This thermal energy transfer only occurs for two substances or between two locations when there is a temperature difference. A mug of hot cocoa that is left sitting out in a room exhibits all three methods of thermal energy transfer: the cocoa loses heat by conduction through the cup’s sides (by direct contact with cooler molecules), the cup’s surface loses heat by radiation as electromagnetic waves are emitted and the air near the cup heats by convection as the air by the cocoa warms, rises, cools and then sinks creating a small convection current.Directions: For one day, document and describe examples of conduction, radiation and convection that you directly observed throughout the day.Record your observations and descriptions on the attached sheets. For each real life example, make sure to also identify which direction the heat flowed. You may supplement your work with diagrams and pictures.ConductionConvectionRadiationConductors vs Insulators Classwork Name: __________________________Classwork #48th Grade PSIObjective: Use simulations to explore examples of conductors and insulators as they relate to thermal energy transfer.Go to and scroll down until you see the simulation.Insulate the beaker by choosing what you think is the best thermal insulator until you are correct.Now you will complete an online experiment in which you determine how conductive (or how insulating) different materials are.First, you are going to see how the liquid temperature changes with time when the beaker is not wrapped with material.

Molecular attraction in a liquid is less than that of a solid but more than that of a gas allowing molecules to slide and flow past each other. Gases have the weakest molecular attraction and gas molecules move easily and freely past each other.Hot soup water molecules move faster than cold water.The kinetic energy of a substance with a temperature of absolute zero is near zero. There is little to no motion.They differ by 273degrees. For example, 0 degrees Celsius corresponds to 273 Kelvin, the freezing point of water.?When the liquid inside a thermometer is heated, it will expand. Since the liquid in a thermometer is encased in a narrow tube, the amount of expansion is easily visible and can be measured. The same principle works when the liquid inside the thermometer is cooled. In this case the liquid will contract and the liquid level will go down reflecting a decrease in temperature.The alcohol level will be higher than the mercury level because the alcohol molecules are not as attracted to each other as the mercury molecules. When heated, this allows for the alcohol to experience more thermal expansion.100.4 degrees Fahrenheit13 degrees Celsiusa) ?195 Kelvin ?b) ?-108.4 degrees FahrenheitIn degrees Celsius: -93, 75, 7.22 (in order -93, 7.22, 75)In degrees Fahrenheit:-135.4, 167, 45 (in order -135.4, 45, 167)In Kelvins: 180, 348, 280 (in order 180, 280, 348)Thermal Energy versus Temperature CW #2Answer KeyA: 2g piece of ice at -1° C B: 2g piece of ice at -28°C Kinetic Energy TemperaturePotential EnergyThermal Energy>Justification:Higher temp>Justification:Higher temp=Justification:Same state >Justification:KE is more, so TE is moreA: liquid water at 25 CB: liquid water at 77 FKinetic Energy TemperaturePotential EnergyThermal Energy=Justification:They actually have the same temperature (have to convert)=Justification:They actually have the same temperature (have to convert)= Justification:Same temperature, same state.

