Look back to number 1.
Explain why you think the cup warmed up more.
A beverage company wants to stop using plastic straws, so the company designs a new lid. The new lid has a much bigger hole than the old lid.
Alex, a scientist at the company, is wondering how this might affect what happens with the liquid inside the cup.
A beverage company wants to stop using plastic straws, so the company designs a new lid. The new lid has a much bigger hole than the old lid.
Alex, a scientist at the company, is wondering how this might affect what happens with the liquid inside the cup.
If Alex does an experiment and fills 2 cups with cold liquid at the same temperature:
1 cup with the old lid (with a bigger hole)
1 cup with the new lid (with a smaller hole)
Which cup do you think warmed up more?
At the end of 30 days Alex finds that one cup lost more liquid than the other. Add particle diagrams for the zoomed-in views at lid locations A and B to help explain how that could happen.
Alex repeats the Question 1 experiment 4 times. Each time, she records how much the liquid in the cup that warmed up the most changed temperature after 10 minutes. Here are her results:
Based on these data, what is the average temperature change for the liquid in the cup? ________℃
