Get started for freeWhen heating water on a stove, a full pan of water takes longer to reach the boiling point than a pan that is half full. Why?
A coin and a piece of glass are both heated to \(60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Which will feel warmer when you touch it?
In the most general terms, why do the Moon and the planet Mercury not have atmospheres?
A 1 -kg piece of iron is heated to \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), and then submerged in \(1 \mathrm{~kg}\) of water initially at \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The iron cools and the water warms until they are at the same temperature (in thermal equilibrium). Assuming there is no other transfer of heat involved, is the final temperature closer to \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), or \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) ? Why?
On a cool night with no wind, people facing a campfire feel a breeze on their backs. Why?
