Convection

Harry's family loved to grow fresh vegetables for their family to eat. During the summer Harry went into the green house and noticed the air seemed really warm inside but cooler toward the ground. This is an example of...

Convection

Lisa was hungry when she came home from school and decided that she would like to make some macaroni. She heated up the water on the stove and noticed that it was circulating in the pan. This is an example of ...

Convection

Method of heat transfer of thermal energy by fluid circulation of the movement of atoms

Convection

Transfer of energy by the flow of a liquid or a gas.

Convection

movement of matter due to differences in density that are caused by temp. variations can result in transfer of energy as heat

Convection

warm fluids or gases

Convection results from the movement of

heat

Energy transferred through partical collisions

Conduction, Convection, Radiation

Heat energy can be transfered in three ways

Preventing heat from flowing in or out of a material.

Insulation

material that transfers energy poorly

Insulator

The energy of a motion.

Kinetic Energy

cooking Pans

Material thats a good conductor

warm clothing

Material thats good insulator

Your hand touching a hot dish, You burn your hand

Name two examples of conduction

a heater, boiling water

Name two examples of convection

the sun on your skin, warmth of the fire

Name two examples of radiation

Radiation

Jake went camping with some friends. While they were up in the mountains it started getting cold so they started the fire early. The heat energy that comes off of the fire is an example of...

Radiation

Jim's dad was grilling hot dogs for their big 4th of July party. When Jim walked outside he noticed the sun beaming down on the grill Jim said, "Boy, it sure is extra hot near the grill today Dad." The sun's beam hitting the grill is an example of...

Radiation

The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.

Radiation

Transfer of heat through electromagnetic radiations

Radiation

Radiation

energy that is transferred as electromagnetic waves, such as visible light and infrared waves

Radiation

physical contact

Radiation does not require

Conduction, convection, radiation

What are the three main types of heat transfer?

how much energy is required to change the temperature of the substance by certain amount

What makes a substance a good or poor conductor depends in part on

Their particals are so far apart

Why are gases poor conductors

A pot sitting on a hot burner.

conduction

Picking up a hot cup of coffee

conduction

Touching a metal spoon that is sitting in a pot of boiling water

conduction

Using a heating blanket to get warm

conduction

energy is transferred by direct contact

conduction

the transfer of heat within a substance by direct contact

conduction

transfer of energy through matter using direct contact

conduction

transfer of heat from the Earth's surface to the Earth's atmosphere

conduction

require motion of molecules like air or water to move heat

conduction and convection

Heat transfer types

conduction, convection, radiation

How the inside of a greenhouse works.

convection

Macaroni rising and falling in a pot of boiling water

convection

Putting your wet shoes on a floor vent to dry them faster

convection

energy is transferred by the mass motion of molecules

convection

heat transfer by the movement of mass from one place to another;can take place only in liquids and gases

convection

main driving force for the transfer of heat between air masses

convection

moves about the planet heat gained by conduction and radiation from the sun;heating of the Earth isn't even

convection

the transfer of heat by the actual movement of warmed energy in a gas or liquid by movement of currents. (It can also happen in some solids, like sand)

convection

transfer of heat by physical movement of the heated substance itself (vertical movement)

convection

metal

good conductor

Total average kinetic energy, the energy that flows due to temperature differences;always transferred from warmer to cooler substances

heat energy

air

poor conductor

A person placing their cold hands over a warm fire

radiation

A person placing their hand over a hot burner

radiation

Lying out in the sun to get a tan

radiation

causes some of the Earth's heat to be lost back into space

radiation

electromagnetic waves that directly transport energy through space;sunlight is a form of this that brings heat to our planet without the aid of anything

radiation

energy is transferred by electromagnetic radiation

radiation

only way heat is transferred that can move through the relative emptiness of space

radiation

transfer of heat from the Sun to the Earth's atmosphere

radiation

What is average motion of the atoms and molecules that we sense?

temperature

True or False: all atoms have thermal heat energy because the atoms or molecules that make matter are in constant motion

true

different materials have different conductivites

why do different metals conduct heat different rates
