If a jar taken form the fridge is hard to open, running the lid under warm water can help. Why is this?
The warm water acts as a lubricant for the jar
Warm water is able to shrink the jar slightly, so as to loosen the lid
Most lids from jars have chemicals that react to warm water
When the lid from the jar is warm, it expands and becomes looser
As the temperature of a substance increases...
The particles increase their motion
The particles increase the space between each other
The particles increase their kinetic energy
All of the above
The fact that it is warmer above the fire than beside it is due to
Conduction
Convection
Radiation
Latent Heat
Which of the following should be used to reduce heat lost from radiation for an individual in distress?
Wrap them in an insulated blanket
Use a mummy bag sealed tight around the person
Wrap them with a shiny reflective cover
A dark coated material blanket
In which of the following situations is here no work being done
Dragging a desk across the floor
A rocket flying owards the moon
Someone doing a chin-up
An apple falling out of a tree
Mechanical energy includes which of the following two forms of energy
Chemical and radiant
Thermal and nuclear
Potential and kinetic
Electricity and elastic
Which of the following energy types is not considered to be kinetic
Radiant
Electricity
Nuclear
Thermal
Which type of energy is typically a by-product or waste energy of an energy transformation
Radiant
Thermal
Chemical
Sound
As the temperature of a substance increases
The kinetic energy of particles increases
The potential energy of the particles increases
The kinetic energy of the particles decreasse
The potential energy of the particles decreases
The fact that it is warmer above the stove than beside it is due to ...
Conduction
Radiation

The specific heat capacity of aluminum is higher than copper means
It takes longer to heat up aluminum compared to the same size of copper
Aluminum can transfer more heat to water compared to the same size of copper
Given equal amounts of energy, aluminum would have a lower change in temperature
All of the above
Latent heat refers to the
The temperature change that occurs during a change in state
The thermal energy added as the object's temperature rises
The combined kinetic and potential energy of a substance
The thermal energy absorbed or released during a change of state

Wrap them in an insulated blanket
Use a mummy bag sealed tight around the person
Wrap them with a shiny reflective cover
A dark coated material
When an object has a temperature of 100°C its the same as
-273°K
-173°K
273°K
373°K
The amount of heat transferred depends on which of the following
The temperature of the substance
The number of molecules of the substance being added
The type of substance being added