Summary questions:Define kinetic energy.Energy of motionWhat does temperature indicate about the motion of molecules or particles in a substance?The higher the temperature, the faster the molecules and vice versa.How is potential energy related to molecules in matter?It is related to the attractive forces between molecules in matter. The further away molecules are from each other (i.e. close together in a solid), then the less potential energy there is.Explain the difference between thermal energy and temperature.Temperature is the average kinetic energy of molecules whereas thermal energy is the TOTAL molecular energy of a substance.Temperature and Thermal Energy HW #2Answer KeyTemperature is proportional to the average molecular kinetic energy. Thermal energy is the total molecular kinetic and potential energy.Temperature and thermal energy are directly proportional IF the amount of substance in question is the same.The hotter water will have more thermal energy because it has more kinetic energy (due to its higher temperature). A big bowl of soup and a small cup of soup may have the exact same temperature or average molecular kinetic energy. But the bowl has more soup molecules overall, so it has more thermal energy than the small cup of soup.Heat flows from the sauce to the tongue because heat flows from hot to cold and the sauce is hotter than the tongue.Case ‘a’ will have more energy transfer because there is a larger temperature difference between the water and the environment. Two objects at the same temperature do not exchange heat because they are in thermal equilibrium.A conductor is a material that easily allows for thermal energy transfer while an insulator is a material that does not. An example of a conductor is aluminum while an example of an insulator is cloth.The wooden spoon will feel warmer because it is not as good a conductor as the metal spoon. In fact wood is an insulator. This means, energy is transferred less efficiently from your hand to the wooden spoon compared to when you touch the metal spoon. This means your hand cools less efficiently when you touch the wooden spoon, so the metal spoon feels cooler.a. Heat transfer through direct contactb. Heat transfer from the movement or circulation of fluids or gases of different temperature.c. Heat transfer via electromagnetic radiation.It does not require a medium for thermal energy transfer.Conductors because molecules are closer together allowing thermal energy to transfer from molecule to molecule easily.Radiation- from the warmth of the fireConduction- marshmallows touch the fireConvection- air above fire experiences convection currents (sparks)14. Radiation Methods of Thermal Energy Transfer CW#3Answer Key2. answer key for table is attached3. Radiation- when the grill gets hot, it emits infrared radiation that travels through the air and is then absorbed by the bacon. Convection- water molecules near the bottom heat, rise, cool down at the top and then sink starting the cycle over and creating a convection current until all the water is heated. Conduction- As the pan heats, its molecules heat and start to vibrate. These vibrating molecules transfer their energy through the pan to the food. The food molecules in contact with the pan therefore start vibrating (heat up).4.Choose one example that you got incorrect on the first try and explain why it actually belongs in the heat transfer category it is in.Answers will varyMethod of Heat TransferDescriptionDescribe the animationOther examplesRadiationAnswers may vary some:Transfer of energy along electromagnetic wavesWhen the wave comes into contact with an object, the energy is transferredRadiation is the only heat transfer method that can travel through empty space.Electromagnetic waves from the sun travel through the air and reach the house. The house absorbs this thermal energy and the temperature inside the house increases.Camp fireMicrowave ovenLight bulbHuman bodyConductionAnswers may vary some:Transfer of thermal energy between things that are in direct physical contactHeat flows when molecules in one object that are vibrating cause molecules in a neighboring object to vibrateWorks best in solids because particles are close togetherDoesn’t work as well in liquids and less so in gases due to the spacing of particlesThe molecules in the burner heat up and vibrate causing the molecules in the bottom of the pot to vibrate because they are touching. These vibrations (thermal energy) go through the entire pot. When the person reaches to touch it, the energy from the vibrations of the molecules in the pot handle are transferred to the molecules in the hand. Ouch!Metals are good conductors (get hot and cold quickly because thermal energy propagates through them quickly)Air and gases are not good conductors because thermal energy does not transfer easily from molecule to molecule as they are spaced apart.ConvectionAnswers may vary some:Transfer of heat by movement through a medium such as air or liquidPrimary heat transfer method for gases and liquidsWhen a gas or liquid is heated, the liquid expands and rises because it is less dense. When the medium cools, it sinks because it is denser.The cycling of a hot medium rising and a cold medium sinking creates a convection current.The stove is lit warming the air around in. This air rises because it less dense but then cools as it gets farther away from the stove. This cool air then sinks close to the stove where it is warmed again and rises creating a convection current.Water boilingHot air balloonA building (attic is warmer than a basement)Thermal Energy Transfer HW#3Answer KeyAnswers will vary from student to student.Conductors versus Insulators CW#4Answer Key5. 6.

Since the apples have a larger specific heat capacity, it required more thermal energy to bring the apples to the same temperature as the aluminum. This larger amount of thermal energy will transfer to your hand if you touch it since your hand is cooler.Sand has a lower specific heat than water.

Sample outcome:Image from as Heat Engines CW#6Examples of output you should expect to see when your students do this activity.Possible SST maps for DURING RitaPossible SST maps for AFTERSST Time SeriesAnalysis Students should see that there is large drop in sea surface temperatures after the hurricane has passed. This is because the hurricane draws in warm moist ocean surface/air and uses it almost like fuel. This “fuel” is converted to heat energy in the thunderstorms that form around the hurricane eye. This heat refuels the hurricane. SSTs drop because the hurricane “uses” up the warm surface waters to fuel itself. Often, water from deeper in the ocean upwells to replace the surface waters. ................
