How does thermal energy work? | It flows from a material at a higher temperature to a material at a lower temperature |
What are thermal conductors? | Metals, Aluminum, Copper, and Gold |
What three ways can heat be transferred? | Heat conduction,Convection, and thermal Radiation |
What heats up quicker oil or water? | Oil |
What is Heat Conduction? | It is the transfer of heat by the direct contact of particles of matter |
What is the definition of Convection? | Is the transfer of heat through the motion of fluids, such as air and water |
What are thermal insulators? | Foam, wood, and plastic |
What is the definition of Radiation? | Electromagnetic waves including light produced by objects because of their temperature |
If You have a cup of hot coffee what will happen to the metal spoon? | The heat from the coffee will move up the spoon using conduction |
What happens if you turn on the heat in a cold room? | The heat will circulate around the cold air and rise above pushing cooler air lower |
If you put ice cubes in cold water on a warm desk what happens? | The cup will condensate and the ice will slowly melt |
Based on our investigation in lab, which has the lowest specific heat nails, flour, or water? | Nails |
What is specific heat? | The amount of energy needed to change the temperature of a certain material |
What does High specific heat do? | Heat up or cool down slowly |
What does Low specific heat do? | Heat up or cool quickly |
A substance has a specific heat of 2J/KG. How much energy is required to raise 10kg of the substance by 3 degrees? | 60J |
A 3kg object has a specific heat of 2J/gc. How much energy is needed to raise the temperature of the object by 3 degrees? | 18J |
24J of heat is applied to a 4kg object. If the temperature rises by 2 degrees, what is the specific heat of the object? | 6J |
What is the heat equation? | E=mCp(T2-T1) |
What does the heat equation tell you? | The energy it takes to change the temperature of a mass of a substance with a specific heat value. |
