specific heat capacity explained

This video covers specific heat capacity and uses the concept to explain why water is used as a coolant and explain why it coastal regions have differing temperature ranges than inland regions.

Anyone else here cuz their teacher made them

This video's are so great. Heat capacity is one of those concepts although simple definition you never have a physical sense of what is about. Thanks.

Wow a 10 minute vid tought me more than a 1hr lesson in class

I was confused when I saw pizza as a background in a physics video and now... I'm both hungry and know what specific heat capacity is

[MandeepKaur-derq]

Another thing is when we bake pizza why the cheese get hotter faster than crust. The cheese should have low specific heat because it is heating up faster, but according to google search cheese is having high specific heat?

First 35 seconds, my mouth was watering

If the kilograms (kg) were different: for example a block of copper at 1 kg is put into water at 2 kg, the specific heat capacity is 1480 and energy is what is required - how would you work this out? I was taught difference in temperature, not kgs. Thanks :)

[sanoberhameed]

What about the factors affecting the specific heat capacity???

[piyushjain]

Thank you for this amazing explanation🙏🙏🙏 ❤❤❤🔥

8:38 . How do yu know that the heat capacity is 4182 j/kg/c° because it doesnt say anything about heat capacity in question.

great one sir.
I learnt from Pakistan

[MandeepKaur-derq]

Is specific heat and specific heat capacity are same? If water has high specific heat, it means it has high specific heat capacity also?

[triscuitbiscuit]

Thank you for helping me with my homework -w-

[santoshsharma-orzu]

I have question from my textbook . Can anybody tell me about the specific heat capacity of water in different systems of units along with the conversion ?

[alshaymaalthani]

that was excellent and made easy thank you

[gracechen]

Excellent explanation and application of the topic! Thanks!

[nthumara]

that means when everttime we substitute for temperatioer do the have to be celcias

hi. i was doing a experiment to measure water specific heat capacity in a controlled environment with high precision temperature measuring equipment and energy meters, vacuum insulated water container, 4.5kg of distilled water-to minimize the errors, i was stirring the water to avoid temperature stratification and every single time i got values for Cp around 4724 J/kgC. I run out of ideas of what could create the difference. Can we find out who and when and how were calculated values for water what we take for granted? i calculated the thermal losses to minute values and still doesn't get even close to the book values for water Cp-the difference is too high. Can anyone please give me an idea?

[elvinchia]

Thank you for the succinct explanation.

omg i am trying to distract my self form food while doing a fast, and there is this huge juicy pizza slapped onto my screen lol
