Front

If a swimming pool and a cup of tea have the same temperature, which has more thermal energy?

Back

The swimming pool because it has more mass.

Front

What is convection?

Back

The transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids and gases).

Front

What is radiation?

Back

The transfer of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves.

Front

How does temperature relate to thermal energy?

Back

Temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles, while thermal energy is the total energy of all particles in a substance.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.

Front

What is an example of conduction in everyday life?

Back
