Energy Transfer in Water and Air

The video tutorial demonstrates an experiment to understand how ocean currents affect air temperature. It begins with an introduction to the experiment, followed by a list of materials needed. The setup involves using cups, thermometers, and lids to measure air temperature changes when hot and cold water are added. The experiment is conducted by recording initial and final air temperatures. Results show that air temperature increases with hot water and decreases with cold water, illustrating energy transfer. The tutorial concludes with an explanation of how energy is transferred between water and air in a closed system.

What is the main objective of the water and air temperature experiment?
