What is Kinetic Energy?
|
The energy of an object's motion
|
|
|
What is temperature?
|
Measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter
|
|
|
Potential Energy
|
Stored energy in an object due to its position or state
|
|
|
Thermal Energy
|
Total energy in all of the particles in a solid, liquid or gas
|
|
|
Heat
|
Amount of thermal energy that transfers from an area of higher temperature to an area with lower temperature
|
|
|
Three types of heat transfer
|
Conduction, Radiation, Convection
|
|
|
Conduction
|
§ Transfer of heat from one substance to another within a solid by direct contact of particles
|
|
|
Convection
|
-Transfer of heat within a fluid and with the movement of fluid from one place to another
- Transfers matter as well as heat (unlike conduction) |
|
|
Radiation
|
- High-energy rays and particles emitted by radioactive sources
