Heat will continue to transfer between two areas or objects until

both areas/objects are the same temperature

the colder object absorbs all of the heat energy

all heat energy is lost to the air

Which of the following is an example of conduction?

heat moving from warm sand to your feet at the beach

heat rising from the coils of a stove

Which of the following is the best example of the process of radiation?

Warmed air rises above a candle

Socks are warmed up by placing them on a woodstove

Warm air rises because

it is less dense than the surrounding cooler air

it is more dense than the surrounding cooler air

it is equally as dense as the surrounding cooler air

Which of the following best explains why the end of a spoon sticking out of a cup of hot water also gets hot just like the end of the spoon in the hot water?

The heat from the hot water is conducted through the spoon.

The heat from the hot water is convected through the spoon.

On a hot day, Jenny walked home from the grocery store with a bag of chocolate chips. When she arrived home the chocolate chips had melted in the bag. Why did the chocolate chips melt?

Heat transferred from the environment to the chocolate chips.

Heat evaporated from the bag to the chocolate chips.

Heat transferred from the chocolate chips to the bag.

Heat condensed from her hand to the chocolate chips.

A pot is made out of aluminum, but the handles are plastic. Which of the following statements best describes why these materials are used in this way?

Aluminum is a conductor of heat, which allows the pot’s temperature to increase rapidly, while plastic is a heat insulator, preventing rapid heat transfer and keeping the handles cool.

Plastic is a heat conductor, which allows heat to move quickly out of the handles, keeping the handles cool, while aluminum is a heat insulator that holds the heat within the pot.

Both aluminum and plastic are good conductors and allow heat to transfer throughout the pot.

Both aluminum and plastic are heat insulators that keep the heat contained within the pot.

The diagram , which shows two insulated Styrofoam cups of water connected by an aluminum bar. The thermometers show the temperature of the water in Cup A and Cup B at the beginning of a heat-flow experiment. Which if the following statements is NOT CORRECT?

Thermal energy is transferred from Cup A to Cup B by radiation through the aluminum bar.

Styrofoam Cup A would be cooler to touch than the aluminum bar because it is a better insulator.

The aluminum bar would be warm to the touch because it is a good conductor of thermal energy.

Thermal energy is transferred from Cup A to Cup B through conduction in the aluminum bar.

The diagram , which shows two insulated Styrofoam cups of water connected by an aluminum bar. The thermometers show the temperature of the water in Cup A and Cup B at the beginning of a heat-flow experiment. Over the next 15 minutes, which changes would most likely occur?

The temperature in cup A will decrease and the temperature in cup B will increase.

The temperature in cup A will decrease and the temperature in cup B will decrease.

The temperature in cup A will increase and the temperature in cup B will increase.

The temperature in cup A will increase and the temperature in cup B will decrease.

The illustration shows a solid metal ball and a ring before and after heat is applied to the metal ball. Before heat is applied, the metal ball passes easily through the ring. After heat is applied, the metal ball does not pass through the ring. Why does heating the metal ball caused this change?

The ball the ball absorbs the heat causing it’s particles to increase its motion. The particles spread apart from one another which causes thermal expansion. The resulting size increase due to thermal expansion will not allow the ball to pass through the ring.

The ball the ball absorbs the heat causing it’s particles to decrease its motion. The particles get closer one another which causes thermal contraction. The resulting size increase due to thermal contraction will not allow the ball to pass through the ring.
