Thermal Energy Internal energy: total amount of the energy of the particles that compose matter

What is the difference between heat, temperature and thermal energy? Heat: the quantity of thermal energy transferred from a hotter to a colder object Temperature: the measure of the average kinetic energy of the vibrating particles that compose an object Thermal energy: the total amount of internal energy possessed by the particles that compose matter

When matter gets warmer, the atoms or molecules in the matter move faster.

Temperature and Kinetic Energy Temperature is related to the average kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules in a substance. The faster the molecules move, the ______________ the temperature and the _____________ the average kinetic energy and the __________ the particle speed. greater greater greater

21.2 Heat What causes heat to flow? A difference in temperature between objects in thermal contact.

21.4 Internal Energy When a substance takes in or gives off heat, its internal energy changes.

21.3 Thermal Equilibrium What happens when a warmer substance comes in contact with a cooler substance? Heat flows between two objects of different temperature until they have the same temperature. (2nd law of thermodyamics) The loss of thermal energy from the warmer object equals the gain of thermal energy for the cooler object

21.8 Thermal Expansion Most forms of matter—solids, liquids, and gases—expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled.

21.8 Thermal Expansion When the temperature of a substance is increased, its molecules jiggle faster and normally tend to move farther apart. This results in an expansion of the substance. Gases generally expand or contract much more than liquids. Liquids generally expand or contract more than solids.

Starter Question #2 How does a thermometer work? The kinetic theory be used to explain expansion and contraction of materials when the temperature of the material changes. As the temperature rises, heat is transferred from the surroundings to the liquid inside the thermometer and the molecules that compose the liquid vibrate faster. This causes the liquid to expand and rise. As the temperature falls, heat is transferred away from the liquid inside to the surroundings and the molecules that compose this liquid slow down. This causes the liquid to contract.

The liquid in the thermometer stops rising or falling when thermal equilibrium is reached (no more heat flow!) Air temperature = Liquid temperature

Do copper, clay and water have the same chemical composition? 21.6 Specific Heat Capacity Do copper, clay and water have the same chemical composition? No. Copper is composed of Cu atoms and water is composed of H2O molecules. Clay is a complex silicate. The difference in chemical composition influences how copper, clay and water respond when heat is transferred.

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity The specific heat capacity of a substance is the quantity of heat required to raise 1 g of a substance by 1 degree Celsius.

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity A substance with a high specific heat capacity can absorb a large quantity of heat before it will raise in temperature (water has a high specific heat). A substance with a low specific heat requires relatively little heat to raise its temperature (copper has a low specific heat).

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity highest lowest

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity think! Which has a higher specific heat capacity—water or sand? Explain.

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity think! Which has a higher specific heat capacity—water or sand? Explain. Answer: Water has a greater heat capacity than sand. Water is much slower to warm in the hot sun and slower to cool at night. Sand’s low heat capacity, shown by how quickly it warms in the morning and how quickly it cools at night, affects local climates. Good conductors have a low specific heat capacity!

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity A gram of water requires 1 calorie of energy to raise the temperature 1°C. It takes only about one eighth as much energy to raise the temperature of a gram of iron by the same amount. The capacity of a substance to store heat depends on its chemical composition.

21.6 Specific Heat Capacity

Substances with a low specific heat (e. g Substances with a low specific heat (e.g., metals) need very little heat to raise temperature Good conductors, not good absorbers, do not hold onto heat well Substances with a high specific heat need a large quantity of heat to raise temperature. Poor conductors, good absorbers, store and hold onto heat well

7. How does the specific heat of water help to moderate climate?

Winter Vs. Summer Heat Flow In winter -Heat loss from inside (warmer) to outside (colder) -Heating system must operate to transfer thermal energy from fuel to fluid to room to keep house warm In summer -Heat gain from outside (warmer) to inside (cooler) - Cooling system must operate to transfer incoming heat entering the house back to the outside

Why do we need heating systems? What do the green arrows represent? How does this heat flow affect the temperature of the air inside the home? Where does the energy come from that increases the temperature of the air inside the home?

Explain why the heat flow for a home is different in the winter vs Explain why the heat flow for a home is different in the winter vs. the summer.

22.2 Convection Convection currents are produced by uneven heating. During the day, the land is warmer than the air, and a sea breeze results.

22.2 Convection Convection currents are produced by uneven heating. During the day, the land is warmer than the air, and a sea breeze results. At night, the land is cooler than the water, so the air flows in the other direction.

21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water The property of water to resist changes in temperature improves the climate in many places.

21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water Water has a high specific heat and is transparent, so it takes more energy to heat up than land does.

Moderating Effect of Water During the summer, surrounding air is cooled by the water and keeps the coast cooler than the intercontinental locations. During the winter, the surrounding air is warmed by the water and keeps the coast warmer than the intercontinental locations.

Gulf Stream brings warm water northeast from the Caribbean. 21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water Water’s capacity to store heat affects the global climate. Water stores and hold heat well because of its high specific heat. Gulf Stream brings warm water northeast from the Caribbean.

21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water Climate of Europe Look at a world globe and notice the high latitude of Europe. Both Europe and Canada get about the same amount of the sun’s energy per square kilometer.

Marine Climate Continental Climate Cork Edmonton Same insolation angle, different climate due to proximity to water and the warming effect from the Gulf Stream http://www.sampleireland.com/weather-in-ireland-year-round.html

The Gulf Stream brings warm winters to Ireland and the prevailing winds off the Atlantic carry with them rain. It means grass can grow almost all year round — creating the lush sweeping pastures of the Emerald Isle. Today they make up 93 percent of all farmland. No other country in Europe has quite as much grass as Ireland.

21.7 The High Specific Heat Capacity of Water Climate of America On the west coast, air moves from the Pacific Ocean to the land. In winter, the water warms the air that moves over it and warms the western coastal regions of North America. In summer, the water cools the air and the western coastal regions are cooled. The central interior of a large continent usually experiences extremes of temperature. Land, with a lower specific heat capacity, gets hot in summer but cools rapidly in winter.

Changing Angle of Sunlight Reason for the Seasons 2 Changing Angle of Sunlight The hemisphere tilted toward the Sun receives sunlight at higher angles than the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun. Higher insolation angle means greater intensity of radiant energy (the sun shines more directly on a smaller area). Summer in Northern Hemisphere
