Cup Features
This cup feature prevents matter loss in the cup system.
What is: The Lid?
Hot particles travel:
What is: fast?
The transfer of energy, either heat or electricity, through direct contact between matter or particles of matter.
What is: conduction?
This is a representation of the average kinetic energy of particles in a system.
What is: temperature?
This is a form of non-matter that can transfer energy into our cup system.
What is: light (or heat)?
This feature prevents energy from being transferred into the cup by allowing less particle interactions.
What is: Double walls?
When a particle interacts with another particle, this is going to happen.
What is: one will slow down, one will speed up.
The process of heat transfer through the movement of a fluid (like air or water), where warmer parts rise and cooler parts sink.
What is: convection?
Not all particles in a sample have the same amount of this.
This cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred.
What is energy?
This feature changes the amount of light that is absorbed by the cup.
What is: tint?
Liquids, solids, and gases are all made up of these.
What are: particles?
The transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves, meaning it travels without direct contact between objects.
What is: radiation?
Particles in a solid do this.
What is: vibrate back and forth?
This has mass and takes up space.
What is: matter?
This feature changes the properties of the cup and the amount of energy it can transfer.
What is: the material?
If you add particles to a sample, this will go up.
What is: the total KE?
The liquid water that leaves a cup because it gains enough energy to turn into water vapor.
What is: evaporation?
Kinetic energy is a representation of this.
What is: the speed of the particle?
This is Mr. Hetcher's favorite christmas movie.
What is: Elf?
This feature offers an exit for matter in the cup system.
What is: the straw?
Particles in a gas would be this.
What is: far apart?
The water vapor that sticks to the side of a cup that is warming up; moisture in the air that loses energy when it collides with the cup.
What is: condensation?
If you add particles to a sample, this will go up.
What is: the total KE?
This is the process by which we cool our bodies down through sweat.
What is: evaporative cooling?
