Two students carry out different experiments to compare the abilities of different metals to conduct thermal energy heat metal bar ABC D melted wax strip length of melted wax strip experiment 1 experiment 2 in experiment 1 the bar is heated for one minute and the length of wax strip that melts is measured decreases decreases In experiment 2 the bar is heated and the time taken for the pin to drop off is measured What happens to each of these measurements when a better conductor of thermal energy is tested increases 1 heat increases metal bar time taken for the pin to drop decreases increases decreases increases wax pin
