Types Of Energy Transfer Flashcards
The energy of the moving particles of matter
Thermal. Energy
A type of energy produced by vibrations of matter
Sound energy
The flow of thermal energy from one substance to another
Conduction
The transfer of thermal energy by flowing gases or liquid such as the rising of warm air from a heater
Convection
The transfer of energy though space
Radiation
A material though which heat or electricity flows easily
Conductor
A material that slows or stops the flow of energy such as thermal energy electricity and sound
Insulator
Give off heat
Thermal energy
Make up the center of the atom called the nucleus
Protons &neutrons
The center of the atom is called the
Nucleus
Nuclear energy is a type of. Energy
Potential
Sound energy is a type of ————energy
Kinetic
Is a fast back and forth movement
Vibration
Energy moves from an object with higher temperature to an object with a lower temperature
Thermal
Temperature is measured with a
Thermometer
Conduction is when travels from the warmer object to the cooler object
Heat
Convection is when heat transfers through a
Liquid gas
Earth’s surface is warmed by from the sun
Radiation
Hot object radiate heat and the electric waves they produce are called waves
Infrared
The ability of a material to transfer heat is called a
Thermal conductors
Are materials that conduct heat poorly
Thermal insulations
