This Specific Heat and Particle Motion helps you explore how thermal energy affects particle speed and temperature in different substances. You will see how heat energy transfers directly into microscopic kinetic motion.
In this lab, you can test various materials like aluminum, copper, iron, and water. You can apply equal electrical energy and observe how fast their particles move. You can also monitor live temperature rise, energy supplied, and specific heat capacity values in real time.
Use the simple controls to adjust heater power, change sample mass, and inspect particle motion up close. It is an easy and visual way to master heat capacity concepts without complicated setup.
