The
Basics of
BREEZES
Breeze is wind
that is evident
near bodies of
water
SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY
- refers to the amount of heat required
to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a
material by one degree Celsius
- the unit of specific heat is joules per
kilogram- Kelvin (
𝐽
𝑘𝑔−𝐾
)
Specific heat
- is a description of how slow an
object heats up and how slow it cools
down
PRESSURE
• It is the ratio of force per unit area
• The greater the force exerted over an area, the
greater the pressure experienced.
• The smaller the area where a constant force is
applied, the smaller the pressure.
DENSITY
• It refers to the ratio of mass to volume.
• It is directly proportional to mass and
inversely proportional to the volume of
the material.

DENSITY
• The rule is that denser materials sink and less
dense materials float.
• With gases, the more gases inside a container,
the greater the density.
Conduction
- heat is transferred through physical
contact
Radiation
- is the mechanism that makes it
possible for solar radiation to reach you
Three Mechanisms of Heat Transfer
Convection
- is the collective movement of
molecules or aggregate of particles in a
fluiddue to the differences in temperature
Three Mechanisms of Heat Transfer
Sea Breeze
- is the breeze
that appears to come
from the sea toward
the land
- happens
during the night
Sea Breeze and Land Breeze
Land Breeze
- is the breeze
that appears to come
from the land toward
the sea
- happens
during the night
Sea Breeze and Land Breeze
