Questions:<br />

1. Which has more kinetic energy, a semi truck travelling<br />

30km/hr or a bicycle travelling 30km/hr? Why?<br />

2. Water does not always freeze at 0�C it can be cooled to –20<br />

or 30�C if conditions are right. Which has more total thermal<br />

energy, liquid water at -10�C or ice at the same<br />

temperature? Why?<br />

3. You are heating a substance but its temperature is not<br />

increasing what type of energy is being increased? Why?<br />

4. You are cooling hot iron in cold water, what kind of energy is<br />

being lost by the iron? Why?<br />

5. The water in the above question evaporates when the iron<br />

touches it, what type of energy is being increased in the<br />

water? Why?<br />

6. You apply a force of 1000N to a baseball, <strong>and</strong> it travels a<br />

distance of 80m. You apply this same force to a rail car <strong>and</strong><br />

it does not move at all, have you done work in both cases?<br />

Why or why not?
