thermal energy

what is the definition for thermal energy.

• is used loosely in various contexts in physics and engineering. It can refer to several different well-defined physical concepts.

• is the energy by virtue of an object's position relative to other objects. Potential energy is often associated with restoring forces such as a spring or the force of gravity.

• an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated.

• is the quantitative property that must be transferred to a body or physical system to perform work on the body, or to heat it.

What is convection?

• When heat energy is transferred through a solid with direct contact.

• When heat energy is transferred through a gas or liquid.

• When heat energy is transferred throughout the air without contact

• When heat energy is heat energy and becomes heat energy because of heat energy thanks to heat energy. Not the answer.
