Can be expressed in terms of unit Calorie and Joule.
The calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water to 1°C.
THERMAL ENERGY
refers to the energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature.
the hotness or coldness of an object or system
INTERNAL ENERGY
refers to the total energy in a closed system of molecules, considering the kinetic and potential energies.
A hot object contains high amount of thermal energy and when this is transferred into a cold object, it is now called heat.
Heat is Thermal Energy in transit/transfer.
The direction of energy is always from a warmer object to a relatively cooler object.
Heat is a measure of the internal energy that has been absorbed or transferred from one body to another.
Heating – the process of increasing the internal energy.
Cooling – the process of decreasing the internal energy.
TEMPERATURE
is a measure of the degree of hotness or coldness of an object.
We can describe the temperature in terms of Celsius (C), Fahrenheit (F), Kelvin, and Rankine.
The instrument we used to measure this is the thermometer.
Internal energy is dependent on the amount of substance. The greater the amount of substance, the higher the internal energy.
Internal energy is also proportional to the temperature of the substance. Hence, giving off heat decreases the internal energy. It decreases the temperature as well.
CONDUCTION - is the process by which heat occurs through a medium from one point to another.
CONDUCTORS
Materials through which heat energy passes through
INSULATORS
Materials that do not allow heat to pass through
CONVECTION - is the process wherein thermal energy is transmitted from one material to another by the movement of heated particles of a fluid
The movement of liquids and gases to warmer region produces current.
Radiation involves the form of energy called radiant energy
radiant energy – energy that moves through space.
The body’s temperature decreases as it emits infrared radiation.
ELECTRICITY
It is also called electrical energy.
It is a collective term describing a phenomenon also associated with the interaction between electrically charged particles.
ELECTRICAL ENERGY
A form of energy that comes from electrically charged
bodies such as ions and electrons
Electric Charge is a fundamental property of matter. It is an intrinsic characteristic associated with atomic particles, the electron and proton.
NUCLEUS - is a core containing most of the mass of the atom in the form of protons and neutrons.
ELECTRON – negatively charged particle found outside the nucleus
PROTON – positively charged particle
NEUTRON – neutrally charged particle
Like charges repel, and opposite charges attract.
Triboelectric Effect is the phenomena of the electrical effects that arise from contact between two materials.
The process of rubbing two materials together and separating them to produce the below effect is called electrification or charging by contact.
CHARGING is a process by which an insulator or an insulated conductor receives a net charge.
Charging can be done by friction, conduction, and induction.
CHARGING BY FRICTION
the process in which the body gets charged when it is rubbed against another body.
CHARGING BY CONDUCTION
requires contact between a neutral body and a charged object.
also called charging by contact.
produces similar charges.
Charging by
A) conduction
CHARGING BY INDUCTION
produces opposite charges.
A body gets charged by a charged object without touching each other.
INDUCTION
the process by which an electrical conductor becomes electrified when near a charged body
RADIATION – is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic (EM) waves. It can take place in a vacuum.
