Temperature

Anders Celsius was born in 1701 in Uppsala, Sweden. He created the Celsius scale of temperature in 1742. When he created the Celsius scale, 0 degrees was the boiling point of water and 100 degrees the freezing point. The Celsius system stayed this way until Jean Pierre Cristin, a french man, flipped the Celsius system to how it is today. That is with 100 degrees being boiling point and 0 degrees being the freezing point. Anders Celsius died in 1744. He was 42 years old. Celsius had made a great

reaction. The mean times for the different temperatures show the overall trend and effect of the temperature on reaction rate it allows for quick and accurate conclusions to be found. From the data the conclusion was formed that temperature had a noticeable effect on reaction rate. The mean values were as follows: 322s (cold 8-13⁰C), 82.56s (ambient 25-28⁰C) and 34.82s (hot 35-37⁰C). Cold water had a noticeable time difference to ambient and hot temperatures, that being that cold water clearly had the

This was determined by observing how some deeper depths have a warmer temperature than depths that are not as deep. For example, on the high latitude temperature graph, the temperature is 0°C at a depth of 250 m. However, at deeper depths the temperature is warmer; one can assume that mixing took place. 2.) The mid-latitude winter water temperature and high latitude water temperature are both very low. The water temperatures in these two latitudes range from 0°C-10.2°C, which could potentially cause

1. Describe and give examples of the various ways that heat can be transported in the atmosphere. There are a variety of ways that heat can be transported in the atmosphere. The first method is conduction. According to Ahrens (2015) conduction is referred to when heat shift from one molecule to another (p. 33). A reoccurred example of conduction we see every day is when we cook. You put a pan on the stove and turn on the stove top. The heat from the burner transfers to the cold pan to heat the

Bradenton, Florida temperatures climates are similar to those of the tropics. Looking at the climatological chart above we can see that the second day of each month of August, September, October, March, May and July temperatures can range from eighty one degrees to a record high of ninety six degrees, with low temperatures falling to sixty two degrees in May. In the slightly cooler months of December, January, February, April and June temperatures did not exceed seventy nine degrees, nor fall below

optimal temperature at which the enzyme amylase best functions. Since an increase in temperature speeds up the movement in molecules, the substrate is supposed to come in contact with the active site of the enzyme more quickly and frequently until the heat becomes an obstacle by denaturing the structure of these enzymes and thus changing its function. There were a total of four different temperatures at which amylase activity was observed (Table 1). In order to ensure that temperature was the only

TJ November 7, 2017 Period 3 Heat Fracture on Rocks Background Heat fracture is when an increase in volume is observed, due to an increase in temperature. Simply meaning that while a material is being heated, the rise in temperature causes it to take up more space. Heat fracture doesn't only deal with high temperatures, it also deals with the effects of cooling on a material. If cooling occurs then the opposite of expansion occurs as well, the material will begin to shrink or decrease in size. Continuous

CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW Background A temperature controller is an indispensable component when processing transmission in optical fiber in order to acquire accurate results. The optical IC should be operated in a stable environment, including temperature, fixed construction and no other external interference. Thus, providing a constant temperature and steady working environment is priority task for the temperature controller. The controller mentioned in this thesis is required to realize

Investigating the Effects of Temperature on the Rate of Respiration of Blowfly Larvae This experiment was setup to investigate the effects of temperature on the rate of respiration of blowfly larvae. Background Knowledge The maggots involved in this investigation were blowflies at the larval stage of development, and they breathe through spiracles in the anterior and posterior segments. The respiratory tracts are not as developed at this stage, as the organism is
