Thermal Energy Flashcards
is the total kinetic energy of moving particles of matter.
Thermal energy
is the potential and kinetic energies of its particles (atoms and molecules) that can be transformed to heat
Thermal energy
It is dependent on the mass of the object and temperature.
Thermal energy
It is dependent on the mass of the object and temperature.
Thermal energy
Thermal energy is dependent on the —— of the object and.
mass
temperature
The ——— the mass that accounts for the number of molecules and temperature of an object the ——— its thermal energy.
greater
greater
All those moving particles give the water in the pitcher ——— total kinetic energy, even though their average kinetic energy is less.
greater
On the other hand, the ——— in temperature initiates the transfer of thermal energy to the other object or system.
difference
The transfer or flow of thermal energy is called
heat energy (Q) expressed in Joules.
It is also known as the energy in transit which is measured using a calorimeter.
Thermal energy
Thermal energy is also known as the ——— which is measured using a calorimeter.
energy in transit
It is also known as the energy in transit which is measured using a.
calorimeter
The thermal energy transfers from — to —— objects or systems.
warmer
cooler
The transfer of heat stops if —— is reached registering the same temperature reading.
thermal equilibrium
If the object absorbs a —— amount of heat, kinetic energy and temperature —— and vice versa.
