Heat Transfer Refrigerator Freezer

Robert makes a glass of tea and takes it outside with him. While outside, the thermal energy within the glass of tea is transferred to its surroundings. Based on this information, what else is happening within the glass of tea?

• The kinetic energy of the particles is decreasing and the temperature is increasing.

• The kinetic energy of the particles is increasing and the temperature is increasing.

• The kinetic energy of the particles is decreasing and the temperature is decreasing.

• The kinetic energy of the particles is increasing and the temperature is decreasing.

Brent and Carry know that materials that conduct heat well tend to warm up quickly. They set up an experiment to compare how well four different materials conduct heat. They place a sample of each material on a hot plate and put a piece of wax on top, as shown below.

• Sample 2 will heat up the slowest, causing its wax to melt first.

• Sample 3 will heat up the fastest, causing its wax to melt last.

• Sample 4 will heat up the fastest, causing its wax to melt first.

• Sample 1 will heat up the slowest, causing its wax to melt first.

A student wants to measure the temperature change of water after adding 5 cm³ of ice to container 1 and 10 cm³ of ice to container 2. The image below shows the experiment immediately after adding the ice.

• The temperature should drop more in container 2 because more heat will flow from the water to the ice.

• The temperature should drop more in container 2 because the system gains more thermal energy.

• The temperature should drop more in container 1 because more heat will flow from the ice to the water.

• The temperature should drop more in container 1 because the ice melts more quickly.
