Choose convection, radiation or convection for each scenario.
One heater located in the deep end warms Henry's entire pool.
Harold licks a juice pop that he has just removed from the freezer. The tip of his tongue freezes and sticks to the icy-cold treat.
When Jerald sits near the campfire, her faces feels hot even though her back feels cold.
Why does metal feel colder even though both are at room temperature?
metal in a better conductor than wood
metal in a better radiator than wood
metal in a better convection-er than wood
Why is the end of the spoon in a hot bowl of soup hot, but not as hot as the soup.
It does not have as much energy as the soup. Some energy transfers to the air, other parts of the spoon, and the soup.
It does not has as much energy as the soup. No energy transfers to the air, other parts of the spoon, and the soup.
It does not have as much energy as the soup. Some energy transfers to the chair, other parts of the fork, and the soup.
Which metal conducts the heat the best.
copper
steel
aluminum
brass
What happens to water at the bottom of a hot pot?
It becomes less dense, floats to the top, cools and sinks to the bottom.
It becomes more dense, floats to the bottom, cools and sinks to the top.
It becomes less dense, and sinks to the bottom.
It becomes more dense, floats to the top, cools and sinks to the bottom.
