Temp, Thermal Energy
Use to help study for your quiz on Temperature, Thermal Energy, and Heat
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Heat | The transfer of thermal energy from a warmer object to a cooler object |
Temperature | The measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object. |
Celsius | The temperature scale that is used by the rest of the world. |
Celsius Boiling Point | 100 degrees |
Fahrenheit Boiling Point | 212 degrees |
Two factors of Thermal energy | 1. The temperature of the object 2. The number of particles |
Absolute Zero | at this point, the particles in an object have no kinetic energy. |
Kelvin Scale | This scale is used by scientist and has no negative numbers. |
Thermal Energy will increase when.. | there are more particles, so larger object will have more thermal energy. |
Particle Speed | Will increase when heat is increased. |
