Temperature rise or state change?

Temperature rise or state change?

When energy is transferred by heating, it increases the substance's internal energy. Temperature is linked to the particles' average random kinetic energy, but heating can also change how far apart the particles are.

Specific heat capacity and latent heat Lesson

  1. A Level
  2. /Physics
  3. /Specific heat capacity and latent heat

Step-by-step lessons covering Edexcel A Level Physics Specific heat capacity and latent heat for A Level Physics. Each lesson works through exam-style questions in Paper 1, Paper 2 and Paper 3 format. Physics is one of the most mathematically demanding A Levels -- at least 40% of the marks across the three papers require maths skills at Level 2 (GCSE) standard or above, so build calculation and graph-handling fluency alongside the conceptual content from the start.
