Integrated Sciences Quiz - Chp. 10, Section 1 Flashcards |
cut apart and study
|
|
What increases when the kinetic energy of an object increases?
|
TEMPERATURE
|
|
Explain what TEMPERATURE measures?
|
it measures the average kinetic energy of all the particles within an object
|
|
How would you compare a solid and a gas, with the movement of particles?
|
The particles in a solid will move much slower than the particles in a gas. The particles in a gas will move quickly.
|
|
What does ABSOLUTE ZERO mean?
|
it is the lowest temperature possible
|
|
What is another measurement for the lowest possible temperature?
|
0 KELVIN
|
|
Give an explanation of HEAT?
|
it is the transfer of energy between the particles of 2 objects due to a temperature difference between the 2 objects.
|
|
What type of temperature scale is used to measure a very low temperature?
|
KELVIN
|
|
Explain the transfer of energy that occurs when a person holds a mug of hot chocolate in your cold hand.
|
The temperature of the mug will DECREASE as the energy is transferred to the hand, the temperature of your hand will increase due to energy transfer
|
|
You need to learn how to convert both FAHRENHEIT and KELVIN temperatures.
|
a hot summer day (102 C)
|
|
convert to both FAHRENHEIT and KELVIN
|
melting point of silver (950 C)
|
|
convert to both CELSIUS and FAHRENHEIT
|
a temperature measured in KELVINS at (362 K)
|
|
convert to both CELSIUS and FAHRENHEIT
|
a temperature measured in FAHRENHEIT (82 F)
