    Review for the Thermal energy transfer common assessment
  •   Study   Slideshow
  • In which direction does the transfer of thermal energy move?
    From the hotter object (fire) to the colder object (the pan)
  •  15
  • If there was an arrow showing the thermal energy transfer between the two objects, which direction would it point?
    To the left (from the red cube to the blue cube)
  •  15

  • Which type of thermal energy transfer occurs when heat circulates in air or water (hot rises, cold sinks)?
    convection
  •  15
  • What is an example of convection?
    Answers will vary: lava lamp hot air balloon hot upstairs/cold downstairs pot of macaroni or boiling substance

  • Which type of thermal energy transfer occurs when 2 objects of different temperatures touch?
    conduction
  •  15
  • What is an example of conduction?
    Answers will vary: touching something hot pot on a burner melting ice in your hand
  •  15
  • Which type of thermal energy transfer occurs when heat travel in waves and does NOT touch another object?
    radiation
  •  15
  • What is an example of radiation?
    Answers will vary: sitting by a fire sun heating you up
  •  15
  • Do larger things or smaller things heat up faster?
    smaller things (items with less mass)
