(a)
Interpretation:
The reason due to which perspiration cools the body, during the heavy exercise should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Evaporation is the process of converting water (mostly) in liquid state to the gaseous state. Due to change in state of water from liquid to gas its temperature increases and energy is required for such change in state, Thusthe water molecules undergoing evaporation, decreases the temperature of the surface by absorbing the heat energy from it.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason for wet towels to dry quickly on a hot summer day as compared to a cold winter day should be explained.

- .. The temperature of a 15.0 g sample of a metal (specific heat 0.040 J/g.°C) is raised by 18.2°C. How much heat (in J) has been absorbed by the metal? (15.09)(0.040g )arrow_forwarddoes it compare with the known melting and boiling point? (1) 9. The average kinetic energy of water molecules is a measure of the temperature of water. When the temperature of water remains constant the average kinetic energy of the molecules remains constant, even though the water is being heated by the Bunsen flame. So, energy is being taken in by the water, but it is not being used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules. 9.1 What type of energy are the water molecules gaining during a phase change?
