When the end of the metal rod is hot, the wax melts and the pin falls.
a) What type of heat transfer is Angelique investigating?
Thermal transfer by conduction
b) Angelique repeats the investigation with rods made of different metals.
The pins fall after different amounts of time.
Why do pins fall after different amounts of time?
Different materials and different conductivity
c) Angelique draws a picture of the atoms inside one of the metal rods.
Describe how the heat is transferred to the end of the metal rod.
Use Angelique’s drawing to help you.
By heating the particles will gain energy to vibrate more vigorously
, vibration travel along metal rod to other end
23
11. Draw a line from the type of energy to its description and example.
One has been done for you.

12. The lizard loses thermal (heat) energy and gains thermal (heat) energy.
Complete the labels to show the energy transfers taking place.
Choose from the following words.
Conduction convection radiation
radiation
conduction
convection
Pierre predicts that the penguins in the middle of the group will be the warmest.
Angelique suggests that they plan an investigation to test Pierre’s prediction.
They decide to use test-tubes filled with hot water to represent eight penguins.
She labels on tube A and stands it on its own.
She labels another tube B and places it in the middle of six other tubes all labeled C.
Angelique fills the eight test-tubes with hot water.
25
Angelique and Pierre record the temperatures of the water in tubes A, B and C over a period of
time.
a) Name two pieces of apparatus they use to obtain the measurement they need.
Measuring Cylinder - and Thermometer .
b) State one variable they need to keep the same in their investigation.
Variable Volume of water
Explain your answer.
To make a fair test

When the end of the metal rod is hot, the wax melts and the pin falls.
Blessy must think about the safety hazards of this investigation.
Describe two of these safety hazards.
1. The heat from the metal rod might cause harmful burns to the skin
