    Absorbing Heat

    • 905 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Introduction- Heat is energy that is warm. Heat energy comes from different energy forms or types like electrical. Heat is also natural‚ from the sun. Heat transforms by reflecting on something and giving it warmth. The temperatures on the coloured cans will vary because they absorb different amounts of heat. According to the particle theory when an object heats up the particles spread out and move more. Aim- The aim of this experiment is to test how colour affects the amount of heat being absorbed

    Heat energy Temperature – measure of the average KE of the particles in a substance‚ measured in degrees Celsius or degrees Kelvin. Celsius 0⁰C (freezing point of water) to 100⁰C (boiling point of water) Kelvin 0 K (absolute zero‚ particles stop moving theoretically)‚ equivalent to -273.15⁰C. Uses the same scale for increase‚ ie. a 1⁰C increase in temperature equates to a 1K increase in temperature. Heat – amount of energy transferred‚ measured in Joules (J) Kinetic Energy‚ Thermal

    remove creases. It is named for the metal of which the device is commonly made‚ and the use of it is generally called ironing. Ironing works by loosening the ties between the long chains of molecules that exist in polymer fiber materials. With the heat and the weight of the ironing plate‚ the fibers are stretched and the fabric maintains its new shape when cool. Some materials‚ such as cotton‚ require the use of water to loosen the intermolecular bonds. Many materials developed in the twentieth century

    Mechanisms of Heat Transfer Prepared by: Ms. Ana Antoniette C. Illahi 1 Conduction • conduction (or heat conduction) is the transfer of thermal energy between regions of matter due to a temperature gradient. Heat spontaneously flows from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature‚ and reduces temperature differences over time‚ approaching thermal equilibrium.

    Standing wave Standing waves in a string — the fundamental mode and the first 6 overtones. A standing wave‚ also known as a stationary wave‚ is a wave that remains in a constant position. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave‚ or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions. In the second case‚ for waves of equal amplitude travelling in opposing directions‚ there is on

    REVIEW of The Wave by Morton Rhue This story‚ based on a true incident that occurred in a high school in California‚ demonstrates how easily a group can lose its freedom without even realising it. It all began when their history teacher‚ Mr. Ben Ross‚ let them watch a movie on how the Nazis in World War 2 tortured the people who opposed them. To give them a clearer picture‚ he decided to them in the situation itself. He then introduced an organisation‚ The Wave‚ and its motto‚ "Strength

    Ocean Waves A wave is a periodic disturbance in space and time‚ possibly transferring energy to or through a space-time region. Have you ever ridden a wave in the ocean? Ocean waves travel on the surface of the water. You can see them and you can feel them. As you swim through the water‚ you can even make your own waves. The winds cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The wind transfers some of its energy to the water‚ through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules

    Namee: Paul G. Zamora (Homework in Performance Techniques) Sound Waves- A sound wave is the pattern of disturbance caused by the movement of energy traveling through a medium (such as air‚ water‚ or any other liquid or solid matter) as it propagates away from the source of the sound. The source is some object that causes a vibration‚ such as a ringing telephone‚ or a person’s vocal chords. The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium; those particles disturb those next to them
