| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What gives off heat energy? | fire, heater, lava, matches, light bulb, stove, microwave, |
| What does NOT give off heat energy? | thermometer, melting ice cream. waterfall |
| How does heat from a bowl of soup move as it begins to cool off? | Convection- heat moves from the liquid soup to the fluid air |
| What happens to the particles in an ice cube when it begins to melt (get warmer)? | If the ice cube gets warmer, then its particles move faster or gain thermal energy. |
| What will heat up the MOST on a sunny day? | a black flag |
| What is thermal energy? | is the energy or moving particles. We also call it heat energy. |
| If the temperature increased, what would happen to the liquid inside of the thermometer? | the liquid expands and pushes up or rises |
| What does a thermometer measure? | temperature |
| What kind of energy is produced by friction? | Heat |
| What kind of energy is produced by the sun? | heat |
| What kind of energy is produced by bicycle brakes? | heat |
| What kind of energy is produced by a fire? | Heat |
| What kind of energy is produced by a hair dryer? | Heat |
| What kind of energy is produced by some chemical reactions? | Heat |
| What is conduction? | is heat transfer when solids, pot on a stove, hand on something hot or cold |
| What is convection? | is heat transfer by mixing liquids or gases, water in a pot, fish tank, air on a sunny day |
| What is radiation? | is heat transfer when there is no matter, by energy waves, microwave, sun |
| What is the temperature of boiling water? | 212 degrees |
| What is the temperature of freezing water? | 32 degrees |
| How does insulation work? | Insulator slows down heat transfer, cold things stay cold because it doesn't let heat IN. Hot things stay hot because it doesn't let heat OUT. |
| Why does a person wear gloves? | The gloves stop heat from leaving your hands |
| Why does a person use a hot pad? | This keeps the heat from the pad going into our hands and burning them |
| How is heat from the sun transferred to the Earth? | Heat is transferred through radiation by energy waves |
| The sun's energy is changed into thermal energy when what happens? | the energy is absorbed by a material. If a material is shiny it will reflect light |
| What is the normal temperature of a healthy person? | 98.6 degrees |
| What happens when a person gets a fever? | The normal goes up to 100 degrees |
