Heat and Temperature
Energy is transferred from a hotter to a colder body.
Temperature is a measure of HOTNESS on an arbitrary scale, measured in DEGREES CENTIGRADE.
Energy is a measure of ENERGY TRANSFER on an absolute scale, measures in JOULES.
Energy is transferred when a substance changes temperature.
The amount of energy transferred depends on the mass and the specific latent heat.
Energy transferred = mass x specific latent heat
The amount of energy transferred depends on the mass, temperature change and specific heat capacity.
energy transferred = mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change
Energy Transfer
Air is a good insulator and reduces energy transfer by conduction
Conduction in a solid is by the transfer of kinetic energy
Trapped air reduces energy transfer by convection
Convection currents are caused by changes in density
Energy saving in the home can be achieved by:
Double glazing
Cavity wall insulation
Draught excluders
Reflecting foil
Loft insulation
Curtains
Careful design
Shiny surfaces reflect infrared radiation to reduce energy transfer
Energy transformations can be represented by diagrams
Efficiency = useful energy output (x100%) / total energy input
Waves Transfer Energy
Warm and hot objects emit infrared radiation
Infrared radiation is used for cooking
Microwaves can be used for cooking and communication when transmitter and receiver are in line of sight
Laser light is single colour and in phase
Laser light, visible light and infrared are all used to send signals along optical fibres by total internal reflection
Digital and analogue signals are used for communication
Morse is a digital code
Digital signals allow many signals to be transmitted at the same time
Digital signals are clearer
Radio waves are used for communication
Longer wavelengths diffract around obsticles
Radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light and ultraviolet are some of the waves in the electromagnetic spectrum
The energy of the wave increases as the wavelength decreases
All electromagnetic waves can be reflected, refracted and diffracted
All waves have amplitude, frequency and wavelength: wave speed = frequency x wavelength
The Stable Earth
Earthquakes can travel through the earth
Different waves help us to find out about the inside of the earth
Exposure to ultraviolet radiation causes sun burn and skin cancer
Sunscreen and sunblock reduces damage caused by ultraviolet radiation
CFCs are causing the ozone layer to become thinner
