Name: _Elyahuw Hubbard_____________________________________________________ 1.06 Heat Transfer Lab Standard : HS-PS3-4. Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that the transfer of thermal energy when two components of different temperature are combined within a closed system results in a more uniform energy distribution among the components in the system (second law of thermodynamics). Access the virtual lab linked below to answer the following questions. Link to virtual lab: https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/energy-forms-and- changes/latest/energy-forms-and-changes_en.html Directions: Open the virtual lab and click on Intro. Then click the box on Energy Symbols at the top right. Follow the directions and fill in the blank boxes to the right with your answer. Directions and Questions Answer in this column Place the iron block on top of the heater and turn on the heat. 1. Where are the energy symbols going and what does this represent? (4pts) The energy symbols are going ________ u p_________________ and this represents __ a positive change __________. Turn off the heat and place it into the “Cool” position. 2. Where are the energy symbols going and what does this represent? (4pts) The energy symbols are going ________ down _________________ and this represents _________ a negative change __. Place a thermometer in the beaker with water. Place another thermometer in the beaker with olive oil. Heat up the iron block for 30 seconds. Place it in the water. Reset the lab. Heat up the iron block for 30 The____ oil _______ heated up faster.
seconds. Place it in oil. 3. Did the water or oil heat up faster? (2pts) Reset the lab. Link the heaters and show the energy symbols (top right). Put the thermometer into the water. Heat up both the iron block and brick for 30 seconds. Then place both into the water. 4. Describe what happens when both heated blocks are placed into the water. (6pts) It creates smoke then the brick block begins to lose energy as the iron block loses energy much slower than the brick block. 5. Where do the energy symbols go when the heated blocks are placed into the water? (4pts) It goes Into the air. Take both blocks out of the water and place them back onto the heaters. Cool them down for 30 seconds. Place both blocks into the water. (The water should still be hot) 6. Describe what happens both cooled blocks are placed into the water. (6pts) Both blocks get the original energy that they had in the beginning. 7. Where do the energy symbols go when the cooled blocks are placed into the Into the water
water? (4pts)
