2. Chapter Eleven: Heat
11.1 Heat
11.2 Heat Transfer

3. 11.1 What is heat? Heat is thermal energy that is moving.
Heat flows any time there is a difference in temperature.
Because your hand has more thermal energy than chocolate, thermal energy flows from your hand to the chocolate and the chocolate begins to melt.

4. 11.1 What is heat?
Heat and temperature are related, but are not the same thing.
The amount of thermal energy depends on the temperature but it also depends on the amount of matter you have.

5. 11.1 Units of heat and thermal energy
The metric unit for measuring heat is the joule.
This is the same joule used to measure all forms of energy, not just heat.

6. 11.1 Heat and thermal energy
Thermal energy is often measured in calories.
One calorie is the amount of energy it takes to raise the temperature of one milliliter of water by one degree Celsius.

7. 11.1 Specific heat
The specific heat is a property of a substance that tells us how much heat is needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of a material by one degree Celsius.
Knowing the specific heat of a material tells you how quickly the temperature will change as it gains or loses energy.

8. 11.1 Why is specific heat different for different materials?
Temperature measures the average kinetic energy per particle.
Energy that is divided between fewer particles means more energy per particle, and therefore more temperature change.
In general, materials made up of heavy atoms or molecules have low specific heat compared with materials made up of lighter ones.

10. 11.1 The heat equation

11. Solving Problems
How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of a 250-liter hot tub from 20°C to 40°C?

12. Solving Problems Looking for: Given: Relationships: Solution:
…amount of heat in joules
Given:
V = 250 L, 1 L of water = 1 kg
Temp changes from 20°C to 40°C
Table specific heat water = 4, 184 J/kg°C
Relationships:
E = mCp(T2 – T1)
Solution:
E = (250L × 1kg/L) × 4,184 J/kg°C (40°C - 20°C) = 20,920,000 J
Sig. fig./Sci. not. 20,920,000 J = 2.1 x 107 J

13. 11.2 Heat transfer
Heat conduction is the transfer of heat by the direct contact of particles of matter.
Conduction occurs between two materials at different temperatures when they are touching each other.
Where is the heat energy conducted to and from in this system?

14. 11.2 Heat transfer
Thermal equilibrium occurs when two bodies have the same temperature.
No heat flows in thermal equilibrium because the temperature is the same in the two materials.

15. 11.2 Thermal conductors and insulators
Materials that conduct heat easily are called thermal conductors and those that conduct heat poorly are called thermal insulators.
Is a down coat a conductor or an insulator?

17. 11.2 Convection
Convection is the transfer of heat through the motion of matter such as air and water.
The hot water at the bottom of the pot rises to the top and replaces the cold water.

18. 11.2 Convection
Convection is mainly what distributes heat throughout a room.

19. 11.2 Thermal radiation
Heat from the Sun is transferred to Earth by thermal radiation.
All the energy the Earth receives from the Sun comes from thermal radiation.
The higher the temperature of an object, the more thermal radiation it emits.

20. 11.2 Thermal radiation Thermal radiation is also absorbed by objects.
The amount of thermal radiation absorbed depends on the surface of a material.
Dark surfaces absorb most of the thermal radiation they receive.
Silver or mirrored surfaces reflect thermal radiation.

21. 11.2 Heat transfer, winds, and currents
A thermal is a convection current in the atmosphere.
When a surface, like a road absorbs solar radiation, it emits energy as heat.
The warmed air molecules gain kinetic energy and rise.
Colder air is forced aside and sinks.

22. 11.2 Thermal radiation
There are giant convection currents in Earth’s atmosphere.
The global wind patterns and Earth’s rotation also cause surface ocean currents to move in large circular patterns.
