What direction does heat flow? From hot to cold.
What is the thermal energy of a system? It is the sum of all the kinetic energies of its particles.
Thermal energy can only be measured as it is ___________ from one system to another. Transferred
Transferring particle energy, the motion, is called _________ and __________. Heating,Cooling
A loss of thermal energy is usually accomanied by __________ temperatures. Falling
A gain of thermal energy is usually accompanied by ___________ temperatures. Rising
The temperature of an object is directly related to the _________ kinetic energy of its atoms and molecules. Average
What was created by Gabriel Fahrenheit? The Fahrenheit scale.
Gabriel Fahrenheit later changed the fiducial points to the __________ point and __________ point of pure water. Freezing,Boiling
In 1742 Anders Celsius devised what?= A decimal temperature scale.
In 1848 Lord _________ proposed a temperature scale in which the lowest temperature would be Absolute 0. Kelvin
The freezing point of water is ____ K. 273
The advantage of the Kelvin scale is that there are _____ negative values. No
Celcius == 5/9(Fahrenheit -32)
Fahrenheit = 9/5C + 32
Kelvin = C + 273
Thermal expansion happens on what? The particle level
__________ ___________ increases with increasing temperature because ELECTRONS move more randomly. Electrical Resistance
What is the measure of the resistance of liquids to flow? Viscosity
Less viscous liquids are easier to pump, so engineers try to ______ liquids in piping distribution systems. Warm
Q= MC∆T
The quantity of thermal that flows from one place to another is called what? Heat
When two objects TOUCH, thermal energy moves from the hotter one to the colder one. What is this called? Conduction
Thermal energy carried from one location to another by a fluid. What is this Called? Convection
When hotter molecules and colder molecules are moving at the same rate, what is it called? Thermal Equilibrium
What is the best NATURAL conducter? Diamond
Natural convection occurs under the influence of what? Gravity
When you heat water the hot water rises, then cools and falls back down. What is this process called? Convection current
Thermal energy that RADIATES from the source outward. What is this called? Radiation
Thermal energy moves most efficiently through a VACUUM as __________ energy. Radiant
A __________ is large amounts of EMPTY space. Vacuum
The Higher the TEMPERATURE of the substance, the MORE _____________ energy is emitted. Electomagnetic
Radiant energy can transfer between two objects that (are or not) in contact. Not
Materials thatresist the flow of thermal energy are called what? Insulators
The best insulator is a _________. Vacuum
The relationship between the amount of thermal energy absorbed and the temperature chang caused by this. What is it? Heat Capacity
Heat capacity is found in ______ degree Celcius. Joules
C= Q/ΔT
What is the amount of thermal energy exchanged per gram of material during Melating or Freezing? Latent heat of fusion
What is the amount of heat it takes to change a liquid to a gas? Latent heat of Vaporization
__________ is the phase change as a substance changes from a liquid to a solid. Freezing
___________is the phase change as a substance changes from a solid to a liquid. Melting
___________is the phase change as a substance changes from a gas to a liquid. Condensation
___________is the phase change as a substance changes from a liquid to a gas. Vaporization
___________is the phase change as a substance changes from a solid to a gas without passing through the intermediate state of a liquid. Sublimation
___________is the phase change as a substance changes from a gas to a solid without passing through the intermediate state of a liquid. Deposition
_______________ The particular temperature and pressure at which the solid, liquid, and gaseous phases of a given substance are all at equilibrium with one another. Triple point
_______________ The point at which a substance in one phase, as the liquid, has the same density, pressure, and temperature as in another phase, as the gaseous. Critical point
_______________ The temperature at which a liquid freezes: The freezing point of water is 32°F, 0°C. Freezing point
_______________ The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the pressure of the atmosphere on the liquid, equal to 212°F (100°C) for water at sea level. Boiling Point
