Thermal Energy Review

Thermal energy flows:

• From cold to hot

• From hot to cold

• Towards the sun

• Away from Mr. Wall

In the food coloring lab, the color spread out the most in:

• The hot cup

• The warm cup

• The cold cup

• They were the same

Why did the peppermint melt faster in hot water?

• The hot water was boiling

• The hot water has chemicals in it

• The particles move slower in hot water

• The particles move faster in hot water

A system that allows air inside (two words)

The average kinetic energy of particles in a substance:

• Thermal Energy

• Energy Transfer

• Temperature

• Heat

This experiment showed us when paddles were spinning quickly in a container of water, it warmed up

• Joule's Experiment

• The Water bath lab

• The marble lab

• Food Coloring Lab

When we rolled a marble into another marble, we saw:

• No transfer of energy

• The marbles stopped moving

• The faster marble slowed down and the slow marble got faster

• Sparks

Hot matter has ____ kinetic energy than cold matter

The marbles colliding into a solid wall of a cup showed us:

• Energy does not transfer through a solid wall

• Energy can transfer through a solid wall

• Magnets are strong

• Energy is only transferred through liquids

The simulations of gas particles colliding showed us:

• When particles collide, energy is transferred

• Gas particles are cold

• Kinetic energy does not transfer

• Red particles moved slower than white ones
