Ck 12 Exploration Series: Simulations: Physics: Hot Oven
[Free Registration/Login Required] Do you know why the metal in the oven burns your skin but the air in the oven doesn't? This simulation will show you the relationship between heat energy and temperature.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Specific Heat of Metals
In this activity, students' will use a Temperature Sensor to understand how heat is transferred between substances and the concept of thermal equilibrium. They learn about specific heat and how it can be used to identify an unknown sample.
