Physics – Heat

Here is an easy quiz on the topic of Heat (Physics). There are ten questions. The quiz is not timed.

Good luck.

1 / 10

Heat transfer can occur via:

Conduction, convection, or radiation

Radiation only

Convection only

Conduction only

2 / 10

What is thermal equilibrium?

None of the above

The state in which two objects are with same heat energy but at different temperatures

The state in which two objects in contact with each other no longer exchange heat and have the same temperature

The state in which two objects exchange heat continuously

3 / 10

Convection is the transfer of heat through:

Direct contact

Electromagnetic waves

None of the above

Movement of fluids

4 / 10

The cause of heat energy: The energy that we feel as heat arises from the random motion (and collisions) of molecules in gases or liquids. In the case of solids, it is the vibration of the molecules or atoms we feel as heat.

True.

False.

5 / 10

Conduction is the transfer of heat through:

Sound waves

Electromagnetic waves

Movement of fluids

Direct contact between particles in a solid

6 / 10

Radiation is the transfer of heat through:

Movement of fluid particles

Direct contact

Movement of solid’s particles

Electromagnetic waves

7 / 10

Heat is transferred between objects due to:

Density difference

Temperature difference

Volume difference

Pressure difference

8 / 10

What is the key distinction between heat and temperature?

Heat and temperature are the same

Heat is a measure of temperature

Temperature is the energy transferred between systems

Heat is the energy transferred between systems, while temperature measures average kinetic energy

9 / 10

The first law of thermodynamics, also known as law of conservation of energy, states that:

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form into another.

Energy can be created and destroyed

Energy transfer happens to make the temperature of the systems equal.

Heat is the only form of energy

10 / 10

Heat is measured in:

Watts

Newtons

Joules

Pascals
