THERMAL ENERGY• James Prescott Joule (1818-1889) spent much of his
honeymoon studying waterfalls.• He noticed that the water at the bottom
of a waterfall had a higher temperature than at the top.
• How might this happen?

THERMAL ENERGY AND HEAT• Thermal energy and heat play significant roles in
our lives from the furnaces that heat our homes to winds generated by the uneven heating of the Earth’s surface. Even most of the food that we consume is converted into thermal energy.

THERMAL ENERGY• The total kinetic energy and potential energy of the
atoms or molecules of a substance. • Depends on: mass, temperature, nature and state
of matter
![Page 5: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
HEAT• A measure of the energy transferred from a warm
body to a cooler body because of a difference in temperature.
![Page 6: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
CALCULATING HEAT• The amount of heat released or gained during a
temperature change can be found from,
• Where,– is the heat in Joules
– is the mass of substance
– is the specific heat capacity J/kgoC
– is the change in temperature
![Page 7: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY• Scientists define specific heat capacity of a
substance as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of that substance by 1 0C.
• These are generally known values for most substances.
![Page 8: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
EXAMPLEA beaker of 250 g of water is heated over a bunsen burner from room temperature (20 0C) to boiling point (100 0C). The heat capacity of water is 4180 J/kg0C. How much heat does the water gain?

TEMPERATURE• A measure of the average kinetic energy of the
atoms or molecules of a substance.
![Page 10: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
HOW HEAT SPREADS FROM ONE REGION TO ANOTHER• All things are made up of molecules• When objects are heated, they absorb thermal
energy.• This means that the molecules are absorbing the
thermal energy.• With more energy, the molecules are able to move
faster.• When the molecules move faster, the temperature
of the object increases.• Temperature increase means the object gets hotter.
![Page 11: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
EXAMPLE 1 • Consider two samples of water: 100 g at 50 °C and
500 g at 50° C

EXAMPLE 1 • The two samples have the same temperature, but
the bigger sample contains more thermal energy because there’s more of it. If the samples were mixed, no heat transfer would occur because they are the same temperature

EXAMPLE 2 • Consider two other samples of water: 500 g at 50°C
and 500 g at 90° C
50° C 90° C 70° C

EXAMPLE 2 • The masses are the same but the warmer sample
has more thermal energy because the water particles have more motion, that is, the average kinetic energy of the molecules is greater at a higher temperature. When the two samples are mixed, heat would transfer from the 90 °C sample to the 50° C.

EXAMPLE (GRADE 11 PHYSICS)A beaker containing 250 g of water at 250C is poured into another beaker that initially contains 350 g of water at 850C. What is the final temperature of the mixed water?

METHODS OF HEAT TRANSFER
![Page 17: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THREE METHODS OF HEAT TRANSFER• Conduction– Process by which the collision of atoms and electrons
transfers heat through a material or between two materials in contact.
• Convection– Process of transferring heat by a circulating path of fluid
particles.
• Radiation– Process in which energy is transferred by means of
electromagnetic waves.
![Page 18: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
CONDUCTION• Collision of atoms and electrons transfers heat• Particles with more kinetic energy transfer some of
their energy to neighbouring particles with lower kinetic energy increases the kinetic energy of the neighbouring particles.
• Occurs mainly in solids• Two types of conduction– Molecular vibration
– Free electron diffusion
Note: Conduction is not the main form of heat transfer in liquids and gases because their molecules are spaced further apart.
![Page 19: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
MOLECULAR VIBRATION
• When heat is supplied to one end, the molecules at the hot end start to vibrate more vigorously.
• In the process, they ‘bump’ into their neighboring molecules. In doing so, some energy is transferred to the neighbour.
• The neighbour molecule gains energy and starts to vibrate more vigorously. The cycle continues.
![Page 20: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
FREE ELECTRON DIFFUSION
• This form of conduction takes place only in metals. As only metals have free electrons.
• The electrons are freed from the molecule when heated and they travel towards the cold end.
• At the cold end they collide into a molecule therefore passing all their energy to the molecule.
![Page 21: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
METHODS OF CONDUCTIONMolecular vibration Free electron diffusion
Occurs in all solids
Slow process
Occurs in metals only
Fast process
This explains why metals heat up faster:
1. Metals have 2 mechanisms of conduction occuring at the same time.
2. In metals, free electron diffusion is the main mechanism, which is faster.
![Page 22: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS• Materials that can conduct heat easily
and readily (eg. Metals) are known as conductors.
• Materials that do not conduct heat easily (eg. Water, air, plastic) are known as insulators.
![Page 23: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CONVECTION• Transferring heat by a circulating path of fluid
particles.• Occurs in liquids and gases• Does not occur in solids because the molecules are
not free to move around
![Page 24: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
EXAMPLETaking the example of heating water• Water at the bottom is heated first• Heated water expands• When water expands density decreases• Heated water of lower density starts to rise• Cooler water of higher density rushes in from sides
to take its place• The cooler water gets heated and the cycle repeats.• Convection currents are set up.
![Page 25: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
CONVECTION• Since Earth’s surface is over 70 percent water,
water has a large effect on Earth’s climate. Therefore, regions closer to large bodies of water tend to experience more moderate weather conditions than regions farther from them.
![Page 26: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
RADIATION• Energy is transferred by means of electromagnetic
waves.• Radiation does not require a medium to transfer
heat. (can occur in a vacuum)• Sun releases electromagnetic waves (heat is
contained in the waves as infra-red)• Hotter objects radiates more heat.
![Page 27: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
RADIATION• Any substance at a higher temperature than its
surroundings will emit radiant energy, usually as infrared radiation. The warmed matter then transfers some of its thermal energy to substances at lower temperatures or re-emits it as IR.
![Page 28: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
EMITTERS AND ABSORBERS• The Sun gives out the heat.–It is known as an emitter / radiator
• The Earth takes in the heat.–It is known as an absorber.

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
Law of Conservation of Energy
When energy changes from one form to another, no energy is created or destroyed.
In ideal situations, no energy is lost to
friction.
In real situations, some energy is needed to overcome friction.
This results in the production of waste thermal energy and, sometimes, sound
energy.

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY (GR. 11)• The amount of heat gained by a cold substance is
equal to the amount of heat lost by a hot substance.

LATENT HEAT AND CHANGES OF STATE
![Page 34: Thermal Energy and Heat](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042617/56814931550346895db6739a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
HEATING/COOLING CURVE• We learned that when you add heat to a substance, the
temperature increases. When you remove heat, the temperature decreases.
• BUT, an interesting thing occurs when an object is undergoing a change of state. During a change of state, the temperature remains constant. The heat being added or removed is going into breaking or creating the bonds between the particles in the different states. If you measured the temperature of a solid substance to the point where it melts to a liquid, then continued heating the liquid until it boiled and turned entirely to a gas, you would get the following graph of temperature versus time.

– Where is the specific latent heat of fusion.
• Latent Heat of Vaporization– The amount of thermal energy absorbed when a substance
evaporates or released when it condenses.
– Where is the specific latent heat of fusion.
