- 26. Multiple ChoiceA metal spoon placed in a bowl of hot soup is heated by _____.radiationconductionfrictionconvection
- 27. Multiple ChoiceOn a hot summer day, which shirt would you put on to make sure you stay cool while you are outside playing?A black shirt because it reflects the sun's energy.A white shirt because it reflects the sun's energy.A black shirt because it absorbs the sun's energy.A white shirt because it absorbs the sun's energy.
- 28. Multiple ChoiceWhen holding a cup of ice water, your warm hand becomes cold. How does the heat transfer?From the cold cup to your handFrom the cold cup to the warm airFrom the ice to your handFrom your warm hand to the cold cup.
- 29. Multiple ChoiceJake says his thermometer reads 65 degrees and Jessie says her thermometer says 18 degrees. Their teacher says they are both correct. How is this true?Jake is in a different country than Jessie.The teacher likes Jake better.Jake is using a thermometer that measures heat in degrees Fahrenheit and Jessie's thermometer measures degrees Celsius.Jessie's thermometer is working and Jake's is not working.
- 30. Multiple ChoiceIf you place a cold cup of water in the direct sunlight on a hot day, what change will take place in the thermal energy of the particles that make up the water?The particles will remain the same.The solar energy will cause the particles will slow down because the sun will make the water warmer.The particles will become smaller when the sun's energy heats the water up.The solar energy will cause the water to warm up. This will cause the particles of water to change from moving very slowly-less thermal energy (when cold) to moving quickly as they gain thermal energy (warm up).
- 31. Multiple ChoiceWhy do you want to live in a home with good insulation during the cold winter months?The insulation will keep you cool during winter.If there is good insulation, the thermal energy will not be able to move easily from inside the warm home to the cool areas outside the building.If there is not good insulation, the air inside the home will become too hot.A house with good insulation will keep the warm air in the attic.
- 32. Multiple ChoiceWhen a popsicle melts, the particles _____.gain thermal energy and speed upthere are no particles in popsicleslose thermal energy and slow downstay the same
- 33. Multiple ChoiceHow are heat from the sun and heat from a campfire alike?They move by radiation.They move by convection.They move by conduction.They are solar energy.
