Does temperature contain any particles?
Temperature is a measure of the thermal energy of a system...thermal energy cannot be said to be a particle, but particles may have thermal energy.
Which energy increases as temperature increases?
The thermal energy.The thermal energy.The thermal energy.The thermal energy.
What do rivers ponds streams glaciers and icebergs all contain?
Water
Does a block of ice contain heat energy?
It depends upon the condition of the ice and the environment it is in. For example, a block of ice in room temperature does not give off energy - to the contrary, it absorbs energy as it melts. . But a block of ice at -5oC that is set in freezer that is -20oC will give off its thermal energy until the block of ice's temperature falls to the freezer's temperature.
Does thermal energy depend on the amount of a substance?
Thermal energy is heat. More heat is more thermal energy.
What does heat energy mean?
Hot bodies contain thermal energy, this is measured in calories or BTU
Does temperature contain any particles?

What does the sun contain that it can burn anything in seconds?
A lot of thermal energy.
Are there any caves in icebergs?
No in the conventioal sense though icebergs may contain crevasses.
Does matter contain thermal energy?
It does if its temperature is anywhere above zero Kelvin.
Which would contain the greatest amount of thermal energy?
substances in gas form
In the phrase 'icebergs contain' is contain plural or singular?
Here it is plural since the subject icebergs is plural.Verbs forms that are used with plural words (ending in S) will normally not end in S, and vice versa (e.g. icebergs contain; an iceberg contains).
Why is dangerous to put a spray can near thermal energy?
spray is flammable as it contain alcohol inside it and when anyone put a spray near thermal energy then alcohol may get to it's flaming point by thermal energy and may caught fire!
What ocean contain icebergs?
The Arctic Ocean
Why the sauce on a hot pizza burns your mouth but the crust of the pizza does not burn your mouth?
Because the sauce has thermal energy in it, so the crust does not contain thermal energy .When you heat up the pizza energy is transferring from the microwave/stove into the pizza, but not the crust.
What kind of energy does fuel contain?
Fossil fuels contain chemical potential energy, which is released as thermal energy when they burn. Nuclear fuel which can undergo fission contains energy by virtue of the change of mass which occurs when the nucleus is split into fragments, initially this is released as kinetic energy which is absorbed in the fuel and released as thermal energy.
Does an object that feels cold to the touch contain thermal energy explain your answer?
Yes because it repells
