Thermal Energy
the
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Thermal Energy | The total kinetic (motion) energy of the tiny particles that make up matter |
| Temperature | Average kinetic energy of all the particles in a material; measured buy a thermometer in degrees (usually degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit) |
| System | A group of interacting, interrelated, or interdependent elements forming a complex whole |
| Matter | Anything that has volume and mass |
| Kinetic Energy | Energy of motion |
| Heat Transfer | The thermal energy exchange two different temperatures |
| Conductor | A substance that allows the flow of electrical charge or transfer thermal energy through matter |
| Conduction | Transfer of thermal energy that occurs in solids, liquid, and gas when two substances are different temperatures touch. |
| Convection | Heat transfer caused by the rising of hotter less dense fluid and the falling of cold air denser fluid. |
| Energy | The ability of a system to do work; recordings of changes to happen with a system |
| Heat Transfer | The thermal energy exchange two different temperatures |
| States of Matter | Distinct forms of matter known in everyday experience: solid liquid and gas also refreshed to a phrase. |
| Radiation | The transfer of energy by the material of electrical kinetic wave or substance particles |
