In which direction does heat flow spontaneously?
Define TEMPERATURE
How is THERMAL ENERGY transferred?
What are the factors that determine the THERMAL
ENERGY of a material?
Which type of material heats more, one with a high specific
heat, or one with a low specific heat?
Is WORK 100% efficient? How do you know?
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER
 Work and Heat- work is never 100% efficient. Some
is always lost to heat.
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER
 Heat- the transfer of thermal energy from one object
to another because of a temperature difference.
In what direction does heat flow spontaneously?
FROM HOT to COLD
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER
 Temperature = measure of how hot or cold something
is compared to a reference point.
Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the particles
in an object.
In the image below, where is average kinetic energy
greater?
Higher temperature 
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER
 Thermal energy- total potential and kinetic energy in
an object. It depends on mass, temperature, and phase
of an object.
If both objects are in the same phase & at the same temperature,
which one has MORE thermal energy?
 Because there
are MORE
particles moving
around.
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER
 Specific Heat – amount of heat needed to raise ONE
gram of a material ONE degree Celsius.
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER
 The LOWER a material’s specific heat the MORE its
temperature rises when energy is added.
Which will heat faster (has the lower specific heat)?
Water?
Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g°C
Or Lead?
YES!
Specific heat of lead = 0.46J/g°C
Heat Transfer:
 3 methods of heat transfer:
 conduction, convection, and radiation.
Crust forming on the surface of lava is an example of a
change of state by transferring heat from the hot lava to
the10 cooler air surrounding the lava.
HEAT TRANSFER
 What type of HEAT TRANSFER is occurring in the
pictures? Conduction, convection or radiation?
CONDUCTION –
The transfer of thermal energy with no transfer of
matter. Must be Touching!
HEAT TRANSFER
 What type of HEAT TRANSFER is occurring in the
pictures? Conduction, convection or radiation?
CONVECTION –
The transfer of thermal energy when particles of a liquid
or gas move from one place to another
HEAT TRANSFER
CONVECTION – in the earth and sun
HEAT TRANSFER
 What type of HEAT TRANSFER is occurring in the
pictures? Conduction, convection or radiation?
RADIATION –
The transfer of thermal energy by waves moving
through space. ALL OBJECTS radiate energy!
THERMAL ENERGY & MATTER: Journal
Define Convection, Conduction and
Radiation
2. Give an example of each.
3. Write a sentence describing how each is
important to our everyday lives.
4. How do we use heat in our everyday lives?

Methods of Heat Transfer
Convection: Heat
transferred by the
motion of a
substance
Conduction:
Heat
transferred
by touching
19
Radiation: Heat
transferred
through as waves
through space
