Thermal Energy

What  is the formula to calculate heat energy required to raise the temperature of any substance?

• Q=mc∆t
• Q=mc
• Q= ½mv
• m=QC

The way the heat is moving from the hot coffee is called...

• convection
• radiation
• insulation
• conduction

Which of the following is an example of conduction?

• Solar energy warming a room.
• Heat rising from the coils of a stove.
• Hot air drying a wet towel.
• Heat moving from a clothes iron to a shirt.

Conduction can only occur between two objects when –

• one object is less dense than the other.
• both objects are in physical contact with each other.
• one of the objects is made of a metal.
• both objects are exactly the same temperature.
