How much heat energy is required to raise 1 liter of water 10 degrees C?"
Trick question. Ten degreesF is damn chilly and 10 degree C equals 50 degrees F.
I worked in weather for 33 years and one of thing I had to during that 33 years was inflate a big balloon and tie a parachute and radio to the thing and let it fly at 00 hour Zulu and 12 hours Zulu. That's Greenwich Mean time for those that don't know. That radio measures pressure, temperature and humidity with some balloon reaching 60K+ height in altitude which was measure IIRC in meters. Temperature data was in degrees Celsius. Interesting fact that degrees F and degrees C become the same way up yonder at minus 40 degrees. I always enjoyed working up those RAOBS. Made the time go by fast. PJ
