matter and thermal energy
when you add thermal energy to matter, the matter starts moving faster.
When thermal energy is added the matter goes slower
thermal energy will always radiate to lower energy matter.
When you add thermal energy to matter, either the temperature will increase, or there will be a change in the state (phase) of matter, for example when ice melts.

Thermal Energy
Everything, all matter within existence is subject to the transfer of thermal energy. Thermodynamics help us to understand how matter will behave when undergoing a change in thermal energy.
thermal energy will always radiate to lower energy matter.
temperatures differ from thermal energy because differ because thermal energy is the total energy of all particles in an object and temperature is a measure of the average energy of random motion of particles of matter.
because thermal energy always flows from warmer matter to cooler matter
When thermal energy is taken away from matter particles move more slowly. When thermal energy is added to matter particles move faster.
a) heat b) temperature c) thermal energy d) all of these
when you add thermal energy to matter, the matter starts moving faster.
When you add thermal energy to matter, either the temperature will increase, or there will be a change in the state (phase) of matter, for example when ice melts.
