- 2. What is Heat? This is the movement of thermal energy from a substance at a higher temperature to another at a lower temperature.
- 3. Heat vs. Temperature Heat is the actual energy… Temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.
- 4. Heat is NOT Temperature
- 5. Heat Transfer Heat Transfer Heat always moves from a warmer place to a Heat always moves from a warmer place to a cooler place. cooler place. Hot objects in a cooler room will cool to room Hot objects in a cooler room will cool to room temperature. temperature. Cold objects in a warmer room will heat up to Cold objects in a warmer room will heat up to room temperature. room temperature.
- 6. Heat Transfer Methods Heat transfers in three ways: Conduction Convection Radiation
- 7. Conduction Conduction heat transfer is the flowing of heat energy from a high-temperature object to a lower-temperature object.
- 8. When you heat a metal strip at one end, the heat travels to the other end. As you heat the metal, the particles vibrate, these vibrations make the adjacent particles vibrate, and so on and so on, the vibrations are passed along the metal and so is the heat. We call this? Conduction
- 9. The outer e______ of metal atoms drift, and are free to move. When the metal is heated, this ‘sea of electrons’ gain k_____ energy and transfer it throughout the metal. Insulators, such as w___ and p____, do not have this ‘sea of electrons’ which is why they do not conduct heat as well as metals. lectrons inetic ood lastic
- 10. Metal is a conductor, wood is an insulator. Metal conducts the heat away from your hands. Wood does not conduct the heat away from your hands as well as the metal, so the wood feels warmer than the metal.
- 11. Convection Convection takes place when heated molecules move from one place to another, taking the heat with them. Convection is common in both the atmosphere, as well as in the oceans. Convection is the primary way that heat moves through gases and liquids.
- 12. Convection
- 13. What happens to the particles in a liquid or a gas when you heat them? The particles spread out and become less dense.
- 14. Hot water rises Cooler water sinks Convection current Cools at the surface
- 15. Where is the freezer compartment put in a fridge? Freezer compartment It is put at the top, because cool air sinks, so it cools the food on the way down. It is warmer at the bottom, so this warmer air rises and a convection current is set up.
- 17. How does heat energy get from the Sun to the Earth? There are no particles between the Sun and the Earth so it CANNOT travel by conduction or by convection. ? RADIATION
- 18. Radiation travels in straight lines True/False Radiation requires particles to travel True/False Radiation travels at the speed of light True/False
- 19. Radiation The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. Examples: Sun Fire Light bulb
- 20. Why are houses painted white in hot countries? White reflects heat radiation and keeps the house cooler.
- 22. 1. Which of the following is not a method of heat transfer? A. Radiation B. Insulation C. Conduction D. Convection
- 23. 2. In which of the following are the particles closest together? A. Solid B. Liquid C. Gas D. Fluid
- 24. 3. How does heat energy reach the Earth from the Sun? A. Radiation B. Conduction C. Convection D. Insulation
- 25. 4. Which is the best surface for reflecting heat radiation? A. Shiny white B. Dull white C. Shiny black D. Dull black
- 26. 5. Which is the best surface for absorbing heat radiation? A. Shiny white B. Dull white C. Shiny black D. Dull black
