We have done two lab reports that discuss different topics:
The first one discussed the effect of temperature on average kinetic energy and average speed and what we concluded was that temperature was directly proportional to both average kinetic energy and average speed. Temperature is the average kinetic energy and as speed increases the average kinetic energy will increase, increasing the temperature.
Our conclusion was: Both particles would have the same graph shapes, but the difference is the numbers that came from the average speed, temperature, and average kinetic energy. The mass makes the set of smaller balls move faster which shows us that mass is the factor that can change the speed and temperature of a substance.
The second one discussed the kinetic energy of an object. We put food dye into two beakers, one with hot water and one with cold water. the one with hot water has made the dye spread faster which shows that when the temperature increases the movement of the particles will increase which will increase the collision and average kinetic energy and will result in a higher speed.
Our conclusion was: The particles will move faster which will cause more collision between the particles, the average kinetic energy will increase causing an increase in speed.
