Answer:
(d) Water has a high specific heat.
Explanation:
At night, when the temperature of earth goes down due to loss of heat , the temperature of water is lost slowly and temperature of land is lost fast because of high specific heat of water . Water loses as well as gains temperature comparatively slowly due to its high specific heat .
During daytime when earth gains heat , the temperature of land rises more rapidly than water so water appears cool even during daytime when land becomes hotter . It is also due to high heat holding capacity of water or due to high specific heat of water .
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Mass of object (m)=6 kg
falling height(h)=10 m
mass of water(
)=600 gm
temperature of water =15
specific heat of water 
Let T be the Final Temperature of water
Here Object Potential Energy is converted into Heat energy which will be absorbed by water
Potential Energy(P.E.)
Heat supplied
T-16=0.234
This is not an efficient way of heating water as there is only
increase in temperature.
A sound wave is a wave of compression and rarefaction, by which sound is propagated in an elastic medium such as air.
