3. At the end of a warm summer day, imagine you are jumping from the 80°F air into an
djyliett [7]

Answer:

  • <u>1. Since the temperature of your body is higher than the temperature of the air and of the water, heat will flow from your body to the air and pool.</u>

<u></u>

  • <u>2. The pool feels cooler than air because the water can absorb heat energy faster than the air, due to liquids are better conductors than gases.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Heat always flows from warmer substances to colder ones.

The normal body temperature is 98ºF. Therefore, the heat will flow from your body to the air and pool, which are at a lower temperature of 80ºF. In both cases, you will lose thermal energy and the external parts of your body will cool down.

The difference between both cases is in the heat conduction capacity of both air and water.

Liquids (and solids) are better <em>thermal conductors </em>than gases because the conduction of heat occurs as result of the direct contact between the particles of matter: the atoms or molecules in hot matter vibrate faster than their neighbors and transmit them kinetic energy by direct contact.

Therefore, the liquid water in the swimming pool, at the same temperature than the air, will be able to absorb more heat in the same time from the body.

In conclusion, the body will cool down faster in water than in air which is why the pool feels cooler than air.

What happens to the potential energy of an object when it falling from a high place?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The higher up an object is the greater its gravitational potential energy. ... As most of this GPE gets changed into kinetic energy, the higher up the object starts from the faster it will be falling when it hits the ground. So a change in gravitational potential energy depends on the height an object moves through.

What is the temperature at which something boils? A chemical change or property or a physical change or property?
DerKrebs [107]
The boiling point of a substance is a physical property. A physical property of a material or substance is one that can be observed without changing or altering the composition of the material. Examples are mass, Density, Color, solubility, boiling point, melting point . A chemical property of a substance is one that describes how the material changes into a completely different substance and is observed only during a chemical reaction. Examples of chemical properties include types of chemical bonds, heat of combustion, reactivity with other metals, oxidation state and enthalpy of formation.
