As far as I know, close to the same as a more comfortable temperature. Your body has to work to circulate blood faster during intense physical activities and regulate a lower temperature, true, but if you're looking to burn more calories in a "gym workout" form, go for a cooler temperature. Your body will have to work much harder to maintain a higher temperature. Working in a hot climate will only dissipate water from your body. However, working out in a cooler temperature can be dangerous for your muscles (your muscles work like a rubber band). Typically, you want to go for the ideal conditions. Anything extreme can be harmful such as temperatures exceeding 95 degrees or below 65. Your body may begin to shut down to preserve vital conditions otherwise.
Food is burned to see how much energy is given off. The food is places in a sealed container and burned to measure the rise in water temperature. The amount of energy given off is the amount of calories in the food.
A calorie is essentially energy stored in the form of food. It takes one calorie to increase the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius.
It takes 1000 calories to heat 1 litre of water 1 degree C.
To calculate the amount of heat given off when burning a piece of candy, you can use the energy content of the candy. Given that the candy contains either 5 calories or 5000 calories, the heat released would be either 5 calories or 5000 calories. This heat would be released in the form of thermal energy as the candy is burned down to carbon dioxide and water.
It takes 2.44 calories of heat to raise the temperature of one gram of ethyl alcohol by 1 degree Celsius.
The answer is 2 calories.
The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius is defined as the specific heat capacity of that substance. It is measured in joules per gram degree Celsius (J/g°C) or in calories per gram degree Celsius (cal/g°C).
150 Calories. a Kcal is equal to a Calorie. The capitalization of the "C" in calorie indicates that it is referring to a FOOD Calorie. typically a FOOD calorie is made up of 1000 "small c" calories. so you burned off 150. The calorie is a measure of heat but we know it as a measure of energy really. you say your tired so you need more calories when really the calories are just because of the stored "heat".CASA GRANDE HIGH SCHOOL
About 14 calories or 60 Jules
To calculate the calories required to heat up Lake Michigan by 1 degree Celsius, you would need to know the specific heat capacity of water (4.186 J/g°C) and the mass of water in Lake Michigan. The formula to calculate the energy required is: Energy = mass of water x specific heat capacity of water x change in temperature. This would give you the calories needed to heat up Lake Michigan by 1 degree Celsius.
80 calories of heat are required to melt one gram of ice without altering the temperature. There are 2267.96 grams in five pounds so you would need 181436.8 calories of heat to melt all that ice without raising the temperature.
A calorie of energy (NOT to be confused with a Calorie, they are different so watch the caps) is the amount necessary to heat 1 gram of water 1oC, so 30 calories are needed to heat 30 g of water 1 degree. To heat it 70oC would take 2100 calories (or 2.1 Calories) of energy.
