Heat and Heat Transfer Heat
2
Announcements Vocab quiz tomorrow! Heat exam on Friday!
3
Scales of Measurement Celsius scale – based on where water freezes (0C) and where water boils (100C) Kelvin scale – based on the movement of particles
4
Absolute Zero At 0 K, all particle movement has ceased
It is impossible to have a temperature lower than 0 K 0 K = -273C
5
Kinetic-Molecular Theory
The faster particles move, the greater the kinetic energy or thermal energy.
6
Temperature –average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance
Definitions Temperature –average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance Thermometers measure temperature Heat – amount of energy transferred
7
Thermal equilibrium Energy will always travel from an area of higher energy to an area of lower energy.
8
Conduction: energy transfer between solids.
Heat transfer Conduction: energy transfer between solids. Convection: mass motion of a fluid (liquid or gas) Radiation: emission of EM waves, no medium needed
9
Specific Heat Amount of energy that must be added to the material to raise the temperature of a unit mass one temperature unit. The units of specific heat are J/kg·K or J/kg·°C
10
Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy lost by one object must be equal to the amount gained by another object.
