Thermal Energy

When I turn on my air conditioner I destroy the heat energy in the room. It is gone forever.

• true, because that is how it works

• true, because cold is stronger than hot

• false, because the molecules are still moving just as fast

• false, because I cannot destroy energy, only transfer it

Heat ALWAYS moves from

• cold to hot

• hot to cold

• it doesn't move

• we destroy it
