THERMAL ENERGY |
is the total amount of K.E and P.E of the particles in matter |
|
All matter has |
thermal energy |
|
Air |
has thermal energy because the particles that make up air are moving |
|
Snow has thermal energy because the water molecules in snow |
vibrate back and forth |
|
Temperature |
is a measure of the average K.E of particles in matter |
|
Temperature indicates |
how warm or cold an object is |
|
Temperature is measured using |
a thermometer in degrees celsius or degrees fahrehnheit |
|
When an object is warmed both its thermal energy and temperature |
increase |
|
When an object gets colder both its thermal energy and temperature |
decrease |
|
Thermal Energy depends on mass but temperature |
doesnt |
