Later Temperature Evidence
Constructed teaching data: these values were invented for this activity, not collected in an experiment.
Use after another learning opportunity, without earlier examples visible. This new case reverses the direction; it is not a calibrated equivalent form.
Equal 100 g samples begin at 40°C in a 22°C room. After the same 20 minutes, endpoints are shown. Other comparison conditions match. This is a paper task, not a hot-water activity.
| Design | Start (°C) | After 20 minutes (°C) |
|---|---|---|
| No sleeve | 40 | 28 |
| Sleeve P | 40 | 32 |
| Sleeve Q | 40 | 36 |
Later question 1
Which sleeve better limits cooling? Compare all three temperature changes and explain the direction of net energy transfer. Is 'choose the lowest final temperature' a useful rule here?
