FCAT science review Thermodynamics

Heat always moves from:

• Cold to hot sources
• Hot to cold sources
• Heat moves in all directions

Which material will conduct heat the fastest?

• Wood
• Plastic
• Metal
• They are all the same

When ice and liquid water meet, how will the heat transfer?

• The ice will cool the water
• The water will warm the ice
• They both warm up and boil
• The water will freeze

When warm air rises in the atmosphere, it is called:

• Radiation
• Conduction
• Convection
• Insulator

The sun providing heat to the earth is which type of heat?

• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
• Insulator

Which answer has the correct heat transfer and phase changes:

• Ice in a pot on the stove, warms by conduction, the liquid begins to boil through convection, and then evaporates
• Liquid water warms and becomes ice through evaporation, and condenses when it begins a convection current 
• Steam begins to cool, condenses, and freezes when it condenses on the sides of a freezer below 0 degrees Celsius.  
• Both A and C

A metal spoon that warms up very fast when placed in boiling water will also:

• Warm up like a wooden spoon in the boiling water
• Will cool down just as fast when placed in ice
• Melt at the same temperature of the boiling water

Heat the moves a macaroni noodle in a pot of boiling water, is an example of:

• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
• Insulation

Your hand feeling warm when placed above a hot stove is an example of:

• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
• Insulation

Water boiling when placed on a hot stove top is an example of:

• Conduction
• Convection
• Radation
• Insulation
