  • Temperature
    it is the degree of hotness or coldness of an object
  • heat
    it is the energy which travels from high temperature to low temperature.
  • Heat
    Also called as thermal energy
  • Thermal Physics
    Study of temperature, heat energy and their relation matter
  • Celcius to Fahrenheit Formula
    F=F =(9/5)C+ (9/5)C +32 32
  • Farenheit to Celcius Formula
    C=C =5/9(F32) 5/9 (F -32)
  • Calorimetry
    Measuring Heat Energy
  • All matters expand when heated
  • Thermal Expansion
    is the tendensy to change in shape, area and volume in response to a change in temperature
  • Increasing Temperature means causes increases in volume for both solid and liquid materials
  • Thermal Equilibrium
    when two objects are said to have the same temperature
  • Conduction
    Tranfering heat throught solid materials
  • Convection
    Transfering of heat in a gas or liquid by means of currents heated fluid
  • Radiation
    Transfering of heat through electromagnetic waves
  • Calorie
    a unit of energy or heat
  • Calorie
    originally defined as the amount of heat required at a pressure of 1 standard atmosphere to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1° C
  • Specific Heat Unit
    J/kg C
  • Phase Change
    when a matter changes from one state to another
  • Melting
