Abstract Different substances react in various ways when exposed to heat. The amount of energy necessary to heat a certain amount of water by one degree is different than that of another liquid or substance. The technical term used to determine this characteristic is called heat capacity or specific heat capacity. The purpose of this experiment is to find the heat capacity of water‚ orange juice‚ and olive oil. A couple of very specific equipment is needed in order to complete this experiment

In The Heat Of The Night In the novel‚ "In the Heat of the Night"‚ a murder is investigated by a negro detective‚ Virgil Tibs‚ and a team of white officers. "In the Heat of the Night" is a detective novel written by John Ball to show racial attitudes that happened in a small town in the southern part of the United States. Discrimination not only affects the main character Virgil Tibs‚ but also affects everyone involved in the story. Lastly‚ discrimination‚ is a negative and degrading action

Heat Transfer Through Jacket Objective The objective of this example is to analyze heat transfer in a pilot plant using simulation models. The first step is to use pilot plant data to calculate heat transfer parameters. The second part involves using simulation models to examine the trade-off between jacket parameters and heating times. Process Description Assumptions: The stirred tank is assumed to be perfectly mixed. The contributions of agitator work‚ heat loss to environment

demonstrate the working principles of industrial heat exchangers ii. To investigate the efficiency of the heat exchanger in parallel and counter flow arrangements 1.0 INTRODUCTION A heat exchanger is equipment in which heat exchange takes place between 2 fluids that enter and exit at different temperatures. The main function of heat exchanger is to either remove heat from a hot fluid or to add heat to the cold fluid. The direction of fluid motion inside the heat exchanger can normally categorised as

Conclusions The purpose of this experiment was to find the relationship between a substance’s specific heat and its atomic weight. In the lab‚ the substances with the higher atomic weights had less specific heat. From this‚ we can conclude that specific heat and atomic weight have an inverse relationship‚ meaning as one decreases the other increases. The reason for this is because if atoms are small‚ or light‚ they have the ability to pack tightly together‚ leaving almost no space between them

Experiment 1 The Heat Capacity Ratio of Gases Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to calculate the heat capacity ratio of gases‚ Helium‚ Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide‚ and compare with their theoretical values. Introduction Thermodynamics is the study of heat as it relates to energy and work. There are various properties which all relate to each other when determining the characteristic of a certain substance. One of such properties is heat capacity‚ which is the amount of heat energy required

Identity theft is a major problem in the United States and is growing ever year. In 2003‚ identity theft cost business and consumers close to $53 billion and identities stolen from around 10 million Americans (Dinev 77). Identity theft is where someone can pretend to be someone else‚ and to make financial charges under the victim’s name‚ leaving all the troubles of fixing the victim’s financial troubles to the victim while the theft continues to steal until they either are caught or move on to another

The Process of Paradoxical Heat Sensation Vy Tran West Covina High School Abstract The following research study examined the effects of using a warm stimulus cold stimulus instead of a hot stimulus and a cold stimulus to perform a sensation known as paradoxical heat. In the process of paradoxical heat sensation‚ a hot and cold stimulus is synchronically stimulated giving off a feeling we believe is very hot but is actually two stimuli activating together. The
