AQA ELC How energy is transferred Pupils to understand and have knowledge of; Outcomes to be assessed against
Science by heating? 1. How all bodies emit and absorb infrared radiation, and the ELC requirements.
What affects the rate of how the hotter an object is the more infrared
radiation it radiates in a given time. Pupils to complete;

homes? 3. The use of kinetic theory to explain the different
states of matter, and that the particles of solids, Also, pupils cover aspects of the
liquids and gases have different amounts of energy. GCSE Science A specification as
4. The transfer of energy by conduction, convection, appropriate, including
evaporation and condensation involving particles. Sankey diagrams
5. At least two factors that affect the rate of calculate % efficiencies using
data gathered by the students
evaporation and condensation.
6. The rate at which an object transfers energy by
heating depending on surface area, the material from
which the object is made and the nature of the
surface.
7. How the bigger the temperature difference between
an object and its surroundings, the faster the rate at
which energy is transferred by heating.
8. Heating and insulating buildings, and how U-values
measure how effective a material is as an insulator.

9. How, when energy is transferred, only part of it may
be usefully transferred, the rest being 'wasted' and
transferred to the surroundings, and becoming less
useful.
10. How the greater the percentage of the energy that is
usefully transformed in a device, the more efficient
the device is, e.g. filament lamps and fluorescent
tubes.
11. Designing an experiment to test which cools more
quickly tea in a white cup or in a black cup.
12. Make measurements or observations
13. Record data
14. Present Data
15. Identify patterns & relationships
