OBJECTIVES

At the end of the lesson, students will be able:

1. define heat and temperature
2.describe the effect of heat to an object
3. differentiate heat and temperature
• In our Activity 1, Pick-the-Pic, 80°C cup of
coffee has a higher temperature than 30°C
swimming pool. 80°C is higher than 30°C.
• But the pool has greater total internal energy
than the cup of coffee. Although the pool has
lesser internal energy per mass, its greater
mass gives it greater total energy than the
small cup of coffee.
• In the second picture, set up B will heat up
faster compared to set up A, it has a greater
mass compared to Set B.
 What is temperature?
• Temperature is the “degree of hotness or coldness.” It is the measure of
how hot or cold a thing is compared to a reference point (boiling point
of 100°C and the freezing point of 0°C).
• In measuring the temperature of an object we use the thermometer.
• In the Philippines we often use the derived SI unit, degree Celsius
(0°C)or degree centigrade.
• Boiling point of 100°C and freezing point of 0°C of water are the usual
reference points. The greater the number, the higher the temperature is.
Other countries use the English units, Fahrenheit (°F) or the unit Kelvin
(°K).
• Temperature is not an energy, but is related to how fast the atoms
within a substance are moving (kinetic energy). It is the measure of the
average kinetic energy of the molecules in the system.
 What is heat?
•Heat is energy in transit or motion. It
moves from a hotter object or body to a
colder body/object.
•It is important to remember that an object
does not contain heat.
•Once heat energy touches another object,
it is eventually converted into internal
energy.
How does heat differ from temperature?
• On an atomic level, the molecules in each object are
constantly in motion and colliding each other, every
time molecules collide, kinetic energy can be
transferred.
• The mass of the substance affects the time it takes
for all the molecules in a substance to increase its
temperature.
• The greater the mass, the longer time it needs to
raise its temperature (heating). In the same way, the
greater the mass, the more energy is absorbed, thus,
the longer it will take to release the energy (cooling
down) being absorbed.
To sum up, these are what we have discussed today.
Remember these key concepts:
● Temperature is the measure of degree of hotness or coldness
of an object/body. It is the average kinetic energy which
determines the flow of heat.
● Thermometer is the device used to measure temperature. It
uses the scale degree Celsius, degree Fahrenheit (English
unit), and (base SI) unit Kelvin.
● Boiling point of water is at 100°C and freezing point is at
0°C. These are the reference points for temperature.
● Heat is an energy in transit. It is the measure of total kinetic
energy of a substance.
● Heat is measured in joules and calories.
● The internal energy is the total amount of energy contained in an
object.
● Temperature does not depend on mass. Heat depends on the mass
of a substance. The greater the mass, the greater is the internal
energy.
● Heat is the thermal energy that is being transferred due to
temperature difference. It always flow from hotter objects to objects with
lower temperature.
● When an object is heated, energy is actually given off to the object
(gained by the object heated), in other ways, when an object is
cooled, energy is released from the object.
● An object does not contain heat. Once heat energy touches another
object, it is eventually converted into internal energy. When a
substance absorbs heat, its molecules gain kinetic energy and move at
a greater speed.
