iClicker Question
Neglecting air resistance, what are the
forces acting on a bullet after it has
left the barrel of a rifle?
A
B
C
D
The force of air acting up and gravity
acting down.
Only the force of gravity acting
straight down.
There are no forces acting at this
point.

All of the above are true.
Question for Thought
A kWhr is
A
B
C
D
a unit of work
a unit of energy
a unit of power
More than one of the above is true.
 A kWhr is a unit of work, and since energy is the
ability to do work, it is also a unit of energy. In
terms of units, a watt is a joule per second, and an
hour, as a second, is a unit of time. The time units
cancel, leaving a unit of a joule, which can be used to
measure either work or energy.

Question for Thought
Which is true about temperature and
heat.
A
Temperature is a measure of the
average kinetic energy of the molecules of a
substance.
B
Heat is the total internal energy of
the molecules involved in an energy
transfer.
C
Both A and B above are true.
D
Neither A nor B above are true.
21
Question for Thought
 As the temperature of a solid increases, the vibrations of
the individual molecules become larger. When these
vibrations become larger, the average distance between
the molecules increases to accommodate these larger
oscillations, and the solid expands. In a liquid or a gas, the
individual molecules move faster as the temperature
increases, and the collisions between individual molecules
become more violent. Since the molecules are moving
faster, they move farther apart as they travel a larger
distance in the time between collisions.
A
This explains why most materials become less
dense as their temperature is increased.
B
This explains why most materials become more
dense as their temperature is increased.
22
Question for Thought
Would the tight packing of more insulation,
such as glass wool, in an enclosed space
increase or decrease the insulation value?
A
B
Increase the insulation value.
Decrease the insulation value.
 Tight packing would tend to decrease the insulation value of
glass wool because it would squeeze the wool together and give
the heat more paths to travel. It is the presence of many small
pockets of air, with unattached molecules, that gives glass wool
and other similar insulation materials their insulating properties.
23
Question for Thought
 A true vacuum bottle has a double-walled, silvered
bottle with the air removed from the space between
the walls. Describe how this design keeps food hot or
cold by dealing with conduction, convection and
radiation.
 The vacuum between the walls prevents heat transfer
by means of convection or conduction, while the
silvered walls reflect radiated energy back into (or
away from) the food, preventing energy transfer by
radiation.
24
Question for Thought
Cooler air is found in low valleys on
calm nights.
A True
B False
 True. Cooler air is denser than warmer air. This
denser air weighs more per volume than the warmer
air and pushes the warmer air out of the way as it
sinks down to its lowest level. The warmer, less
dense air sits on top of the cooler air because it
weighs less per volume.
25
Question for Thought
Is air a good insulator?
A
B
Yes
No
Air is a good insulator because it is not
very dense and conduction is not very
efficient at transferring energy
because the molecules are much farther
apart than they are in solids or liquids.
26
Question for Thought
 Can you explain the meaning of the mechanical
equivalent of heat.
 Mechanical energy can be converted to heat as it
changes from external mechanical energy to the
internal kinetic energy of the molecules. A given
quantity of mechanical energy always yields a known
amount of heat.
27
Question for Thought
What do people really mean when they
say that a certain food “has a lot of
Calories”?
 When people refer to the “Calorie content of food,”
they are referring to the amount of chemical energy
available from the food. One way to measure the
chemical energy of foodstuff is to find out how much
heat is released by complete oxidation. A Calorie
(kcal) is a measure of the heat release and thus is a
28
measure of the chemical energy released.
Question for Thought
A piece of metal feels cooler than a
piece of wood at the same temperature.
A
B
True
False
 True. The metal is more efficient at conducting heat
away from your hand than wood, so it feels cooler
because your hand senses heat leaving your body.
29
Question for Thought
Can you explain how latent heat of
fusion and latent heat of
vaporization are “hidden.”
 The latent heats of fusion and vaporization go into or
are released from internal energy during a phase
transition. There is no temperature change
associated with these heat transfers, so they are
30
“hidden.”
Question for Thought
The condensation of water vapor on a
bathroom mirror warms the bathroom.
A
B
True
False
 True. Condensation occurs when more vapor
molecules are returning to the liquid state than are
leaving the liquid state. When a water vapor molecule
joins a group of liquid water molecules, it has to give
up its latent heat of vaporization. This heat is
transferred to the surrounding air molecules such as
the air in the bathroom.
31
Question for Thought
Which provides more cooling for a
styrofoam cooler?
A
B
One with 10 pounds of ice at 0
degrees C
One with 10 pounds of ice water at 0
degrees C?
 The 10 pounds of ice (A) provide more cooling because as the ice
undergoes the phase change into water, it absorbs heat. Ten
pounds of ice water simply absorbs heat according to the value
of its specific heat until it reaches room temperature and
32
therefore absorbs less heat.
Question for Thought
 Consider that a glass filled with a cold beverage
seems to “sweat.” Would you expect more sweating
inside a house during the summer or during the
winter?
A
Summer
B
Winter
 Water condenses out of the air onto the cooler
surface of a glass because the air near the glass is
cooled, lowering its temperature to the dew point.
Since the warmer air can hold more water vapor in
the summer, it would have more water vapor to
condense. Therefore, you would expect more
condensation in the summer.
33
Question for Thought
A burn from steam at 100 degrees C is
more severe than a burn from 100
degrees C water.
A
B
True
False
True. One hundred degree Celsius steam
contains more energy (540 cal/g) than
100°C water, so the steam burn would be
more severe.
34
Question for Thought
Relative humidity typically increases after
sunset.
A
B
True
False
 True. Cooling of air reduces the capacity of air to hold water
vapor. Relative humidity is a ratio of water in the air to how
much water it can hold. Thus a decrease of capacity increases
the relative humidity, even when the amount of water vapor in
the air is constant.
