Place the two thermometers outdoors in different locations. Place one in direct sunlight and the other in shade. Make sure that

the thermometers are in a secure location so they will not fall or blow away. Do you think that there will be a difference in temperature between these two locations over a period of one week? Write down your prediction.

Yes

Explanation:

There would be a difference in temperature between the two places over the time interval.

What is temperature?

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. It is measured  using a thermometer as described in the set up.

Temperature changes is a result of heat transfer.

The sun is the ultimate source of energy for the earth.

It transfers heat to the earth by radiation.

Under a shade, the tree leaves or shed will cut off the radiation preventing it from reaching the surface. This place will be cool and at a lower temperature than expected.

The thermometer furnished with direct sunlight will have a higher temperature. As the radiation from sun hits the surface, it causes it to warm up and increase in temperature. This will cause the thermometer's temperature to also rise.

Answer:

Please do not take my word for this at all, but this is what I found, "When the pendulum swings back down, the potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy. At all times, the sum of potential and kinetic energy is constant." So I think the answer is B also you are anime fan too lol :DD I love hinata

suppose the same amount of heat is applied to two bars. they have the same mass, but experience different changes in temperature
Andreyy89

If both bars are made of a good conductor, then their specific heat capacities must be different. If both are metals, specific heat capacities of different metals can vary by quite a bit, eg, both are in kJ/kgK, Potassium is 0.13, and Lithium is very high at 3.57 - both of these are quite good conductors.

If one of the bars is a good conductor and the other is a good insulator, then, after the surface application of heat, the temperatures at the surfaces are almost bound to be different. This is because the heat will be rapidly conducted into the body of the conducting bar, soon achieving a constant temperature throughout the bar. Whereas, with the insulator, the heat will tend to stay where it's put, heating the bar considerably over that area. As the heat slowly conducts into the bar, it will also start to cool from its surface, because it's so hot, and even if it has the same heat capacity as the other bar, which might be possible, it will eventually reach a lower, steady temperature throughout.
