Yes, heat flows from areas of greater concentration to lower concentration. One of the primary laws of thermodynamics explains heat flow via conduction, convection, or radiation.

What is the energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one referred to?
Energy in transit from a hotter body to a cooler body is called HEAT.
Heat flows from a hotter body to a cooler body?
Heat is the transfer of energy. There is a flow of high kinetic energy to places of low kinetic energy. Thus in simpleton terms, yes, heat flows from a warm body to a cool body.
Is heat energy that passes from a hotter object to a cooler one?
Yes, you are correct. Heat is defined as energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body.
When two objects of different temperature are in contact heat energy will flow from the hotter to the cooler object?
Yes, that is correct.
What can Thermal energy do?
Thermal energy (or heat) flows from a hotter body to a cooler one, and not the reverse
Does heat flow cooler or smaller object?
Heat flow's from cooler objects.
Heat is transferred from?
hotter to cooler areas?
The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one?
The law says that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form to another.... And energy always from higher potential to lower potential... Since hotter object is at high potential and cooler object at lower potential, the heat energy will flow from hotter to cooler object.
How do you heat flow between two objects?
Heat energy travels from a hotter object to a cooler/colder object until both objects reach the same temperature.
Why hotter a substance faster it cools?
A hot substance will pass on heat to a substance at a cooler temperature. If it was surrounded by an even hotter substance it would be "given" heat. Heat can only flow from hotter to colder, just as water flows from higher to lower ground. If the temperature difference between the substances is great, then heat will pass more quickly, but if the difference is very slight, then the flow of heat will be very much slower.

Can heat transfer through radiation from colder to hotter body?
Yes, heat DOES transfer from the colder to the hotter body but there is a NET heat transfer from the hotter to the colder body.
