Flashcards
What is Thermal Energy?
What is Thermal Energy?
Thermal energy is the total energy of all the particles in an object. It flows from hotter objects to cooler objects, trying to reach a state of thermal equilibrium where both objects have the same temperature.
What is Temperature?
What is Temperature?
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object. It is not the same as thermal energy, because it reflects only the average energy, not the total energy.
How does Thermal Energy Flow?
How does Thermal Energy Flow?
Thermal energy always flows from objects with higher temperature to objects with lower temperature.
