Question | Answer |
---|---|
A material that reduces the flow of heat by conduction, convection, and radiation | insulator |
what are good conductors of heat | metal |
the transfer of energy that does NOT require matter is | radiation |
energy travels from the sun to earth as | radiant energy |
the inside surface of the glass inside a vaccum bottle is coated with alluminum to prevent heat loss by | radiation |
large tank for storing water heated by the sun and pumps to move water | forced air |
the sum of the kinetic and potiental energy of all the particles in an object are | thermal energy |
the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object | temprature |
the transfer of thermal energy in a fluid by the movement from place to place | convection |
the transfer of thermal energy by cloisions between particles | conduction |
the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves | radiation |
a material in which heat flows slowly | insulator |
active solar heating systems use this | solar collectors |
thermal energy,heat,and work are related, and the study of the relationship between them is... | thermodynamics |
the increase in thermal energy of a system equals the work done on the system equals the work done on the system plus the heat transfered to the system | first law of thermodynamics |
that its possible for heat to flow from a cool object to a warmer object unless work is done | second law of thermodynamics |
a device that converts heat into work | heat engine |
the heat engine in a car | internal combustion engine |
thermal energy that flows from something at a higher temprature to something at a lower temprature | heat |
the amount of heat that is needed to raise the temprature | specific heat |
