How will the energy in the paint buckets move if they are touching?

From the bottom to the top/ From the bucket in the garage to the one in the outside

200

If the top and bottom bricks touch, what will happen to the top bricks?

They will get warmer/they will get energy

300

Which has more energy, a cup of water at 20 C or a cup of water at 100 C

The cup at 100 C

300

True or false.  If object 1 has a higher thermal energy than object 2, than object 1 must ALWAYS have a higher temperature than object 2

False

A boy puts an ice cube in a cup of hot soup.  Eventually, what will happen to the temperatures of the ice cube and the soup?

They will be the same

300

Which paint bucket will increase in energy if they touch?

400

Which has a higher average kinetic energy, a teacup of water at 80C or a bathtub of water at 40C

The teacup

400

True or false: Larger objects USUALLY have more thermal energy

True

400

How does the speed of the molecules of an ice cube compare with the speed of the molecules in a cup of hot soup?

The molecules in the ice cube are slower than the ones in the soup.

400

After they touch for a long time, what will be the final temperature of each bucket?

They will both be 14 degrees.

400


After they are touching for a while, which top brick will be cooler?

Sheila's

An object has four molecules.  The speeds of the molecules are 4, 5, 3 and 4kj.  What is the temperature of the object.

4 C

500

True or false: Things with more thermal energy take longer to heat up and cool down.

True

500

A girl takes some ice cream out of the freezer.  What happens to the speed of the molecules in the ice cream when it is taken out of the freezer.

They speed up.

500

What is the thermal energy of the paint bucket outside?

90

500

Why do things that have more molecules take longer to heat up and cool down?

Because they energy has to spread out over more molecules
