Define Thermal Energy.?
Thermal Energy: Substance that has energy from the movement of its particles.
Can you define temperature and heat?
Temperature is the amount (or lack thereof) thermal energy contained in a mass. Heat is a type of energy. also known as thermal energy.
Does heat travel from cooler to warmer matter?
In thermodynamics, heat is defined as the energy in transfer between a system and its surroundings. In practice we consider the flow from the higher energy state to the lower energy state. In the case of thermal energy, from the body with the higher thermal energy (warmer) to the body with the lower thermal energy (cooler). In general, however, you may define the flow in either direction you wish, though if you define it as from cooler to warmer, the magnitude would be negative.
Water expands as it freezes can you define a coefficient of volume expansion for the freezing force?
The coefficient of the thermal expansion of water is equal to .00021. Water expands by 9% of its volume when it freezes.
What happens to the temperature of a substance when you prevent gain or loss of thermal energy?
If you define "thermal energy" as heat, and the "substance" is not affected by any energy that increases or decreases its temperature, by definition, nothing will happen to its temperature. If the substance reacts to electromagnetism, light or other radiation, it may increase or decrease its temperature, depending on the nature of the substance and its reaction to those energies. Note: See Discussion question.
What is metal define?
A solid material that is typically hard, shiny, malleable, fusible, and ductile, with good electrical and thermal conductivity.
Define electrical conductivity?
Conductivity is the inverse of resistance. Since Ohm's Law states that current is voltage divided by resistance, it also states that current is voltages times conductivity.
Define Thermal Energy.?
Thermal Energy: Substance that has energy from the movement of its particles.
Inventor of thermal bomb?
You would have to define what a "Thermal bomb" is, since that is not a standard term used in ordnance. There is a Thermal Bomb in some of the Star Wars stories- sorry- not real.
Define the three methods of thermal energy transfer?
Conduction, convection, and radiation.
Can you define temperature and heat?
Temperature is the amount (or lack thereof) thermal energy contained in a mass. Heat is a type of energy. also known as thermal energy.
Define thermal stress and thermal strain?
Thermal stress ( and strain) arrises at situations, when there are some area with diffrent temperature in the same body. Or at situatiom - one konstruction part restricts thermal expansion ( dilatation ) another part. Or - two parts (f.e. austenit - ferrit steels ) are in welded connection.
Does heat travel from cooler to warmer matter?
In thermodynamics, heat is defined as the energy in transfer between a system and its surroundings. In practice we consider the flow from the higher energy state to the lower energy state. In the case of thermal energy, from the body with the higher thermal energy (warmer) to the body with the lower thermal energy (cooler). In general, however, you may define the flow in either direction you wish, though if you define it as from cooler to warmer, the magnitude would be negative.
What states that the two system which are in thermal equilibrium with a third system are in thermal equilibrium with each other?
Zeroth law of thermodynamics: If two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third system, they must be in thermal equilibrium with each other. This law helps define the notion of temperature.
Can work done on a system decrease its thermal energy?
Yes. As an example: if you define a refrigerator as your system, the work done on the system causes heat to be expelled from the system to the surroundings. The net heat expelled will be equal to the work input plus the decrease in its thermal energy.
What is the Define temperature?
Temperature is a measure of the warmth or coldness of an object or substance with reference to some standard value. The temperature of two systems is the same when the systems are in thermal equilibrium.
Water expands as it freezes can you define a coefficient of volume expansion for the freezing force?
The coefficient of the thermal expansion of water is equal to .00021. Water expands by 9% of its volume when it freezes.
