41 Terms

1

how hot or how cold an object feels

temperature

New cards
2

measures the speed of the molecules

temperature

New cards
3

exchange of energy is the definition of

heat

New cards
4

when two objects with different initial temperature reach……..their final temperature will be the same

thermal equilibrium

New cards
5

an instrument that measures and define temperature (speed of the molecules)

thermometer

New cards
6

in a common thermometer the physical property is the change in the

volume of liquid

New cards
7

the thermometer used to be called ……… because there are 100 gradations between the ice and the stem point of water

centigrade scale

New cards
8

freezing point and boiling point in C degree

0, 100

New cards
9

freezing point and boiling point in F degree

32, 212

New cards
10

freezing point and boiling point in K degree

+273, +373

New cards
11

another name for the Kelvin temperature scale is

absolute Temperature scale

New cards
12

the extrapolated temperature in Kelvin scale is

a temperature in which a gas would exert no pressure p = 0

New cards
13

Kelvin scale extrapolated temperature equals

0K

New cards
14

tendency of matter to change in length or volume in response to a change of temperature is

thermal expansion

New cards
15

limited in size and only occurs within limited temperature ranges is

thermal expansion

New cards
16

the change of length for example a rod is called

linear thermal expansion

New cards
17

types of thermal expansion

linear, volumetric

New cards
18

coefficient of volume expansion is…….. and the coefficient of linear expansion is……..

Beta, Alpha

New cards
19

Beta =

3 Alpha

New cards
20

if an object has a hole, the hole ……. with the object it doesn’t ………

expands, shrink

New cards
21

the sum of the potential energy is the

internal energy

New cards
22

due to energy stored in bonds and intermolecular forces between particles and kinetic energy of the molecules in a system

Internal Energy

New cards
23

energy that transfers due to a temperature difference is called (exchange of energy between two object that have different temperatures)

thermal energy (Heat) Q

New cards
24

Unit of Heat (thermal energy) Q is

joule or calorie (cal)

New cards
25

1 cal is equivalent to ……. joules

4.18

New cards
26

the energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by 1K is called

thermal capacity (C)

New cards
27

Thermal capacity (C) unit is

cal / C of J/K

New cards
28

sand has a low thermal capacity because

it takes gets hot fast in the summer

New cards
29

Phases (states of matter) are

solid, liquid, gas

New cards
30

a transition from one phase to another

phase change

New cards
31

during a phase change what happens to the temperature?

doesn’t change

New cards
32

latent heat (L) is

the amount of heat needed to change from one phase to another without a change in temperature

New cards
33

The amount of heat needed to change the state of matter from solid to liquid without a change in temperature

Latent Heat of Fusion

New cards
34

The amount of heat needed to change the state of matter from liquid to gas without a change in temperature

latent heat of vaporization

New cards
35

When energy flows from higher temperature objects to lower temperature objects

Heat transfer

New cards
36

Conduction, conviction, radiation

Mechanism of heat transfer

New cards
37

Occurs within a body or between two objects in contact

Conduction

New cards
38

Depends on motion of mass from one space to another

Convection

New cards
39

Hear transferred by electromagnetic radiation, such as sunshine (light, infrared) with no need for matter to be present in space between objects

Radiation

New cards
40

The strongest emission comes from the ……… areas

Warmest

New cards
41

States that the object will approach the same temperature, and in the absence or loss to other objects, they will maintain constant temperature

The law of thermal equilibrium
