26th October 2010

A bit late in starting due to the assembly and House assembly. However, we did manage to get quite a lot of work done.

The difference between heat (energy) and temperature (a measure of how hot or cold something is ) was established.

We then went on to find the specific heat capacity of water - and it was higher than we expected due to the heat loss to the surroundings.

The equation for the day is E = c x m x change in temperature.

More experiments next lesson.

Assessment on the horizon covering all of Unit 1 so can I suggest you start revising now.

Any questions please ask

Mrs M :-)
