Question | Answer |
The total energy of all of the particles in an object. | Thermal Energy |
Thermal energy moving from a warmer object to a cooler object. | Heat |
Heat is transferred from one particle of matter to another without the movement of the matter. | Conduction |
Heat is transferred by the movement of currents within a fluid. | Convection |
Water at the bottom of a pot is heated (particles move faster and further apart become less dense) -> Heated water rises -> The cooler water flows into its place. This flow creates a circular motion. | Convection Current |
Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. | Radiation |
A material that conducts heat well. | Conductor |
A material that dose not conduct heat well. | Insulator |
When one form of energy is transformed to another, no energy is destroyed in the process. (Energy cannot be created or destroyed.) | Law of Conservation of Energy |
The force that opposes the motion of one surface as it moves across another surface. | Friction |
