|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Heat Transfer | This is how heat moves from one place to another. Heat always moves from something hot to something cooler, like when you touch a warm cup and feel the heat in your hand.
🗑
|
||||
| Conduction | The way heat moves through touch, like a spoon getting hot in soup.
🗑
|
||||
| Convection | The way heat moves through liquids and gases, like warm air rising and cool air sinking.
🗑
|
||||
| Radiation | Heat traveling through space, like the Sun warming your face.
🗑
|
||||
| Convection Currents | This happens when warm air or liquid rises, and cooler air or liquid sinks, creating a cycle. It’s like how hot soup moves around in a pot or how wind moves in the atmosphere.
🗑
|
||||
| Electromagnetic Waves | These are invisible waves that carry energy, like sunlight, radio waves, or X-rays. You can feel the heat from the Sun even though there's empty space between the Earth and the Sun because of these waves.
🗑
|
||||
| Radiant Energy | This is energy that travels in waves, like light or heat from the Sun, a fire, or a light bulb. You feel radiant energy when you stand near something warm.
🗑
|
||||
| Greenhouse Gases | Gases like carbon dioxide and methane that trap heat in the atmosphere, keeping Earth warm.
🗑
|
||||
| Atmosphere | The layer of air that surrounds Earth and protects us.
🗑
|
||||
| Troposphere | The lowest layer of the atmosphere, where all weather happens.
🗑
|
||||
| Stratosphere | A layer of the atmosphere where airplanes fly and the ozone layer is found.
🗑
|
||||
| Ozone layer | A part of the atmosphere that protects us from the Sun’s harmful rays.
🗑
|
||||
| Mesosphere | A layer of the atmosphere where meteors burn up, making shooting stars.
🗑
|
||||
| Thermosphere | A very hot layer of the atmosphere where the northern lights happen.
🗑
|
||||
| Exosphere | The very edge of our atmosphere; in this layer the air is extremely thin and separates the rest of the atmosphere from outer space.
🗑
|
||||
| Air Pressure | The weight of the air pushing down on everything.
🗑
