11. Thermal Conductivity & Specific Heat
Why does the metal of the seat buckle burn your hand but the cloth does not? (Hint: They are the same temperature!)
The metal is a conductor that has a higher thermal conductivity and therefore transfers the heat to your hand very quickly burning your hand!

Specific Heat
Different substances have different capacities for storing energy
It may take 20 minutes to heat water to 75°C. However, the same mass of aluminum might require 5 minutes and the same amount of copper may take only 2 minutes to reach the same temperature.

Specific Heat Values
Specific heat is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1°C. (how easily it changes temp when losing or gaining energy)
Look at theTable . The specific heat of the cloth of a seat belt is more than twice that of the metal buckle. So, for equal masses of metal and cloth, the same thermal energy will increase the temperature of the metal twice as much as the cloth. The higher the specific heat of something is, the more energy it takes to increase its temperature. Table 2 shows that most metals have very low specific heats. On the other hand, the specific heat of water is very high. This is why swimming-pool water usually feels cool, even on a hot day. The same energy heats up the air more than it heats up the water.

Measuring Heat (Q)
Requires
Grams of substance (mass)
Temperature change (T)
Specific heat of the substance (c)
Unlike temperature, energy transferred between objects can not be measured directly. Instead, it must be calculated. When calculating energy transferred between objects, you can use the definition of heat as the amount of energy that is transferred between two objects that are at different temperatures. Heat can then be expressed in joules (J).

31. Heat and Temperature Heat:
Heat is the energy that flows from one object to another when there is a difference in temperature between the objects. Heat is the average kinetic energy of atoms or molecules making up the system.
Temperature:
Temperature is an indication
of whether or not and in which
direction, the heat will flow
(Temperature is an indication
of the average of kinetic energy
of atoms or molecules).
