पर्याय

• Land

• Air

• Water

• None of these.

Answer 1

1 calorie per gram per 1°C is the specific heat of water.

Explanation:

1 calorie per gram per 1°C is the specific heat of water. This means water requires 1 calorie of heat to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C. Land has a much lower specific heat, nearly one-fifth that of water, so it heats and cools faster than water.
