Activity #7 (transfer of
energy)
KE is transferred from
person rope wood.
Activity #7
(transformation of energy
Because of FRICTION between the
rope and wood, the KE transformed
into heat !!

Phase Change Particle Model
melting vaporization
freezing condensation
Phases of Matter
• Melting – Phase change from solid to liquid.
Increased KE of particles from added energy
• Thermometers measure
temperature…
Absolute Zero K:
Point at which all
motion has
stopped…no energy!!

1. CONDUCTION
2. CONVECTION
3. RADIATION
CONDUCTION
• Process where heat energy is transferred by
physical contact through a substance. Particles of
a substance have to touch each other to pass heat
from warmer to cooler.
Cooler area,
gaining KE…
warming up
Warmer area,
Lots of KE
Collision of
particles
Conductor vs. Insulator
Warm, less
dense air Cool, more dense
rises…cools air falls…warms

RADIATION
• Energy that travels through the emptiness of
space…does not need particles to transfer
(medium). Travels by electromagnetic
waves away from a heat source.
Investigation #11
Conduction
• Purpose / Question:
– To observe how HEAT energy moves
by conduction.
metal or plastic
– Why?
• Hypothesis:
– Rods with more mass will (allow / not
allow) heat to transfer well.
Metal
Rod
• 3. Take one rod (save glass rod for
last) and line it up on template.
• 4. Using the marker, place a line where
the 3 globs of wax will be resting &
flame line.
– Flame line = 3inches from edge.
– Wax 1 = 2 inches from edge.
– Wax 2 = 1 inch from edge.
– Wax 3 = very edge of rod.
FLAME Wax 1 Wax 2 Wax 3
ROD
• 5. Light big candle and allow wax to
run off and drip onto the designated 3
areas for wax globs (edge, 1in., and 2
in.)
• 6. Use the clothes pins to suspend the
bar above the surface.
• 7. stack 2 blocks & place a lit candle
directly under the inner-most marked
line on bar.
• 8. Once flame hits the bar, start timing.
• 9. You are looking for how long it takes
each glob of wax to start melting.
• 10. Write observation times in data
table.
