If the temperature scale is changed from $^\circ C$ to $^\circ F$, the numerical value of specific heat will

On which does the heat in a substance depend?

Draw a graph of the variation of specific heat capacity of water with temperature and define calorie.

Why does the land in a desert get hotter during the day and colder at night quickly?

The figure below shows the variation of specific heat capacity $(C)$ of a solid as a function of temperature $(T)$. The temperature is increased continuously from $0$ to $500 \ K$ at a constant rate. Ignoring any volume change,which of the following statement$(s)$ is (are) correct to a reasonable approximation?
$(A)$ The rate at which heat is absorbed in the range $0-100 \ K$ varies linearly with temperature $T$.
$(B)$ Heat absorbed in increasing the temperature from $0-100 \ K$ is less than the heat required for increasing the temperature from $400-500 \ K$.
$(C)$ There is no change in the rate of heat absorption in the range $400-500 \ K$.
$(D)$ The rate of heat absorption increases in the range $200-300 \ K$.

The ratio of the heat capacities of two bodies is $1:4$. If the rate of heat loss is the same for both bodies under similar environmental conditions,then the ratio of the rate of fall of their temperatures is:
