2) Your teacher provides you with a cup of water.
a) What can you do to increase the thermal energy of the water? b) What can you do to decrease the thermal energy of the water?
-
3) How can you tell if the thermal energy of a cup of water is increasing or
decreasing?
Unit 2: Thermal energy transfer
Lesson 2
-
1) Your teacher brings a cup of hot water to your classroom and places a
thermometer in the hot water. For the rest of the classroom period, you observe
the temperature of the water decreasing.
-
a) Why did the temperature of the water decrease?
(Include the following terms in your answer: thermal energy, transfer, temperature of classroom)
0
-
b) If the temperature of the classroom is 72 F, what do you expect the final
temperature of the water to be after several hours? Explain.
-
a) Why did the temperature of the water decrease?
-
2) Your teacher brings a cup of cold water to your classroom and places a
thermometer in the cold water. For the rest of the classroom period, you observe
the temperature of the water increasing.
-
a) Why did the temperature of the water increase?
(Include the following terms in your answer: thermal energy, transfer, temperature of classroom)
-
b) If the temperature of the classroom is 720 F, what do you expect the final
temperature of the water to be after several hours? Explain.
-
a) Why did the temperature of the water increase?
-
3) A true story: A friend and I went for a hike on a cold winter day in snowy
Montreal. My friend carried her one year old baby on her back. After one hour we
sat on a bench for a break. My friend took out a bottle filled with milk from her
bag to feed her baby, but the milk was too cold for the baby to drink.
-
a) How do you think my friend warmed up the milk for her baby?
(Hint: Her bag contained some useful things!)
-
b) Use the following terms to explain why the milk warmed up: thermal
energy, transfer, temperature
-

(Hint: Her bag contained some useful things!)
Lesson 3
-
1) Why it is preferable to mix a pot of hot soup with a wooden spoon rather than
with a metal spoon?
Include the following terms in your answer: thermal energy, temperature
-
2) What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator?
-
3) Provide an example of a conductor.
-
4) Provide an example of an insulator.
-
5) In the lesson, Evan conducts an investigation to determine the best material for
keeping a drink cold for as long as possible.
a) What material do you think would work best for keeping a drink cold? Discuss your choice.
b) Would the thickness of the chosen material affect the rate by which the drink would warm up?
-
6) Research and explain how a solar cooker can be used to heat food.
Lesson 4
1) A student uses a thermometer to measure different objects in her classroom. She
finds that all of the objects in the classroom are at the same temperature.

-
a) Explain why all of the objects are at the same temperature.
-
b) The student touches the metal legs of a desk. The metal legs feel cold.
The student then touches the wooden top of a desk. The wood feels much
warmer than the metal legs.
Explain why the metal legs feel colder than the wooden top?
