A student investigated the change in temperature when oils of different specific heat capacities were heated. She set up the apparatus shown in Figure 5.
This is the method used.
1. Put 25 g of oil into a boiling tube.
2. Pour 100 ml of water into a beaker and heat it with a Bunsen burner.
3. When the water is boiling, put the boiling tube into the beaker.
4. When the temperature of the oil reaches 30 °C, heat for a further 30 seconds and record the rise in temperature.
5. Repeat with different oils.
6. Repeat the whole investigation.
Name two pieces of apparatus the student used that are not shown in Figure 5 suggest one improvement to the students method

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.

Which of these statements best explains how the hydrosphere interacts with the atmosphere to affect global climate? mountains block rain clouds and cause changes in global rainfall and evaporation. humans burn fossil fuels to produce greenhouse gases which cause global warming. humans cut down trees which affects the amount of oxygen in different parts of the globe. greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, dissolve in oceans and prevent global warming.
