the vocab of science

The definition of Conduction is the meaning of transfer of thermal energy that occurs in solids, liquids, and gases when, two substances of different temperatures touch

ive seen the definition of convection heat transfer caused by the rising of hotter, less dense fluids and the falling of cooler, more dense fluids

emissivity has a def of measure of how well an object radiates

greenhouse effect is the definition of the warming of Earth that is due to gases such as carbon dioxide and methane that absorb infrared radiation from Earth’s surface and reradiate it in all directions, thus sending a fraction of it back toward the surface of Earth

heat is a type of energy that makes things warm

heat of sublimation has a way to the energy required to change a substance from the solid phase to the vapor phase

kilocalorie has a 1kilocalorie=1,000calories

latent heat coefficient defines a physical constant equal to the amount of heat transferred for every 1 kg of a substance during the change in phase of the substance

mechanical equivalent of heat defines the work needed to produce the same effects as heat transfer

net rate of heat transfer by radiation is the equation Qnett=σeA(T42−T41)

R factor has the ratio of thickness to the conductivity of a material

radiation shows us the heat transfer which occurs when microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, or other electromagnetic radiation is emitted or absorbed

radiation defines energy transferred by electromagnetic waves directly as a result of a temperature difference

rate of conductive heat transfer has to be the rate of heat transfer from one material to another

specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to change the temperature of 1.00 kg of a substance by 1.00 ºC

Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation hits to home of Qt=σeAT4, where σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, A is the surface area of the object, T is the absolute temperature, and e is the emissivity

sublimation has a definition of the transition from the solid phase to the vapor phase

thermal conductivity shows the property of a material’s ability to conduct heat
