What is heat? | The amount of particles in a substance. |
What types of objects have more heat? | Bigger objects. |
What is temperature? | How fast the particles are moving in a substance. |
What is radiation? | Energy moving in waves. |
What is conduction? | Energy moving by particles touching/bumping into each other to transfer heat. |
What is convection? | Currents of air being warmed, speeding up, rising up, because it is less dense, then cooling, sinking, because it is more dense, and is reheated again to continue the cycle. |
What objects absorb more energy? | dark colored and rough |
What objects reflect more energy? | light colored and smooth |

Metal is an example of a... | conductor |
What do we call a substance that does conduct heat/electricity easily? | conductor |
What do we call a substance that does not conduct heat/electricity well? | insulator |
Making a grilled cheese sand which is an example of what type of heat transfer? | conduction |
Making pop corn is an example of which type of heat transfer? | radiation |
Boiling a pot of Ramen noodles is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
Making toast is an example of which type of heat transfer? | radiation |
Butter melting on toast is an example of which type of heat transfer? | conduction |
The lava flowing in a Lava Lamp is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
Currents of air being heated, speeding up, rising because the current is less dense, then cooling, sinking because it is more dense, and then reheated to create a cycle is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
The transfer of energy through particles touching is called? | conduction |
The transfer of energy moving in waves is called? | radiation |
Roasting a marshmallow could be an example of which types of heat transfer? | convection, conduction, or radiation |
Grilling a steak cold be an example of which types of heat transfer? | conduction, convection, radiation |
Using a hair dryer is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
Frying bacon is an example of which type of heat transfer? | conduction |
Using a tanning bed is an example of which type of heat transfer? | radiation |
Ironing your shirt is an example of which type of heat transfer? | conduction |
Drying your clothes in the dryer is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
The sun is an example of which type of heat transfer? | radiation |
If I put a copper rod on a hot plate and heat the rod, that situation is an example of which type of heat transfer? | conduction |
If heat comes out of the floor vents in my house,this situation is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
If I go to a tanning bed, this situation is an example of which type of heat transfer? | radiation |
How does energy from the sun get to us? | radiation; energy moving in waves |
How does energy from a hot pot, heat a spoon that has been left in the pot? | conduction; the spoon is touching the bottom of the hot pot, which causes the particles closest to the heat source to speed up/heat up, transferring heat down the length of the spoon. |
How do Ramen noodles cook? | convection: the water is heated, speeds up, rises up because it is less dense, transfers heat to the noodles, becomes cooler water, which sinks because it is more dense, and then is reheated by the bottom of the hot pot to start the cycle again. |
Why do baseball players wear white jerseys? | white colored objects reflect energy/heat |
Why does a blacktop driveway get so warm during the summer? | dark colored objects absorb energy/heat |
What has more heat...a lake or a cup of hot coco? | A lake because it has more atoms |
What has more heat...a lit match or a glacier? | A glacier because it has more atoms |
What has more heat...a piece of pizza or a turkey? | A turkey because it has more atoms |
What is radiation? | Heat energy moving in waves |
What is conduction? | Heat energy transferred through touching. |
What is convection? | Heat energy moving in currents. Air is heated, speeds up, rises, is less dense, cools, sinks, is more dense, re-heated to start the cycle again. |
Having your house warmed by a fireplace is an example of which types of heat transfer? | radiation or convection |
Cooking in a cast iron skillet OVER a campfire is an example of which type of heat transfer? | convection |
