If two different substances, with the same mass (1 gram) absorb the same amount of energy, which of the following can

Physics

Answer:

The temperature of the substance with the lower specific heat will increase more than the one with a higher specific heat

Explanation:

The increase of temperature of a substance is given by:

\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_s}

where

Q is the amount of heat absorbed by the substance

m is the mass of the substance

C_s is the specific heat capacity of the substance

In this problem, we have two substances with same mass m, that absorb the same amount of heat Q. We see from the formula that the increase in temperature is inversely proportional to the specific heat: therefore, the substance with lower specific heat will have a greater increase in temperature than the substance with higher specific heat.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Reddening of sun's rays at sunset and sunrise is due to scattering of light . The white light consisting of seven colours coming from the sun are scattered in different directions when they fall on the air particles present in atmosphere . Red coloured light scatters least and it travels straight forward to the viewer on the earth . On the other hand other colours scatter most and therefore they go out of area of vision for the viewer on the earth . Since only red colour reaches the eye of the viewer , sun's ray appear red . This happens during sunrise and sunset . It is so because during this period , sun rays travel far greater distance through  atmosphere , so scattering is most pronounced .
