What are the three states of matter?
Solid, liquid and gas
What doe we call these : Solid, liquid and gas
The three states of matter
Changes of state:
There are six changes of state
What do we call it when a gas becomes a liquid?
Condensation

State of matter
How do the melting and boiling points tell you about the state of matter?
Below the melting point it is solid (like ice)
Between melting and boiling point it is liquid (like water)
Above boiling point is is gas (like steam)
How is heat transfered by radiation?
Hot objects radiate heat as infrared rays - this is called radiation
Radiation is a W—-, a form of energy much like light.
Wave
Can radiation travel through a vacuum
Yes
What radiates fastest, hotter or cooler objects?
Objects that are hotter radiate faster
What is the difference for radiation between Matt lack surfaces and shiny surfaces?
Matt black surfaces radiate heat radiation well - they cool quickly
Shiny silvery surfaces are poor radiators of heat - cool slowly
What type of surface radiates well and cools quickly?
A Matt black surface
What kind of surface radiates poorly and cools slowly?
Shiny silvery surfaces
What type of surface reflects nearly all the heat radiation falling on them?
Shiny silvery surfaces
What type of surface absorbs nearly all the heat radiation falling on it ?
Matt black
