9th Grade- Chapter 11 & 12 Test Review

The amount of thermal energy stored in an object depends on:

• the mass of the object.

• the temperature of the object.

• the amount of energy that the particular material stores per degree of temperature.

• All of the above

Heat is defined as the:

• average kinetic energy of the molecules of an object.

• amount of thermal energy an object contains.

• average temperature of a substance.

• flow of thermal energy from one object to another object.

When thermal energy flows, it raises the temperature of some substances more than others. This property of a substance is called:

• specific heat.

• latent heat.

• dew point.

• equilibrium.

If you hold a paper cup containing hot chocolate in your hand, thermal energy:

• does not flow.

• flows from the air to the hot chocolate.

• flows from the hot chocolate to your hand.

• flows from your hand to the hot chocolate.

When you put ice in a drink to cool it:

• coldness is transferred from the ice to the warmer drink.

• heat is transferred from the warmer drink to the cooler ice.

• heat from the ice is lost to the warmer liquid around it.

• the ice cracks and releases cold air molecules that cool off the drink.

The type of heat transfer called convection happens as a result of:

• electromagnetic waves.

• the direct contact of particles in a substance.

• the actual motion of a fluid in the form of currents.

• All of the above
