Temperature vs Heat

Cards (17)

  • Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the individual particles produces an effect we sense as warmth.
  • The quantity that indicates warmth with respect to some standard that is called temperature.
  • We can express temperature by a number that corresponds to its degree of hotness or coldness on some chosen scale
  • celcius' boiling point is 100 and it's freezing point is 0
  • Fahrenheit's boiling point is 212 and its freezing point is 32
  • Kelvin's boiling point is 373 and its freezing point is 273
  • Heat transfer is the direction of spontaneous energy transfer from warmer object to cooler object
  • Heat is the energy transferred from one to another due to temperature difference
  • Matter contains both potential and kinetic energy inside is called internal energy.
  • Heat flow depends on temperature difference, amount of material, & mass
  • Calorie is the amount of heat required to change temperature of 1 gram of water
  • Thermodynamics is the study of relationship between thermal energy, heat, & work
  • materials expand when temperature increases
  • Linear Thermal Expansion is when the temperature changes, the length is directly proportional to change of temperature and length
  • Area Thermal Expansion is when the temperature changes, the area is directly proportional to change of temperature and original area
  • Volume Thermal Expansion is when the change in volume is directly proportional to the original volume & change in temperature
  • Thermal Expansion is the tendency of an object to change its dimension either in length, density, area, or volume due to change of temperature
