    study is being supported by the following theories: Principles of Heat Transfer. There are three ways on how heat transfer. One is through solid material that is conduction. Two is through light that is radiation. In addition, the last is through convection. These are all according to the U.S. Department of Energy. These principles of heat transfer support this study because it deals with a hot material, which is the soup, transferring its heat from another material. In this case, the soup will…

    CALORIMETER FORMAL LAB It never crosses one’s mind to think why food is measured in Calories. Many nutritionists are not sure of the true origin of the Calorie or why it’s supposed to be capitalized. Traditionally, a Calorie is the amount of energy needed to heat one kilogram of water one degree Celsius. It appears it was first used in engineering and physics, and then found its way in nutrition. With respect to nutrition, it is used to measure the amount of energy food contains. Some historians…

    Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and the second largest planet in the solar system. Saturn is the farthest planet from Earth and not visible to the naked human eye, but it is through a telescope that the planet’s most outstanding features can be seen: Saturn’s rings. Although the other gas giants in the solar system, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune, also have rings, those of Saturn are without a doubt the most extraordinary. Saturn is a gas giant made up of mostly hydrogen and helium gas,…

    around an area of very low pressure with strong winds that can exceed 74 miles per hour. Hurricanes use simple air convection to turn wind into a destructive device. A hurricane is formed only over warm waters near the equator. Tropical cyclones are like giant motors that use moist air as fuel, thus their reason for forming over warm ocean waters near the equator. Hurricanes use convection, the movement of hot and cold air to create monstrous storms.They begin formation by using hot humid air…

    In physics, energy is usually described as the ability of a system to perform work. However, this definition is often challenged because of the many different forms energy can hold. There have been definitions derived which are more suitable to certain contexts. Thermal energy is a more specific energy explored in this investigation process. Thermal energy is one of the types of energy which can be defined by ‘the ability to perform work’. It is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy…
