Answer:
specific heat means the substance takes a lot of heat to raise its temperature by 1⁰C. Also, water gives out a lot of heat when it cools by 1⁰C.
During winter water from oceans and rivers collects heat during the day and gives out during the night. The atmosphere gets warmed up in the night. It helps people from cold.
Explanation:
helps people from cold. During summer because water takes a lot of time to heat up, water remains relatively cool compared to the atmosphere. That is why people swim a lot in pools and in rivers. Higher specific heat means the substance can absorb or discard high amount of energy with less change in its temperature.
