Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

The diagrams show four blocks of steel. The blocks are all drawn to the same scale. The same quantity of thermal energy (heat) is given to each block. Which block shows the greatest rise in temperature?
A
Between which labelled points on the graph is the substance partly solid and partly liquid?
between Q and R
What is the main process by which the water at the bottom of the glass becomes cool?
convection
Why are the cables left loose?
They will expand on very warm days.
An engineer wants to fix a steel washer on to a steel rod. The rod is just too big to fit into the hole of the washer. How can the engineer fit the washer on to the rod?
Heat the rod and then place it in the hole in the washer.
Which two beakers should she use to check the fixed points?
Q and S
A substance loses thermal energy (heat) to the surroundings at a steady rate. The graph shows how the temperature of the substance changes with time. What could the portion PQ of the graph represent?
liquid cooling
A car tyre has a constant volume. Why does the pressure of the air in the tyre increase when its temperature increases?
The average speed of the air molecules in the tyre is greater.
The diagrams represent the molecules in two different states of matter. The arrows show the motion of the molecules. What is state 1, and what is state 2?
state 1: gas; state 2: solid
A cylinder of constant volume contains a fixed mass of gas. The gas is cooled. What happens to the pressure of the gas and what happens to the kinetic energy of the gas molecules?
pressure: decrease; KE: decrease
The gas in a container is heated but is kept at constant volume. Why does the gas pressure increase?
The molecules move more rapidly
Molecules escape from a liquid during evaporation. The temperature of the remaining liquid changes. Which molecules escape and how does the temperature change?
molecule escape: more energetic; temperature: decrease
The diagram represents moving gas molecules in a sealed container of fixed volume. The temperature of the gas is now increased. What happens to the pressure of the gas, and what happens to the speed of the gas molecules?
Pressure: increase, speed: increase
Small smoke particles suspended in air are viewed through a microscope. The smoke particles move randomly. What does this show?
The air consists of fast-moving molecules.
A gas is stored in a sealed container of constant volume. The temperature of the gas increases. This causes the pressure of the gas to increase. What happens to the kinetic energy of the gas molecules during this pressure increase?
The average kinetic energy of the molecules increases.
A cup contains hot liquid. Some of the liquid evaporates. What happens to the mass and what happens to the weight of the liquid in the cup?
mass: decrease, weight: decrease.
