Thermal Energy and Heat
Conduction
-
Insulators
-
Ex: wood, paper and plastic foam
-
-
-
Convection
-
-
occurs when a cooler, denser mass of a liquid or a gas replaces a warmer less dense mass of a liquid or a gas by pushing it upward.
Radiation
-
Ex: Visible light, microwaves, and infrared light

Measurement of heat
-
-
-
-
-
-
a thermometer measures the increase in temperature which is used to calculate how much energy is released(the amount is the number of calories)
-
Thermal energy
-
-
-
If it has many more particles, it has more energy
-
Temperature
-
related to the average kinetic energy of particles, while thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all the particles
