What is kinetic energy?

Back

The energy an object has due to its motion.

Front

What is thermal energy?

Back

The total kinetic energy of all particles in an object.

Front

What is absolute zero?

Back

The theoretical temperature at which all particle motion stops, equivalent to 0 Kelvin.

Front

What is the difference between heat and temperature?

Back

Heat is the transfer of thermal energy, while temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles.

Front

What is the Kelvin scale used for?

Back

It is used to measure temperature in scientific contexts, starting at absolute zero.
