Q1. Recall what you know about temperature and average kinetic energy per
particle by filling in the following blanks in the statement provided below. (Ai 1-2)
Objects at the -same- temperature have the same average kinetic energy per
particle. The higher the temperature, the -greater- the average kinetic energy per
particle.
Q2. The diagrams show four blocks of steel. The blocks are all drawn to the same
scale. The same quantity of thermal energy is given to each block. Predict and
select which block shows the greatest rise and the least rise in temperature?
(Aii 3-4)

Block---A------shows the greatest rise in temperature.
Block----B---------shows the least rise in temperature.
Q4. A block of aluminium of mass 2.0 kg has an initial temperature of 20 C. It
absorbs 7300 J of thermal energy. The specific heat capacity of aluminium is 913 J
/(kg C). Calculate is the final temperature of the aluminium block? (Aii 5-6)
Use the equation:
change in internal energy = mass × specific heat capacity × change in temperature
𝟕𝟑𝟎𝟎 = 2.0× 𝟗𝟏𝟑 × (𝑻𝒇 − 𝟐𝟎)
:𝟕𝟑𝟎𝟎 ÷ (𝟐. 𝟎 × 𝟗𝟏𝟑) = (𝑻𝒇 − 𝟐𝟎)
3.997+ 20= 𝑻𝒇
The final temperature 23.997 C
Q3.
A student calculates the energy needed to raise the temperature of an
aluminium block from 50 C to 60 C. He then does an experiment to measure
the energy used to do this. Select the statement about the measured energy
which is correct and explain the reason in the space provided. (Ai 7-8)
A The measured energy will be greater than the calculated energy because some
energy is transferred to the surroundings.
B The measured energy will be greater than the calculated energy because --------
