What is temperature?

  • Temperature is a measure of how fast matter is moving.

  • Solids have a low temperature because the matter moves slowly.

  • Gases have a high temperature because the matter moves quickly.

  • Scientists measure the temperature using a thermometer, and report their observations using degrees Celsius.

Heat Transfer

  • When two objects have different temperatures, energy will move from the hotter object to the colder object.

  • The movement from energy from a hot object to a cold object is called heat transfer.

  • Heat transfer will continue until the two objects have the same temperature.

Heat Transfer Types

  • Remember that classify means to divide into groups.

  • Scientists classify heat transfer to make it easier to study how heat is moving.

    • Conduction

    • Convection

    • Radiation

  • This classification lets scientists predict how temperatures will change.
