1

Which state does conduction occur in?

1

Do black, matt objects absorb better than light, shiny objects?

1

Condensation is faster if...?

1

Non-metals conduct better than metals?

2

In evaporation what happens to the overall energy and speed of the particles?

1

Evaporation is the change of state from a liquid to gas?

1

In a vacuum flask, which two features are used to prevent conduction?

1

In a cold climate, do animals have large ears or small ears to prevent heat loss?

1

If the intial cost of loft insulation is £100 and the annual saving is £20, how many years will the payback time take?

1

U-Values show how slow heat transfers through a material

1

Which two methods of insulation reduce heat transfer by conduction and convection

1

The principal of conservation of energy means that energy cannot be created or destroyed.

1

What is the efficiency of an energy-saving lightbulb that converts 60J of energy into 40J of light energy

1

Carbon dioxide can be 'captured' before it is released from burning fossil fuels and pumped into oil and gas fields beneath the sea.

1

What do transformers do when transferring electricity from the National Grid to consumers?

1

What two ways provide energy during peak demands of electricity?

1

Underground cables have a higher set-up cost than overhead cables but are less reliable and harder to access.

1

What is the order of the Electromagnetic spectrum?

1

All waves travel at the same speed through a vacuum

1

Transverse waves are?

1

Longitudinal waves show areas of compression and rarefraction?

1

What is the formula for wave speed?

1

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection?

1

When waves diffract,, how big will the diffraction be if the gap is slightly wider than the wavelength?

1

Waves only defract if they meet a new medium at an angle

1

If a wave is travelling along the normal, the speed changes and the wave is defracted.
