When the sun's heat turns to liquid water into water vapor we call it?
Transpiration
What brings down the lake level down on a hot summer day?
The water evaporates into the air. This is called evaporation. Evaporation is caused by the heat of the sun. If it is cloudy or cold, the water is not likely to evaporate.
What are examples of heat keeping materials?
Newspaper and styrafoam.
What is the amount of energy required to change a material from a liquid to a gas?
Latent Heat of Evaporation, or Evaporation Enthalpy. It is given in units of energy over unit of mass, i.e., KJ/Kg.
Describe a method of insulation that can completely eliminate heat loss by conduction?
Installing fiberglass batting will completely eliminate heat loss.
Is precipitation heat loss or heat gain?
heat loss
What is the method of heat loss referred to?
evaporation
Requires a gain or loss of heat energy?
A temperature change requires as gain or loss of heat energy.
During exercise which avenue of heat loss does the body rely upon most?
Evaporation
What is adiabatic combustion?
NO Heat Loss , No Heat gain
What process can humans lose heat but not gain it?
Humans can lose heat through processes such as conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation. However, humans cannot gain heat through evaporation because it is a cooling process where heat is transferred from the body to the surrounding environment.
Is body heat lost evaporation?
Body heat is not primarily lost through evaporation. It is typically lost through radiation, conduction, and convection. Evaporation can contribute to heat loss, but it is not the main mechanism in the human body.
Fog forms whenever there is a loss of heat from the earth through?
Evaporation
What are the 5 ways heat is exchanged with the body?
metabolic heat production (heat gain) radiated convection conduction evaporation
What amplifies the effects on temperature by increasing heat loss by evaporation and convection?
Wind
What is the primary mode of heat loss?
The primary mode of heat loss in humans is through radiation, where body heat is emitted in the form of infrared radiation. Other modes of heat loss include conduction, convection, and evaporation.
What is a physical change in matter caused by a loss or gain of heat called?
A physical change in matter caused by a loss or gain of heat is called a thermal change.
