Physics P1 - Energy Transfer by Heating
  1. infrared Radiationi
    1. Form of electromagnetic wave
      1. Emitted by all objects
        1. Detected as heat
        2. Surfaces and Radiation
          1. Black matt surfaces both emit and absorb IR the best
            1. White shiny surfaces are the worst absorbers and emitters of IR
            2. States of Matter
              1. Solid
                1. Particles in uniform format, vibrating in a fixed position
                2. Liquid
                  1. Particles move about at random
                    1. Still in contact with each other
                    2. Gas
                      1. Move about randomly with high kinetic energy
                        1. Particles much further apart and not in contact
                      2. Conduction
                        1. Conduction in Metals
                          1. Metals are best conductors
                            1. Delocalised free electrons transfer vibration down the material by colluding with the other particles
                            2. Insulator- Poor conductor
                              1. Particles near the heat source gain kinetic energy and vibrate more. This movement is passed on to neighbouring particles
                              2. Convection
                                1. Occurs in fluids
                                  1. Heating causes the fluid to become less dense, therefore it rises and is replaced by the cooler particles
                                    1. Causes convection currrent
                                  2. Evaporation and Condesation
                                    1. Evaporation
                                      1. When a liquid turns into a gas
                                        1. Particles with the highest kinetic energy escape, taking energy with it, causing cooling
                                          1. Rate increased by
                                            1. Increasing surface area of liquid
                                              1. increasing temperature of liquid
                                                1. Draught across surface
                                              2. Condensation
                                                1. When gas turns to liquid
                                                  1. Rate increased by
                                                    1. Increasing surface area
                                                      1. Reducing surface temperature
                                                  2. Energy Transfer by Design
                                                    1. Heat goes from hot to cold
                                                      1. Greater the temperature difference between object and surroundings, wuicker energy is transfered
                                                      2. Maximise transfer
                                                        1. Use good conductors
