8. Heat can move by travelling as infrared waves. These are electromagnetic waves, like light waves, but with a longer wavelength. This means that infrared waves act like light waves: They can travel through a vacuum. They travel at the same speed as light – 300,000,000 m/s. They can be reflected and absorbed. What are infrared waves? Infrared waves heat objects that absorb them and are also known as thermal radiation.

9. If two objects made from the same material have identical volumes, a thin, flat object will radiate heat energy faster than a fat object.

10. Investigating thermal emission

11. Emitting thermal radiation All objects emit (give out) some thermal radiation. Matt black surfaces are the best emitters of radiation. white silver matt black best emitter worst emitter Certain surfaces are better at emitting thermal radiation than others. Shiny surfaces are the worst emitters of radiation. Which type of kettle would cool down faster: a black kettle or a shiny metallic kettle?

12. Investigating thermal absorption

13. Absorbing thermal radiation Infrared waves heat objects that absorb (take in) them. best emitter worst emitter best absorber worst absorber white silver matt black Matt black surfaces are the best absorbers of radiation. Certain surfaces are better at absorbing thermal radiation than others. Good emitters are also good absorbers. Shiny surfaces are the worst emitters because they reflect most of the radiation away. Why are solar panels that are used for heating water covered in a black outer layer?
