Temperature and Thermometers The Temperature of an object is a measure of the hotness or coldness of that object. An alternative way to think of temperature is to say that “the temperature of an object is a number – on some manmade scale – that indicates the hotness of the object”. ‘Hotness’ in turn is a measure of the kinetic energy of the molecules of the material. Note: You must use the term ‘hotness’.* The SI unit of temperature is the Kelvin (K)* Relationship between degrees Celsius

What effect does temperature have on the oxygen production of enzymes in an animal’s liver? A temperature which is too high would be able to produce little to no oxygen because of the extreme temperature. Just like a temperature too high‚ a temperature which is too low would also produce little to no oxygen for the same reason. Animals that have livers are considered warm-blooded‚ with very warm temperatures; therefore it would make sense for a warm temperature to produce the most oxygen; but one

Chapter 2: Climate‚ Landforms‚ and Biomes Greece has an interesting physical characteristics such as Mount Olympus. It is the highest mountain in Greece‚ which is 9‚573 feet (2‚918 m) tall. Its highest peak is the Mytikas. According to the Greek mythology‚ there are twelve Olympian gods lived in this mountains. About four-fifth of Greece was cover with mountains and hills. The major mountain ranges of Greece is Pindus Mountains. It was located more in the northern Greece. Pindus Mountains

Discuss the characteristics of a biome you have studied. Biomes are large world regions in which climate‚ soils‚ natural vegetation and animal life are all interrelated. The biome that i have studied is the desert biome. Dry Climate Desert climate is very dry‚ with a yearly rainfall of between 0 and 250mm. Although deserts are very dry regions‚ very few deserts are completely dry. Parts of the Atacama Desert in Chile are said to be the driest places on earth. They receive an average of less than

Investigation Into Temperature Sensors Introduction In this project I will be investigating how it is possible to use a temperature sensor to keep a greenhouse from changing temperature too much. This is intended to help plants live and grow in their optimum temperature. This will create a perfect temperature for the enzymes in the plants to work in‚ and therefore resulting in a maximum growth/production rate. This could be useful for gardeners who wish to grow plants as quickly as possible

Heat and Temperature Heat is often described by the average individual as being the change in temperature from hot to cold. “Often the concepts of heat and temperature are thought to be the same‚ but they are not.” Heat and Temperature‚ para. 2) Perhaps the reasoning behind the incorrect reasoning is that humans associate the two together because when heat is applied to an object the temperature rises. The kinetic theory of matter better explains the underlying cause as to what takes place

AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED FAN H ere is a circuit through which the speed of a fan can be linearly controlled automatically‚ depending on the room temperature. The circuit is highly efficient as it uses thyristors for power control. Alternatively‚ the same circuit can be used for automatic temperature controlled AC power control. In this circuit‚ the temperature sensor used is an NTC thermistor‚ i.e. one having a negative temperature coefficient. The value of thermistor resistance at
