1
Heat and the Transfer of Energy
2
Temperature vs. Heat Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy. Heat is the transfer of energy from one object to another due to a difference in temperature.
3
Heat Always flows from a warmer temperature to a cooler temperature.
The transfer of heat will stop once temperatures have equalized.
4
Energy can be transferred in 3 ways:
Conduction – transfer of energy through contact Convection – transfer of energy by the flow of material Radiation – transfer of energy in waves or rays
5
Conduction Conductors are materials that transfer energy easily
Insulators are materials that are not good conductors, but are used to trap energy
6
Convection
7
