Some chefs swear by copper pots and pans, but they are much more expensive than other materials. Are they worth it? Well, it all comes down to electrons!

In this video Paul Andersen explains how thermal conductivity measures the ability of material to transfer heat from a hot to a cold object. The thermal conductivity of conductors is high because the heat travels through the delocalized...

Have you ever wondered why we wear clothes? I mean, beyond the obvious. Why does wearing a jacket in the cold keep your warmer? What is happening to all the heat inside your body? In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini talks...

Today we’re talking about heat transfer and the different mechanisms behind it. We’ll explore conduction, the thermal conductivity of materials, convection, boundary layers, and radiation.

The thermal mass of an object is its ability to store or absorb heat. Things that are considered ‘difficult’ to heat generally have a high thermal mass. Brick or concrete, for example, heat up only after they’re provided with a lot...

In this video students will make observations to identify materials based on their properties. Students will set up their own experiment in which they will identify the properties of ten types of matter. The video correlates to the Next...

Temperature sensors explained. How do temperature sensors work? In this video we learn the basics of how different temperature sensors work. We look at thermometers, thermocouples, thermistors and resistance temperature detectors RTD.<br/>

How do laptops stay cool? we look inside a laptop to learn how a laptop heat pipe works to control the thermal management of a laptop and remove the heat from the processor.

This explains structure and properties of water including hardness of water and methods of removing the hardness.

Thermocouples, learn how thermocouples work in this video. We'll cover types of thermocouples, applications of thermocouples, the physics behind thermocouples as well as experiments to show how it works.

The pirates are off to find more treasure! Will they make it across the stormy seas? This lesson will survey the physical properties of metals, non-metals and metalloids. Definitions included: physical property, standard ambient...

This video provides an introduction to the noble gas Argon, discussing its properties, uses, and potential dangers. Argon is commonly used in industrial processes, such as in graphite furnaces to prevent burning and in arc welding as a...
