Energy for the home P1a and P1b

?
What is temperature?
Temperature is a measurement of hotness on an arbitrary scale.
1 of 9
What is temperature a measurement of?
The average KE of particles
2 of 9
What is heat?
Heat is a measurement of energy on an absolute scale
3 of 9
How is energy transferred by conduction?
The transfer of KE between particles due to free electrons
4 of 9
How is energy transferred by convection?
The expansion of a liquid or gas when it's heated causes a change in density (normally less dense) which causes it to rise and results in bulk fluid flow
5 of 9
How is energy transferred by radiation?
Infrared radiation is an electromagnetic wave and needs no medium(can travel through vacuum).
6 of 9
Why does temperature not change during a change of state?
When a substance changes state, energy is needed to break the bonds that holds molecules together.
7 of 9
Which colours represent hot temperatures on a thermogram?
White,Yellow and Red
8 of 9
Which colours represent cold temperatures on a thermogram?
Black,Dark Blue and Purple
