Temperature And Heat

Question 1

What is Temperature?

Answer 1

Temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is.

It indicates the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.

Question 2

What is Heat?

Answer 2

Heat is the energy that is transferred between substances due to a temperature difference.

It flows from a hotter object to a cooler one.
