TOPIC : Heat AIM : What is heat & how is it measured?. What you will learn: Define temp. Explain how thermal energy and temp are related. Calculate the change in thermal energy of an object due to temp change. Why is it important:
E N D
What you will learn: • Define temp. • Explain how thermal energy and temp are related. • Calculate the change in thermal energy of an object due to temp change.
Why is it important: Cars, buses, trucks and airplanes could not operate without thermal energy. • What is kinetic energy? • Review vocab: • Kinetic energy: energy an object has due to motion
New Vocab • Kinetic theory • Kelvin • Temp • Thermal energy • Heat • Specific heat
Kinetic Theory of Matter Matter is made of molecules that are always in motion which collide & transfer their Kinetic Energy
Molecules are always moving which produces heat • The more heat that is contained the • faster the molecules move
Molecules Tiny particles that make up matter
Example: 1 molecule of water = H2O 5 molecules of water
What is heat? Energy caused by internal motion of molecules Energy moves from warm cooler region
Temperature Measure of how hot or cold something is Measure of average KE of molecules
If heat is added to an object the molecules move ________, which _________ the Kinetic Energy, which causes the temperature to _________. Analyzing relationships faster increases increase
Low temp = slower moving • High temp = fast moving
The average kinetic energy of the particles in the soup is greater than the average kinetic energy of the particles in the ice cream.
70°F 70°F The pail of water has fewer molecules in it than the ocean does. Even though they may be the same temperature, the pail of water has less heat than the ocean.
Thermometer For measuring temperature Tube filled with a fluid such as mercury
Heated molecules move faster and far apart • Mercury expands & rises up tube
Cooled molecules slow & move closer together • Mercury contracts and drops
Heated Liquid level rises Cooled Liquid level drops
Fahrenheit Scale Non-metric temp scale °F
Water freezes = 32°F Water boils = 212°F Human body temp = 98.6°F
Celsius Scale Metric scale °C
Water freezes = 0°C Water boils = 100°C Human body temp = 37°C
Kelvin scale Metric scale Units = Kelvins (K)
Absolute Zero = 0K (coldest temp = when molecules stop moving)
Conversions °C K Celsius + 273K
K °C Kelvin - 273
Example: 56°C = ? K 56 + 273 = 329K
Example 400K ? °C 400 – 273 = 127 °C
Changing Temp Increasing heat ADDED Decreasing heat being REMOVED
How is heat measured? CALORIES unit of heat 1 calorie = 4.184 J Amount of heat needed to raise the temp of 1g of water 1°C
Your body uses the calories in food for heat and energy. Some foods contain more calories than others, and therefore provide your body with a concentration of energy. Foods that are high in calories contain large amounts of chemical energy, often more than your body can properly break down and use. What's left over is often stored as fat. That's why people on diets avoid foods that are high in calories.
Thermal Expansion Expansion (increase in size) of a substance caused by heat Temp increases molecules move faster & farther apart
Examples: • 1. The rising of mercury/ alcohol in a thermometer
2. • Hot air balloons rise because heated air expands
When both ball and ring are at room temperature, the ball fits through the ring. When the ball is heated, it no longer fits due to thermal expansion.
Spaces between the joints allow the metals in the bridge to expand.
