QuestionAnswer
the temperature of a gass is proportional to the average kenetic energy of the gas molecules
the kinectic molecular theory explains the expansion of a solid material with increases of temperature as basically the result of molecules moving a little farther apart
two degree intervals on the celsius temperature scale are equivalent to 3.6 farenheit degree intervals
a temperature reading of 2*c is equivalent to 35.6*F
the temperature known as room temperature is nearest to 20*c
using the absolute temperature scale, the freezing point of water is correctly written as 273 K
the metric unit of heat called a calorie is all of the above (specific heat of water, energy needed to increase the temp of 1 gram of water 1 degree celsius, equivalent to a little over 4 joules of mechanical work)
which of the following is a shorthand way of stating that the temperature change of a substance is directly proportional to the quantity of heat added Q 8 delta T
the quantity known as specific heat is the energy needed to increase the temp of 1 gram of a substance 1 degree celsius
if 1 kg of soil and 1kg of water each recieve 1 kcal of energy, ideally the soil will be 5*c warmer than the water
the heat transfer that takes place by energy moving directly from molecule to molecule is called conduction
the heat transfer that does not require matter is radiation
styrofoam is a good insulating material because it contains many tiny pockets of air
the transfer of heat that takes place because of density difference in fluids is convection
when a solid, liquid, or a gas changes from one physical state to another, the change is called, a phase change
latent heat is "hidden" because it goes into or comes out of internal potential energy
as a solid undergoes a phase change to a liquid state, it absorbs heat while remaining at a constant temperature
the condensation of water vapor actually warms the surroundings
water molecules move back and forth between the liquid and the gaseous state at all times with evaportaion, condensation, and saturation defined by the net movement
no water vapor is added to or removed from a sample of air that is cooling, so the relative humidity of this sample of air will be higher
compared to cooler air, warm air can hold more water vapor
a heat engine is designed to convert heart into mechanicla energy
the work that a heat engine is able to accomplish is ideally the equivalent to the difference in the heat supplied and the heat rejected

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
