Sience Flashcards
Explain why we were trying to find out by testing the temperature of the washers in room temperature water
Find out if changing the (mass) number of washer will affect the temperature of the water
What was the independent variable in the lab?
Mass of the washer (amount of washers)
What was the dependent variable in the lab?
Temperature of the water
What did we keep constant (the same in this experiment)?
Same type,of metal, same cup same room temp water
What was the result in our lab? What did our data prove about the mass and heat transfer?
The more mass (# of washers), the more the water temp changed
Identify an item that is a good conductor of heat.🪵🗒️
Wood/paper, plastic, fabric
Conduction
Conduction is heat transfer by touching another object
Convection(🥵,🥶🛳️🧊
Convection is heat transferred by heat rising and cold, sinking (in air or water)
Radiation☀️
Radiation is heat transferred by the sun (moving through empty space)
