Temperature is one of the weather elements and measures the degree of hotness and coldness in a place. The temperature of a place is affected by a number of factors such as latitudinal location‚ seasonal variations‚ albedo of the place‚ contrasts between land and sea and elevation. Latitudinal location has the strongest influence on the climatic conditions on a macro/global scale. The rest of the factors then serves to modify these influences and are secondary‚ operating at a smaller scale. Latitude

Results The diameter of the cylinder (D) is 0.01m and the length of the heater (L) = 0.07m. The emissivity of the surface was 0.95 and the Stefan Boltzmann constant was 56.7x10-9 Wm-2K-4. The room temperature was assumed to be 25°C which is 298.15K. At a trendy east London bar‚ a group of body hackers are putting forward their reasons for human augmentation to a packed audience of mainly under-35s‚ many of whom are sporting piercings and tattoos. Putting a chip under your skin is not so very different

substances catch fire at a different temperature. The lowest temperature at which a substance catch fire is called its ignition temperature. Combustible substances do not catch fire or burn as long as its temperature is lower than its ignition temperature. Now let me do an activity which tells you why reaching ignition temperature is necessary to burn an object. You know that paper catch fire with a flame. Let me

Heat‚ Temperature‚ and Phase Changes Assessment Practice Answer This graph shows what happens to the temperature of the water‚ while it was boiling in a kettle‚ as heat energy was being added to it and what the water was doing will it began to warm and change states. During a phase change‚ the temperature remains mainly constant. This occurs because the heat energy is used to break the bonds between the ice molecules as they turn into a liquid phase. It is possible to constantly

Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down chemical energy‚ most commonly glucose and oxygen‚ for use in the body as ATP with the release of water and carbon dioxide as bi-products (Mauseth‚ 2014). This process can be observed by careful analysis of the metabolic rate which is the total amount of energy released by an organism per unit mass. The respiratory quotient (R.Q) is the ratio of CO2 molecules lost per O2 molecules consumed which can be used to determine the efficiency of the metabolic

The effect of environmental factors such as temperature‚ osmotic pressure‚ oxygen concentration and pH on microbial growth and survival Abstract: Microbial growth can be affected by different environmental factors such as temperature‚ osmotic pressure‚ oxygen concentration and pH. Six experiments were carried out in this report testing for microbial growth against different environmental factors. Good aseptic techniques were used to prevent contamination‚ resulting in a uniform set of results
