Review: Suppose we have a 200-gram block of aluminum initially at 25°C. If we supply 5000 joules of heat energy to the block, what will be its final temperature? The specific heat capacity of aluminum is 0.9 J/g∘C. use

Why can you comfortably hold your fingers closely beside an open candle flame, but not comfortably closely above a candle flame?
What is the role of "loose" electrons in heat conductors?
As a given mass of air rises, why does it cool down?
Why does the direction of coastal winds change from day to night?

Since all objects are absorbing energy from their surroundings, why don't the temperatures of all objects continually increase?
How do the wavelengths of radiant energy vary with the temperature of the radiating source
If I pour a hot cup of water into a bucket of cold water, they will eventually reach "thermal equilibrium". Define "thermal equilibrium".
Two objects can have different amounts of heat, but be at thermal equilibrium
Even if the air isn't quite freezing, frost can form on a plant at night, but will not form on a rock nearby. Why?
