| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in the object | Temperature |
| the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in an object | Thermal Energy |
| thermal energy that flows from something at a higher temperature | Heat |
| The amount of heat that is needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of some material by 1 C | Specific Heat |
| The transfer of thermal energy by collisions between particles in matter | Conduction |
| the transfer of thermal energy in a fluid by the movement of warmer and cooler fluid from place to place. | Convention |
| the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves | Radiant |
| a material in which heat flows slowly | Insulator |
| absorb radiant energy from the Sun | Solar Colector |
| thermal energy, heat, and work are related, and the study of the relationship among them | Thermodynamics |
| according to this law, the increase in thermal energy of a system equals the work done on the system plus the heat transferred to the system | First law of thermodynamics |
| that it is impossible for heat to flow from a cool object to a warmer object unless work is done | Second law of thermodynamics |
| a device that converts heat into work | Heat engine |
| the heat engine in a car | Internal combustion engine |
