Heat and Heat Technology Chapter 10
How do you get your body warmer?
Temperature Temperature: Measures average kinetic energy; the more kinetic energy the warmer the object
Thermometer Instrument used to measure temperature Usually filled with alcohol or mercury Degree is the unit used to measure temperature
Temperature Scales Fahrenheit scale commonly used in the U.S. Freezing is 32° and boiling is 212° Celsius scale is used in science Freezing is 0° and boiling is 100° Kelvin scale is based upon absolute zero, no negative temperatures Freezing 273 K and boiling 373 K Scientist use this scale because 0 K is the lowest temperature possible, it has never been reached (theoretical)
Temperature Conversions C is Celsius F is Farenheit C = 5/9 (F-32) F = 9/5 (C+32 Let's try converting 68 degrees Farenheit to celsius 5/9(68-32) Step 1: 68 less 32 is 36 Step 2: 5 divided by 9 is Step 3: multiply the repeating decimal by 36 Step 4: your solution is 20 Now, convert 20 degrees Celsius to Farenheit to check your work. 9/5C +32 Step 1: 9 divided by 5 is 1.8 Step 2: 1.8 multiplied by 20 is 36 Step 3: 36 plus 32 = 68 C to K C = K + 273
Thermal Expansion Most substances (all phases) expand when the temperature is increased However; water expands as it cools from 4° C to 0° C. Ice becomes less dense than liquid water
Thermostat Thermostat is used to change temperature of a heater Bimetallic strip is used inside to sense the change in temperature. Two metals are joined together, each having its own rate of expansion. It coils or uncoils reaction to heat turning the electric circuit on or off
Heat Is the energy transferred between objects that are at different temperatures
Thermal Energy The sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object measured in joules
Heat Transfers: Conduction Heat is transferred through a substance by direct contact Works best in solids because all the atoms are touching
Thermal conductors and thermal insulators Conductors- iron, aluminum, copper, and silver Insulators- wood, plastic, rubber, and air
Convection Takes place in liquids and gases It is the up and down movement called convection currents Heated material rises because it is less dense
Radiation Heat is transferred through empty space Ex: heat from the sun, an open fire, or heater
Specific Heat The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1° C, expressed as calories/gram Water 1.00 cal/gr Aluminum 0.22 cal/gr Mercury 0.03 cal/gr
Calculating Heat Energy Heat gained or lost = mass * T * Specific heat ( T change in temperature either + or -) How much energy would it take to raise the temperature of 4 grams of aluminum from 0° to 5°? 4g * 5° * 0.22 = 4.4 cal
Phase Changes A change in phase requires heat energy but temperature does not rise until the phase change is complete ice melts to water water vaporizes to a gas
Heat of Fusion from a solid to a liquid Freezing point of water is 0° C and the melting point of ice is 0° Heat of vaporization from a liquid to a gas Vaporizing point of a liquid in 100° C and the condensation point of a gas is 100° C During a phase change there is only a change in energy not temperature
Calories The scientific "calorie" is spelled with a lower-case "c". One "calorie" = Joules The "dieter's" calorie is spelled with an upper-case "C". One "Calorie" = 1000 calories Calorie is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of liquid water 1 degree Celsius 1 calorie = 4.2 joules
Heating Systems Hot water can be used to heat a room by the heat being radiated through pipes Warm air heating, a furnace heats the air and it is circulated through the room Solar energy collectors are placed on the roof and collect the energy in water
Heat Engines External heat engines
