Sixth Grade Unit Four

What is tempature?

• A measure of the average kinetic energy (the average motion) of particles of a substance.

• The measure of how hot or cold something is depending on how it feels.

• How to tell the difference between something hot or cold without using any instruments.

• I don't know

What is heat?

• Thermal energy that is transferred from matter at a high temperature to matter at a low temperature.

• Something that is warm or hot depending on the object.

• A measure of the average kinetic energy (the average motion) of particles of a substance.

• I don't know

What is thermal energy (heat)?

• Thermal energy that is transferred from matter at a high temperature to matter at a low temperature.

• The TOTAL energy of motion in the particles of a substance.

• Heat energy

• I don't know

What is the three methods of heat transfer?

• Conduction, convection, and raditation

• Convection, condensation, and radiation

• Precipitation, condensation, and evaporation

• I don't know

What is conduction?

• Form of heat transfer where heat energy is directly transferred between molecules through direct contact (molecule to molecule TOUCHING).

• Process of heat transfer by which, in a fluid (air or liquid) being heated, the warmer (less dense) part will rise and the cooler (more dense) portions will sink.

• The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves (such as light and microwaves).

• I don't know

What is convection?

• The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves (such as light and microwaves).

• Process of heat transfer by which, in a fluid (air or liquid) being heated, the warmer (less dense) part will rise and the cooler (more dense) portions will sink.

• Form of heat transfer where heat energy is directly transferred between molecules through direct contact (molecule to molecule TOUCHING).

What is radiation?

• Form of heat transfer where heat energy is directly transferred between molecules through direct contact (molecule to molecule TOUCHING).

• Process of heat transfer by which, in a fluid (air or liquid) being heated, the warmer (less dense) part will rise and the cooler (more dense) portions will sink.

• The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves (such as light and microwaves).

• I don't know

What is an insulator?

• A material that does not allow heat or electrons to move through it easily.

• A material that allows heat and electricity to pass through it.

• I don't know

What is a conductor?

• A material that allows heat and electricity to pass through it.

• A material that does not allow heat or electrons to move through it easily.

• I don't know

What does bio mean?

• Life

• Ground

• Stone

• Air
