Questions and Answers

What is thermal transfer?

  • The movement of heat energy from one area or object to another (correct)
  • The transfer of kinetic energy from a warmer area to a cooler area
  • The process of creating heat energy from electrical energy
  • The conversion of heat energy into kinetic energy
  • In thermal systems, why is one substance described as being warmer than another?

  • Because it has more thermal energy (correct)
  • Because it has more potential energy
  • Because it has more kinetic energy
  • Because it has more electrical energy
  • What happens to heat energy in a thermal transfer process?

  • It is converted into potential energy
  • It moves from a warmer area or object to a cooler one (correct)
  • It is evenly distributed within the same area or object
  • It is absorbed by the surroundings
