1 Thermal Energy (Heat energy)

2 EQ: What is the relationship between heat, thermal energy, & temperature?
Write the EQ at the VERY TOP of the RIGHT page Title your page: TEMPERATURE & HEAT

3 Temperature & Heat Temperature – measure of the AVERAGE value of KINETIC ENERGY of the molecules in random motion 2 units in SI (Metric System) Celsius (0C) Kelvin (K) Thermal Expansion – ALMOST all substances EXPAND when heated and CONTRACT when cooled. The EXCEPTION is WATER! Thermal Energy – sum of the KINETIC and POTENTIAL energy of all the particles in an object.

4 Temperature Conversion Equations…
Temperature & Heat Temperature Conversion Equations… Heat – thermal energy that flows from something at a HIGHER temperature to something at a LOWER temperature.

5 Answer the EQ: What is the relationship between heat, thermal energy, & temperature?
Answer the EQ at the VERY TOP of the LEFT page Video to summarize: (Heat v. Temperature) 0/1295

6 EQ: How are conduction and convection different?
Write the EQ at the VERY TOP of the RIGHT page Title your page: TRANSFERRING THERMAL ENERGY

7 Transferring Thermal energy
Thermal energy is transferred from place to place by: CONDUCTION CONVECTION RADIATION Transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles in matter (DIRECT CONTACT) *occurs in SOLIDS, LIQUIDS, and GASES. METALS are BEST conductors of heat!* Transfer of thermal energy in a FLUID by the movement of warmer and cooler fluid from place to place *occurs in FLUIDS (liquids and gases). RISING of WARMER fluid and SINKING of COOLER fluid forms a CONVECTION CURRENT!* Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves *Radiation is MOST important in GASES

8 Transfer of thermal energy
CONDUCTION CONVECTION RADIATION Examples: Touching a HOT pot “shocking” someone by dragging your feet Melting ice in your hand Weather currents Convection currents in the mantle of the earth Water boiling in a pot Heat you can FEEL Heat from a fire Heat from the sun “wiggly” lines you see when you look across a HOT parking lot DRAW this diagram of HEAT TRANSFER in your NOTEBOOK!

9 Transfer of thermal energy
Insulator – material in which heat flows slowly Examples: wood, plastics (most), fiberglass, air, wool, clothing, oven mitts Conductor – material in which heat flows quickly Examples: most metals conduct heat/electricity

10 Answer EQ: How are conduction and convection different?
ANSWER the EQ at the VERY TOP of the LEFT page Video to Summarize: (Conduction) 0/448
