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‚ such as: a calorimeter‚ a multimeter‚ a 6V battery and alligator clips. One interesting

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

According to the Mental Capacity Act (section 1‚ MCA) (2005) a presumption of capacity of a patient should not be made based on their medical condition‚ unless it’s been proven otherwise because every adult has the right to make their own decisions. It is important that an individual rights are protected‚ if their grounds to believe that the individual lack capacity through illness (Leathard and McLaren‚ 2007).

People’s capacity for inhumanity becomes evident when there is a time of struggle; when others need help the most. Throughout history the treatment of some individuals by others has been more than disagreeable. People’s capacity for inhumanity towards others has negatively shaped many parts of society‚ both in the past and in the present. The cruelty toward the poor people of Ireland in the year 1929 is greatly portrayed in Jonathan Swift’s essay “A Modest Proposal.” Through a persona Swift outlines

------------------------------------------------- Rice hulls Rice hulls (or rice husks) are the hard protecting coverings of grains of rice. In addition to protecting rice during the growing season‚ rice hulls can be put to use as building material‚ fertilizer‚ insulation material‚ or fuel. Production Rice hulls are the coating for the seeds‚ or grains‚ of the rice plant. To protect the seed during the growing season‚ the hull forms from hard materials‚ including opaline silica and lignin.

Aim: i) To find the relationship between supplied energy and change in temperature of water. ii) To find the specific heat capacity (SHC) of water. Hypothesis: As time increases so does the temperature since the water is exposed to the heated wire for a longer period of time. Variables: The Dependent Variable is the temperature of the water‚ and since the Energy is calculated using temperature it is a dependent variable as well. The constant variables are the voltage and current. Theory:
