After a sheep has its wool cut off, it is harder for it to stay warm when the air temperature falls. How does the wool help the sheep to stay warm? A B C D Air can circulate between the wool fibres and heat up the skin by convection. Air trapped by the wool fibres reduces heat losses from the skin by convection. The wool fibres are curly so it takes longer for heat to be conducted away from the skin. The wool fibres conduct heat to the skin from the air outside.

Four blocks, made from different materials, are each heated so that they have the same increase in internal energy. Which block has the smallest thermal capacity?
A B C D

temperature rise = 3 C

temperature rise = 6 C

temperature rise = 9 C

temperature rise = 12 C

A large amount of energy is needed to make the object melt. A small amount of energy is needed to make the object become hot. A small amount of energy is needed to make the object melt.

A heater supplies 80 J of energy to a block of metal. The temperature of the block rises by 20 C. What happens to the block of metal when its temperature falls by 10 C? A B C D Its internal energy decreases by 40 J. Its internal energy decreases by 160 J. Its internal energy increases by 40 J. Its internal energy increases by 160 J.
