Energy Distribution
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Energy from the sun is distributed on Earth by _______, ________, and __________. | Convection, conduction, and radiation. |
| _____ is the transfer of energy by waves that can travel through empty space. | Radiation |
| Due to Earth’s warm surface causing the warmer air to rise transfers thermal energy. | Convection |
| The thermal energy transferred from Earth's surface powers the global circulation of the _____ on our planet. | Atmosphere and ocean currents |
| When air or water is heated, the molecules move _____. | farther apart |
| When air or water is heated, the molecules rise. (True or false) | True |
| When air or water is heated, the density of the molecules is _____. | reduces or decreased |
| When air or water is heated, the molecules move ... (faster or slower) | Faster |
| Warm air or water rising, cooling off and then descending forms a cyclic rising/falling pattern called _____. | Convection |
| Cooler air or water molecules move (faster or slower). | Slower |
| Cooler air or water is denser than warm air or water. This fact causes cooler water or air to be at the (top or bottom) of a room or lake. | bottom |
| Warming your feet by the fire is what type of heat transfer? | Radiation |
| Warming your hands by holding a warm hot chocolate mug is transferring heat how? | Conduction |
| When water boils, or the air rises at the equator due to intense heat, then the air or water cools, it creates a rise and fall circular cycle. This is heat transferring as ______________. | Convection |
