Physics: Students will use scientific skills and processes to explain the interactions of matter and energy and the energy transformations that occur.
Thermodynamics: Describe and cite evidence that heat can be transferred by conduction, convection and radiation.
Based on observable phenomena, identify and describe examples of heat being transferred through conduction and through convection.
Based on observable phenomena, identify examples to illustrate that radiation does not require matter to transfer heat energy.
Research and identify the types of insulators that best reduce heat loss through conduction, convection, or radiation.
