Absorbing and Losing Absorbing and Losing HeatHeat Heat Absorption- refers to the rate Heat Absorption- refers to the rate
at which materials absorb heat. at which materials absorb heat. Every material absorbs heat at a Every material absorbs heat at a particular rate. particular rate.
Which will absorb more heat: a black Which will absorb more heat: a black sweater or a white sweater? Why?sweater or a white sweater? Why?
Specific Heat Capacity Specific Heat Capacity (SHC)(SHC) DefinitionDefinition: a measure of the ability : a measure of the ability
to absorb or lose heat. (J/gto absorb or lose heat. (J/g• + C)• + C) SHC of waterSHC of water: 4.19 : 4.19 J/gJ/g• + C• + C
– So, one gram of water absorbs 4.19 So, one gram of water absorbs 4.19 Joules to raise the temp. by 1 degreeJoules to raise the temp. by 1 degree
– One gram of water loses 4.19 Joules to One gram of water loses 4.19 Joules to lower the temp. by 1 degreelower the temp. by 1 degree

capacity it will warm up quicker. Think capacity it will warm up quicker. Think about being on a beach. The water is about being on a beach. The water is much cooler than that of the sand, much cooler than that of the sand, because it takes longer to heat up because it takes longer to heat up water.water.

You remember from chapter five You remember from chapter five that oceans heat up slower than that oceans heat up slower than the land…with the knowledge of the land…with the knowledge of specific heat capacity tell me why?specific heat capacity tell me why?– Water has a higher SHC than the land Water has a higher SHC than the land
therefore the land is going to heat up therefore the land is going to heat up faster while the water will heat up faster while the water will heat up slower…storing lots of thermal slower…storing lots of thermal energy which will be released at energy which will be released at night with the warm night sea night with the warm night sea breeze.breeze.
