Question for Thought
A kWhr isA a unit of workB a unit of energyC a unit of powerD 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.

![Page 26: HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 - George Mason Universityphysics.gmu.edu/~hgeller/HONORS227/227f08Chptr4.pdf · HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 ... aWhat happens to the velocity and acceleration](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022515/5af9e6dc7f8b9abd588d8829/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Question for ThoughtAs 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.

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 Increase the insulation value.B 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.

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.

Question for ThoughtCooler 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.
![Page 30: HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 - George Mason Universityphysics.gmu.edu/~hgeller/HONORS227/227f08Chptr4.pdf · HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 ... aWhat happens to the velocity and acceleration](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022515/5af9e6dc7f8b9abd588d8829/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Question for Thought
Is air a good insulator?A YesB 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.
![Page 31: HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 - George Mason Universityphysics.gmu.edu/~hgeller/HONORS227/227f08Chptr4.pdf · HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 ... aWhat happens to the velocity and acceleration](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022515/5af9e6dc7f8b9abd588d8829/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
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.
![Page 32: HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 - George Mason Universityphysics.gmu.edu/~hgeller/HONORS227/227f08Chptr4.pdf · HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 ... aWhat happens to the velocity and acceleration](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022515/5af9e6dc7f8b9abd588d8829/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
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 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 TrueB 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.
![Page 34: HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 - George Mason Universityphysics.gmu.edu/~hgeller/HONORS227/227f08Chptr4.pdf · HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 ... aWhat happens to the velocity and acceleration](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022515/5af9e6dc7f8b9abd588d8829/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
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 “hidden.”
![Page 35: HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 - George Mason Universityphysics.gmu.edu/~hgeller/HONORS227/227f08Chptr4.pdf · HNRS 227 Fall 2008 Chapter 4 ... aWhat happens to the velocity and acceleration](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022022515/5af9e6dc7f8b9abd588d8829/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Question for Thought
The condensation of water vapor on a bathroom mirror warms the bathroom.
A TrueB 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.

Question for Thought
Which provides more cooling for a styrofoam cooler?
A One with 10 pounds of ice at 0 degrees C
B One with 10 pounds of ice water at 0 degrees C?
The 10 pounds of ice (A) provide more cooling because as the iceundergoes 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 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 SummerB 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.

Question for Thought
A burn from steam at 100 degrees C is more severe than a burn from 100 degrees C water.
A TrueB 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.

Relative humidity typically increases after sunset.
A TrueB 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.

Question
A 1.0 kg metal head of a geology hammer strikes a solid rock with a velocity of 5.0 meters per second. Assuming that all of the energy is retained by the hammer head, how much will the temperature increase? (specific heat of hammer head is 0.11 kcal/kgC)
