Energy Transfer by Heating
- Infrared Radiation
- all objects emit infrared radiation
- can travel through vacumes
- part of the electromagnetic spectrum
- it is just beyond visible red light
- Surfaces and Radiation
- dark matt surfaces are good absorbers of infrared radiation
- they are also good emitters of infrared radiation
- light shiny surfaces are good reflectors of infrared radiation
- States of Matter
- there are 3 different states
- Solid, liquid, gas
- Solid particles are close together vibrating on the spot
- Gas particles are spread out and have a high mount of energy
- Liquids are free to move to fill spaces and have more energy than solids as they move over each other
- Conduction
- mainly occurs in solids
- most liquids and all gases are poor conductors
- due to conduction heat and travel from one end of a solid to another
- Convection
- Evaporation and Condenstaion
- Energy Transfer by design
- Specific heat capacity
- Heating and insulating buildings
