Heat-
|
The difference in temperature when energy is transferres between objects
|
|
Temperature-
|
Proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules in an object
|
|
Specific heat-
|
How much energy is required to raise an objects temperature
|
|
Temperature moves from-
|
High to low
|
|
Convection
|
T
ransfer of energy by movement of a fluid with different temperatures (hot air rises cold air sinks) |
|
Conduction
|
Transfer of energy as heat when molecules collide
|
|
Radiation
|
Transfer of energy by electomagnetic waves (the sun)
|
|
Insulator
|
Gains and loses heat slowly (plastic, stryfoam)
|
|
Conductor
|
Gains and loses heat quickly (metals)
|
|
Kinetic energy
|
As the kinetic energy of a substance increases the temperature increases
