A calorimeter uses the principle that thermal energy flows from hotter material to colder material until both reach the same .?
Many principles are used. Expansion of liquids. Production of thermo emf. Variation of resistance of conductors. As temperature changes certain physical properties change as mentioned above. Such changes are used to know about the temperature.
Thermal energy always moves from what to what?
From hotter to colder
What happens if we remove thermal energy to a liquid.?
It will get colder. It also might freeze.
What material poorly conducts thermal energy?
Thermal energy is the internal energy of a system in thermodynamic equilibrium by virtue of its temperature. A hot body has more thermal energy than a similar cold body, but a large tub of cold water may have more thermal energy than a cup of boiling water. Thermal energy can be transferred from one body, usually hotter, to a second body, usually colder, in three ways: conduction , convection, and radiation. Insulator
Does thermal energy moves?
Such energy can be transferred. Usually it will transfer from hotter objects to colder objects.

What is thermal conductivity of cast iron?
Thermal conductivity refers to the measure of the ability of a material to allow the flow of heat from its warmer surface to its colder surface. The thermal conductivity of cast iron is 80 Wm-1K-1.

Thermal energy always moves from what to what?
From hotter to colder
Where can thermal energy be stored if possible to be stored?
Thermal energy can't be stored in the long term. You can store it in the short term, by putting material that is hotter (or colder) than the surroundings within some thermal insulation. The problem is, no such thermal insulation is perfect - some heat will always escape, over time.
The transfer of thermal energy from a hotter to a colder substance is called?
Heat transfer
What happens if we remove thermal energy to a liquid.?
It will get colder. It also might freeze.
Is it possible to use colder things rather than hot things for thermal energy?
Yes. Heat sinks around computer processors are colder than the processors: they "remove" thermal energy from the processors and so stop them from overheating.
Why is thermal energy hard to store?
Heat has a tendency to flow from hotter objects to colder objects. This can be reduced with thermal insulation, but not entirely stopped.
Which of the following are elements of the COLDER principle (Select all that apply)?
all 4
Why is thermal energy so hard to store?
Heat has a tendency to move from hotter to colder substances. To store thermal energy, you need to keep an object hotter (or colder) than its surroundings; and there are no perfect insulators that stop the flow of heat altogether.
