Guided Notes: Temperature, Thermal Energy, and Heat

Front

Heat transfers from hot to cold until both objects are the ________ temperature.

Back

same

Front

______________ transfers heat in a circular motion (current).

Back

Convection

Front

_____________ measures the average kinetic energy of the particles that make up matter (in any state).

Back

Temperature

Front

True or False: The particles that make up a solid ice cube are not moving (have no kinetic energy).

Back

False

Front

"The total energy of all the particles in an object" is known as __________.

Back

Thermal Energy

Front

What is the process called when heat is transferred through direct contact?

Back

Conduction

Front

What is the term for the energy that is transferred from one object to another due to a temperature difference?

Back

Heat

Front

What is the SI unit of temperature?

Back

Kelvin (K)

Front

What happens to the temperature of a substance when it absorbs heat?

Back

It increases.

Front

What is the relationship between thermal energy and temperature?

Back

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles, while thermal energy is the total energy of all particles.
