Thermal Energy - Heat Transfer Quiz

What is the measure of kinetic energy (movement of particles) within a system?

• thermal/heat energy

• kinetic energy

• physical energy

• motion energy

What is heat transfer?

• The direct transfer of heat between objects that touch.

• Heat moving from a warmer object to a cooler object.

• A material that does not allow heat or electricity to move through it easily.

• Energy due to motion

The direct transfer of heat between objects that touch

• Insulator

• Radiation

• Temperature

• Conduction

The transfer of heat through movement of fluids - liquids or gasses.

• convection

• conduction

• radiation

• matter

What is radiation?

• A tool used to measure temperature

• The degree of hotness/coldness of an object

• The transfer of heat by waves. Ex. Sun’s rays

A material that allows heat and electricity to pass through it

• Atom/Particle

• thermometer

• insulator

• conductor

What is an insulator?

• Smallest unit of matter. Building blocks of matter.

• A material that does not allow heat or electricity to move through it easily.

• Stored energy

• Anything that has mass or takes up space.

The degree of hotness or coldness of an object; the average amount of kinetic energy in particles of matter.

• Atom/Particle

• Density

• Temperature

• Volume

What is a thermometer?

• A tool used to measure temperature.

• The measure of how close particles are in a substance.

• Stored energy

• A material that does not allow heat/electricity to move through it easily.

What is kinetic energy?

• Stored energy.

• Energy due to motion.
