LESSON 4: HEAT FLOW
Let's Look at What We've Learned:
So far, we've learned:
1. There are different forms of energy, divided into potential (stored) and kinetic (moving) energy.
2. Thermal energy (heat energy) is a form of kinetic energy that comes from moving particles.
3. Energy can be transformed from one type of energy to another. For example, chemical energy from food can be transformed into thermal energy to help heat our bodies.
4. Insulators keep heat in, conductors allow heat to flow.
5. Climate change is altering the weather and seasonal temperatures around the world.

Scenario A: Extreme Cold
James Balog, world-famous photographer known for his role in the documentary “Chasing Ice”, will be venturing even farther into the Arctic Circle to track the movement of ice. He will be facing temperatures of -50 degrees Celsius, high winds, limited sunlight, and the elements (snow, ice, blizzards, and very cold water).
Your task is to design an outfit (including under layers, coat, boots, hat and gloves) that will protect James in this extreme environment. Make sure to identify and explai all the materials you are using and why you have made these choices. Draw and label a diagram of James’ outfit.
Scenario B: Extreme Heat
Kati is living in North Africa, where average temperatures are expected to rise by 3 degrees Celsius over the next few years. The hottest temperatures already exceed 50 degrees Celsius, so Kati needs clothing that will help her face extreme heat, lack of rain, powerful sun and lack of water.
Your task is to design an outfit that will protect Kati in this extreme environment. Make sure to identify and explain all the materials you are using and why you have made these choices. Draw and label a diagram of Kati’s outfit
