How is thermal energy transferred between objects?

Back

Through the process of heat transfer.

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy?

Back

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles.

Front

Can two objects have the same temperature but different thermal energies?

Back

Yes, if they have different masses.
