Question
Answer
When air is heated the particles move   further apart  
🗑
State a material which lets heat pass through it easily   conductor  
🗑
State a material which does not let heat pass through it easily   insulator  
🗑
Explain conduction in terms of vibrating particles   conduction involves heat energy being passed on by the vibration of particles. When the particles get hot they start to vibrate more and bump into the particles next to them.  
🗑
is air a good conductor of heat   no air is not a good conductor of heat because it's particles are too far apart and cannot pass on the vibration.  
🗑
What are heat rays also known as   Infra-red rays  
🗑
Heat transfer through gases and liquids   convection  
🗑
Heat transfer in solids   conduction  
🗑
What is a good conductor of heat   metal  
🗑
what is a good insulator of heat   wood  
🗑
Heat transfer through space   Radiation  
🗑
what is temprature measured with   thermometer  
🗑
the hotter a substance is   the greater heat energy it contains  
🗑
which colour absorbs heat better   black  
🗑
is cooper a better conductor than iron   yes it is a better conductor than iron  
🗑
the movement of less dense warm fluid upwards which is then replaced by cooler, denser fluid from below   convection current  
🗑
The ratio of the mass of an object to it's volume   density  
🗑
the scientific name for a heat picture   Thermogram  
🗑
a form of energy measured in joules   heat  
🗑
Give examples of insulators in the home   pot handles, wooden spoon etc  
🗑
Give examples of conductors in the home   pots and pans  
🗑
