insulator or conductor
something that dose not transfer heat well
what is insulator
metal
what is conductor
power derived from the utilization of physical or chemical resources, especially to provide light and heat or to work machines.
what is energy
What type of energy is involved when you heat water in a pot on a stove?
what is thermal
How does a blanket keep you warm on a cold night?
what is The blanket decreases the transfer of thermal energy from your body to the air
what transfer heat well
what is conductor
the transfer of heat through physical touch
what is conduction
energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.
what is kinetic energy
What type of heat transfer is involved when a pan is being heated on a stove?
what is conduction
What is heat?
what is The transfer of thermal energy from one object to another
what is the best conductor
what is metal
rubber and glass
what is insulators
also referred to simply as heat
what is heat transfer
What type of heat transfer is involved when you heat a room?
what is convection
What happens to thermal energy when you hold a cup of hot cocoa in your hands?
what is As you hold the cup of hot cocoa, the heat moves to your hands
what is three examples of insulators
what is wood, rubber, plastic, glass
the transfer of heat though liquid or air
what is convection
the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.
what is convection
Why would a wood floor feel colder than a floor covered with carpet?
what is Wood floor conducts heat better than carpet
How is energy transferred when an ice pack is applied to a sprained ankle?
what is Heat energy is transferred by conduction from the ankle to the ice pack
if a piece of copper is placed on a battery what would happen
what is the battery heats up
what is the conduction, convection, and radiation
what is heat transformation
A current in a fluid that results from convection.
what is convection current
You pour ice water into four cups. Each cup is made of a different material; foam, glass, metal, plastic. Which material will be coldest to the touch after one minute? Why?
what is Metal because it is a better conductor of heat and will transfer the heat away from it quickly
You place a cold spoon in hot cocoa. After 10 minutes the spoon feels warm and the cocoa has cooled down. What is happening to the thermal energy in the cocoa and the spoon?
what is The cocoa lost thermal energy to the spoon, and the spoon gained thermal energy from the cocoa
