 If a cup of hot coffee and an ice cube were left

on the table in this room what would happen


to them? Why?
 The cup of coffee will cool until it reaches
room temperature. The ice cube will melt and
then the liquid will cool to room temperature.
 Heat always moves from a warmer place to a
cooler place.
 Hot objects in a cooler room will cool to room
temperature.
 Cold objects in a warmer room will heat up to
room temperature.
 These are:
 Conduction
 Convection
 Radiation
When you heat a metal strip at one end, the heat
travels to the other end.

As you heat the metal, the particles vibrate, these


vibrations make the adjacent particles vibrate, and so on
and so on, the vibrations are passed along the metal and
so is the heat. We call this? Conduction
 Conduction is the process
of heat transfer through a
medium or material
without any movement of
the medium or material

6
Metal is a conductor, wood is an insulator. The
metal conducts the heat away from your hands, the
wood does not conduct the heat away from your
hands as well as the metal, so the wood feels
warmer than the metal.
 Some materials conduct heat more rapidly
than others
 Such materials are called thermal
conductors
 Most metals are good thermal conductors

 Poor heat conductors are called insulators
 They conduct heat much more slowly

Examples :
wood, rubber, asbestos,
plastic, glass, water and air

 Thermal conductors:
We use metals to make
cooking utensils so that
the food inside cooks or
heats up quickly.

13
 Boilers in a factory or
power station have to
rapidly convert heat to
steam.

14
 Radiators have to
conduct heat from a hot
source before they can
warm the air around
them.

15
 Thermal insulators:
Thermal insulators are good at keeping heat out AND
keeping heat in.

Your winter scarf is a thermal insulator.

It prevents the heat from


your body from escaping
into the cold air.

16
 Handles of cooking utensils
 Walls of buildings

Definition!

 Convection is the transfer of heat


from one place to another by the
movement of currents in liquids or
gases

As air is heated up on the road, it rises and cool air
replaces the warm air. This sets up a convection current.

 Radiation is the transfer

to another without a
medium.

How does heat from the Sun reach the

 Sunlight is radiated through space to our
planet in the absence of matter.
 The sun transfers heat through millions of
kilometres of space.

 How does the design of the spacesuit help
astronaut survive in outer space?

45
Which features of these buildings help keep the heat out?

46
Why does hot air rise and cold air sink?
Cool air is more dense than warm air, so the
cool air ‘falls through’ the warm air.

Why are boilers placed beneath hot water


tanks in people’s homes?

Hot water rises.


So when the boiler heats the water, and the hot water
rises, the water tank is filled with hot water.
Why are houses painted white in hot countries?

White reflects heat radiation and keeps the house cooler.

Why are shiny foil blankets wrapped around marathon


runners at the end of a race?

The shiny metal reflects the heat radiation from the runner
back in, this stops the runner getting cold.
