Q:

Which of the following is not an intensive property?

A) Weight B) Density
C) Refractive index D) Melting point
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Weight

Explanation:

An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example, the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system, if the system is divided in half, the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. Additionally, the boiling point of a substance is another example of an intensive property. For example, the boiling point for water is 100 °C at a pressure of one atmosphere, a fact which remains true regardless of quantity.

Q:

In general, which is the cause of a sea breeze?

A) Pressure B) Specific heat
C) Heat D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Specific heat

Explanation:

The usual cause of sea breeze is the difference in specific heat capacity between land and water Land heats and cools more quickly than water.

 

What is the cause of a sea breeze?

The air over the land is warmed and rises, to a greater temperature than that over the sea. This produces a convection current, with cooler air flowing in from over the sea to replace that rising from the land. At night the land cools more than the sea, so the action reverses to produce a land-breeze, blowing off the land.
