Heat Worksheet - IGCSE Extended

This document contains information from multiple sections or "cores" that discuss heat-related concepts like specific heat capacity, heat transfer, phase changes, and thermal expansion. Key points covered include: 1) Calculations of heat required to change temperatures of different materials like sand and water. Sand requires less energy due to its lower specific heat capacity. 2) Explanations of heat transfer mechanisms like air molecules bombarding glass or smoke particles. 3) Derivations showing relationships between pressure, volume and temperature for an ideal gas based on Charles' Law. 4) Discussions of thermal expansion properties for different materials like copper having a small expansion but high melting point.
