Thermal Energy transfer Flashcards
hi
What is the matter?
nothing I just am bored with the boring people in my class nothing much that’s all :)
What is kinetic energy?
The energy of an object because of motion, the word kinetic, stems from the Greek word for motion.
What is Temperature?
Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of the particles of an object or substance.
What is heat?
Heat is the flow of energy from warmer places to cooler places due to difference in the temperature.
What is Thermal Equilibrium?
Thermal Equilibrium happens when heat flows from a higher temperature object to almost a lower temperature object until the two objects have an equal temperature.
What is conduction?
Conduction is the transfer of heat through a solid material by direct contact of particles.
What is Convection?
Convection is the transfer of heat in a fluid(gas or liquid) cause when hotter,m less dense fluids rise and cooler, more dense fluids sink
What is radiation?
Radiation is the transfer of heat through the empty space of invisible electromagnetic rays. No matter of required of the heat transfer to occur
