Study Jams - Heat

What is heat?

• temperature
• thermal energy
• electricity
• electromagnetic energy

Which of the following explains the process of radiation?

• when heat gets transferred through objects that are touching
• when the measurement of heat in the atmosphere goes down
• when heat gets transferred through electromagnetic waves that move through space
• when heat gets transferred through a liquid or a gas

How does heat transfer through conduction?

• from the warm object to the cool object
• from the cool object to the warm object
• from the warm object into the air
• from the air to the cool object

What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator?

• A conductor can get heat transfer that convection and conduction, an insulator can only get heat from radiation
• A conductor lets heat pass through it easily, and an insulator does not let heat pass through it easily
• A conductor can only get heat transfer through conduction, and an insulator can only get heat transfer through radiation
• A conductor is unaffected by heat, and an insulator is extremely affected by heat

Why does the water in a swimming pool stay cool on a hot, sunny day?

• because radiation has no effect on water
• because of convection
• because the pool is a good insulator
• because the Sun's rays are reflected off of the pool's surface

Which method of heat transfer is the transfer of heat through a liquid or a gas?

• convection
• reflection
• conduction
• radiation

Which two forms of heat transfer work together to heat water in a plastic bottle?

• radiation and convection
• conduction and convection
• radiation and reflection
• convection and reflection
