Heat and Light.

Page 2: Natural science heat and light

Heat is the amount

of thermal energy an

object has.

Page 3: Natural science heat and light

is a form of energythat travels throughair and space in waves.

Page 4: Natural science heat and light

Thermal energy always travels from a hotter

object to a colder one. In 3 different forms.

Radiation

Conduction Convection

Page 5: Natural science heat and light

Thermal energy always travels from a hotter

object to a colder one. In 3 different forms.

Radiation

Thermal energy can be

transferred by space

through electromagnetic

waves.

Conduction.

Occurs when 2

objects are in

contact and

thermal energy

transferred from

an object to the

other .

Convection.

Occurs when thermal

energy travel trough

a gas or a liquid

EXPANSION.THERMAL ENERGY

CAUSES THE

MOLECULES IN A

SOLID, LIQUID OR

GAS TO VIBRATE, AS A

RESULT THE

MATERIAL EXPANDS.

CHEMICAL

CHANGES.Thermal energy can

cause chemical

changes like when we

make fairy cakes or

an omelette.

Light is a radiation that we can see with oureyes. It´s made up of microscopic particlesthat travel in waves.

Objects reactions to light

TransparentIt doesn´t

block light.

OpaqueIt blocks the

light

completely.

TranslucientSome objects

can block

light, but

some can pass

trough the

material.

REFLECTION

REFRACTION

OCCURS WHEN LIGHT

ENERGY BOUNCES OFF A

SURFACE AND CHANGES

DIRECTION

OCCURS WHEN LIGHT PASSES

TROUGH SOME

TRANSPARENT SUBSTANCES

LIKE WATER, AND LIGHT

ENERGY CHANGES

DIRECTION SLIGHTLY.

WHITE LIGHT

WHITE LIGHT IS MADE

UP OF ALL THE

COLOURS COMBINED

TOGETHER.

WE CAN DIVIDE IT BY

REFRACTION

When light energy hits an object,

some of this energy is absorbed by

the object.

This energy makes the molecules of

the object vibrate faster . If we touch

the object, we feel this vibration as

heat.
