Unit 2- Thermal Energy (Amplify)

Front

What is the condition for heat transfer between two objects that are touching?

Back

There is a difference in temperature between the samples.

Front

What happens to hot air when it makes contact with cold air?

Back

The hot air will lose kinetic energy.

Front

What type of energy does an object have because it is moving?

Back

Kinetic energy.

Front

In a Thermal Energy Simulator, if Sample A had less energy than Sample B at the start, what can be inferred?

Back

Sample A had less thermal energy than Sample B.

Front

How does mass affect thermal energy in objects?

Back

Objects with more mass have higher thermal energy.

Front

Define thermal energy.

Back

Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy?

Back

As temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the particles increases.

Front

What is conduction in the context of thermal energy transfer?

Back

Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials.

Front

What is convection in thermal energy transfer?

Back

Convection is the transfer of heat by the movement of fluids (liquids or gases).

Front

What is radiation in terms of thermal energy?

Back

Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves without the need for a medium.
