Flux in a Grain Bin, Suspension systems in tractors, Fluid Flow in a Pipe, Concentration in a Chemical Reactor, Falling Water Table, etc. Answered by Ramin Shamshiri, U. of Florida at Gainesville.
Does the density the mass or the volume decrease when heat is applied?
density
What increases as heat is applied to density?
volume
What happens to the density of aluminum if you heat it?
it will melt
What item decrease when heat is applied density mass or volume?
Volume increased so density decreased
Which item decreases as heat is applied?
Volume is increased so density is decreased.
What happens to the density when heat is added?
The density of air when it is heated decreases
What kind of heat flows through a boiling pot?
It would be convection. Convection occurs when heat is applied to a fluid.
If you heat up a fluid what happens to the volume?
The volume will increase as the fluid is warmed up.
What happens to sandstone when heat and pressure are applied?
It becomes metamorphic rock
Does the flow that transfer heat within a fluid is called convection current?
Not unless the fluid is flowing due to temperature/density differences.
What three ways can heat travel through substances?
Conduction - Process of heat transfer through a medium or material without any movement of the medium or material. Convection - transfer of heat from one place to another through the movement of fluids. A fluid with a given density rises within a fluid of greater density and sinks within in a fluid of smaller density. Radiation - transfer of heat, in the form of waves from one place to another without a medium.
Is it true that heat transfer by the movement of currents within a fluid is called density?
No, it is not true that heat transfer by the movement of currents within a fluid is called density; it is actually called convection. Density is something else entirely, it refers to weight per a given volume. Of course, density is relevant to convection. Heat causes fluids to expand and therefore to become less dense, and therefore to rise.
