Question

MADHUBUN 4 Heat WORKSHEET B A. Name the following: 1. The degree of “hotness" or "coldness" of a body 2. A device used to measure temperature 3. Wind movement from the sea towards the land 4. Wind movement from the land towards the sea 5. This mode does not requirement any medium for transfer of heat​

Answer 1

Final Answer: 1. The degree of hotness or coldness of a body is known as temperature.

2. Thermometer is the device used to measure temperature.

3. Wind movement from the sea towards the land is known as a sea breeze.

4. Radiation mode does not required any medium for transfer of heat.

Explanation:

1. The temperature of the system is the property that determines whether or not the system is in thermal equilibrium with the neighbouring system.
2. Thermometers sense the temperature ( coldness or hotness ) of the body.
3. Water has greater heat capacity than a land. The Land gets heated more than the sea in the daytime and the air above the land gets heated fast and has low pressure than the air above the sea has high pressure. Due to low pressure on the surface of land causing the movement of wind towards the sea.
4. Heat traveling by radiation is called radiant heat. Maxwell defined radiation as the transfer of heat from a hot body to a cooler body without appreciable heating of the intervening medium (or space)
