Binx has warm soft beds all over the house. He has 1 in Matt's room, 2 in the guest room, 5 in the living room and 4 in his bedroom. This is how many beds Binx has on average per room?

What is an average of 3 beds per room?

Sample A has an average kinetic energy of 12.8J. Sample B has an average kinetic energy of 34.6J. This sample is warmer.


What is sample B?

Ms. Johnson's Goddaughter just got a new job at subway. Ms. J warned her about how delicious and addictive subway cookies are. But her warning was not heeded. On Monday, Mariangel ate 1 cookie. On Tuesday, she ate 3 cookies. On Wednesday she ate 6 cookies. On Thursday she ate 3 cookies and on Friday she ate 2 cookies. This is the average number of cookies Mariangel ate per day.

What is 3 cookies per day?

This Sample has more kinetic Energy 

What is Sample A?

200

This happens to the speed of molecules causing a temperature increase.

What is speed up?

When two objects exchange energy they will continue to exchange energy until this is achieved.

What is equilibrium?

Ms. Johnson's Godson is very good at basketball and likes to play at lunch. Here are his stats for each game this week: Monday - 32 points, Tuesday- 44 points, Wednesday- 21 points, Thursday- 43 points, and Friday- 20 points. This number is his average points per day for the week.

What is 32 points per day?

This sample has more kinetic Energy and here is how we can tell

What is sample B? What is by the lines showing speed and direction?

This is the definition of temperature that include the terms kinetic energy and average 

What is the average kinetic energy of an object?

When my hands are cold I wrap them around Binx and they get warmer. This is why 

Binx's body gives my hands thermal energy warming them up

This is how you find the average of a set of numbers.

What is add all of the numbers together and divide the sum by the number of numbers?

True or false: Molecules get their speed from energy they create. 

What is False? Energy cannot be created or destroyed only transferred.

Melting ice caps are not the main cause of sea level rise, this is.

What is thermal expansion? 

400

This is why there are water droplets on the outside of this cold bottle. 

What is energy is being exchanged between the cold water in the bottle and the warmer air outside the bottle and when the water vapor in the air looses enough energy it becomes liquid and attaches to the bottle?

This is the first law of energy that Ms. Johnson has discussed many times in class.

What is "Energy cannot be created or destroyed"?

Ms. Johnson and her best friend Rachel love to go tide pooling and every thanksgiving they go to Carmel and play species scavenger hunt. Here are the scores  for the past 5 years. Year 1: Rachel 14, Kate 36. Year 2: Rachel 21, Kate 40. Year 3 Rachel 28, Kate 23. Year 4: Rachel 31, Kate 23. Year 5: Rachel 41, Kate 38. This person had the higher average of species identified per year. 

Who is Kate?

Rachel identified on average 27 rocky intertidal species per year

Kate identified on average 32 rocky intertidal species per year.

This is Ms. Johnson's favorite tea cup that she uses every night. When she leaves the lid on, the tea stays hot longer. This is why. 

What is the lid slows the energy exchange between the hot tea and the surrounding air.
