Standard Deviants Español: Fisíca 8 Calor

Product Description

Physics is hot, hot, hot! The Standard Deviants start off with the concept of heat transfer — you’ll find out how much energy it takes to raise the temperature of a substance. Next, we’ll discuss changes of state. How much heat does it take to change ice to water, or solid silver to a gas? The topic of heat transfer includes specific heat capacity, equilibrium temperature, energy conservation (again based from the principles of module 6), latent heat, and heats of fusion and vaporization. The joule is introduced as a new unit of measure. As with the subject of ‘work’, module 6, heat transfer is important in Physics, Biology, and Chemistry. It is an ever-present part of our lives with which everyone needs a working knowledge.
