The players used a soccer ball.A person sat on a ladder next to each basket at either end of the gym, and threw out the balls that landed in the baskets. To keep the game from getting too rough, Naismith decided each team would have only five players

32、now that HEAT is a form of ENERGY? Yep, this form of energy acts on everything. And, we re goingto look at a few experiments to learn how this form of energy acts and why we need to know all about it.The heat energy of something is decided by how active its atoms （ 原子 ） and molecules （ 分 子 ） are. A

33、hot object is one whose atoms and molecules are excited and show rapid movement. A cooler object msolecules and atoms will be less excited and show less movement. When these guys are in the excited state, they take up a lot of space because they re moving around so fast. When the atoms and molecules

34、 settle down, or cool down, they take up less space.If a HOT high-energy atom comes into contact with a cool low-energy atom, the excited atom will loose some of its energy to the cool atom. The two atoms will reach an energy level that s between where they each started out. That level is called The

35、rmal Equilibrium.Experiment: If you have a cup of really hot chocolate and want to cool it down, you may put an ice cube in the cup. After the ice has completely melted （disappeared）, the hot chocolate and the melted ice have come to Thermal Equilibrium.Now that you have an idea of what heat is, let

37、king up less space. Now put the balloon in direct sunlight. What happened after it warmed up? Why?From the above experiment, we learned a very important fact heat causes things to“ grow ”.We call this Thermal Expansion. If things “ grow ”when heated, what do you think happens to them when they get c

38、old?If you get a chance to check out some railroad tracks, notice the gaps or separations between the rails. （Don t get run over by a train!） Thermal expansion and contraction is why those gaps are placed there that way, and why expansion joints are placed in long highway bridges.
