Notes”
Students will be familiar with the forms and
transformations of energy.
Elements of Standard S8P2
a. Explain energy transformation in terms of the Law of
Conservation of Energy.
b. Explain the relationship between potential and kinetic energy.
c. Compare and contrast the different forms of energy (heat, light,
electricity, mechanical motion, and sound) and their characteristics.
d. Describe how heat can be transferred through matter by the
collisions of atoms (conduction) or through space (radiation). In a
liquid or gas, currents will facilitate the transfer of heat (convection).
Essential Question
• What are the three methods by which
thermal energy is moved from place to
place?
Thermal Energy
• Thermal Energy - All matter is made up
of constantly moving particles. All
moving things possess kinetic energy.
– Kinetic energy – vibrations and movement
within and between particles
– Potential energy – forces that act within or
between the particles (bonds)
Thermal Energy
• As the particles in a sample move faster
and faster, the kinetic energy becomes
greater and the temperature of the object
rises.
• Temperature is a measure of the average
kinetic energy of the particles in a sample
of matter.
Thermal Energy
• Thermal energy is the total energy of the
particles in a material.
• Temperature is measured with a
thermometer.
Thermal energy depends on:
1.Mass – the greater the mass, the larger the
number of moving particles
2.Temperature – the higher the temperature, the
faster the particles are moving
3.
Example – Temperature as a factor
Heat is the thermal energy that flows from
something with a higher temperature to
something with a lower temperature. In
most cases, heat flows from warmer to
cooler materials.
Example –Mass as a factor
• However, mass will compound the effect.
REMEMBER…
Thermal energy travels as heat from a
material of higher temperature to a
material of lower temperature. Thermal
energy will flow from warmer objects to
cooler ones until the temperature equalizes.
Heat Transfer
• Heat always moves from a warmer place to
a cooler place.
• Hot objects in a cooler room will cool to
room temperature. EQUALIZE
• Cold objects in a warmer room will heat up
to room temperature. EQUALIZE
Question
• If a cup of coffee and a red popsickle were
left on the table in this room what would
happen to them? Why?
• The cup of coffee will cool until it reaches
room temperature. The popsickle will melt
and then the liquid will warm to room
temperature.
Heat Transfer Methods
• Heat transfers in three ways:
– Conduction
– Convection
– Radiation
Conduction
When you heat a metal strip at one end, the heat
travels to the other end.
As you heat the metal, the particles vibrate, these
vibrations make the adjacent particles vibrate, and so on
and so on, the vibrations are passed along the metal and
so is the heat. We call this? Conduction
Conduction
Method #1 Conduction – transfer of
thermal energy through matter by
direct contact of particles
Transfer by Collisions
Conduction can take place in solids,
liquids and gases.
Matter must be present for conduction to
take place!
Conduction - Examples
* Heating a pan on a stove (pan heats up by conduction)
* Place a spoon in a bowl of soup (spoon heats up by
conduction)
Why does metal feel colder than wood, if they
are both at the same temperature?
Metal is a conductor, wood is an insulator. Metal
conducts the heat away from your hands. Wood
does not conduct the heat away from your hands as
well as the metal, so the wood feels warmer than
the metal.
Convection
What happens to the particles in a liquid or a
gas when you heat them?
The particles spread out and
become less dense.
This effects fluid movement.
What is a fluid?
A liquid or gas.
Convection
Method #2 Convection – transfer of thermal
energy by bulk movement of matter
Transfer by currents
.
Fluid movement
Convection can take
place in fluids
(materials that flow).
Liquids and gases are
fluids.
Currents carry less
dense, warmer material
up while cooler, denser
material sinks.
Examples: Ocean
Currents, boiling water
Water movement
Cools at the
surface
Cooler
water sinks
Convection
current
Hot water
rises
Why is it windy at the seaside?
Cold air sinks
Where is the
freezer
compartment
put in a fridge?
It is put at the
top, because
cool air sinks,
so it cools the
food on the
way down.
Freezer
compartment
It is warmer
at the
bottom, so
this warmer
air rises and
a convection
current is
set up.
Matter must be
present for
convection to take
place!
The third method of heat transfer
How does heat energy get
from the Sun to the Earth?
?
There are no particles
between the Sun and the
Earth so it CANNOT
travel by conduction or
by convection.
RADIATION
Radiation
Method #3 Radiation – the transfer of
energy by electromagnetic waves, such
as visible light and infrared
Transfer by Waves
Energy that travels by radiation is often called
radiant energy. Electromagnetic energy
must be converted or transformed into
thermal energy. Only radiant energy that is
absorbed can be converted into thermal
energy.
Radiation
Examples: Sun heating the Earth,
Microwave heating food, sun’s
energy heating a sidewalk
Radiation

The _________
the poorest at __________

Convection questions
Why does hot air rise and cold air sink?
Cool air is more dense than warm air, so the
cool air ‘falls through’ the warm air.
Why are boilers placed beneath hot water
tanks in people’s homes?
Hot water rises.
So when the boiler heats the water, and the hot water
rises, the water tank is filled with hot water.
Radiation questions
Why are houses painted white in hot countries?
White reflects heat radiation and keeps the house cooler.
Why are shiny foil blankets wrapped around marathon
runners at the end of a race?
The shiny metal reflects the heat radiation from the runner
back in, this stops the runner getting cold.
