The thermal energy of any substance is the product of its specific heat and the temperature difference between it and the surroundings. So if you increase the temperature you directly increase the thermal energy, in proportion to the difference between its temperature and ambient temperature.

∙ 11y agoYes, it's direct proportional to it.
This is however not true for the specific heat capacity, which is specific for a certain mass of material (mostly specific for one kg).

∙ 10y agoyes,because there will be just heat transfer if theres a change in temperature but also depends on the mass or amount of a material

Does thermal energy affect mass?
no it does not thermal energy has no affect on mass
What three factors affect thermal energy?
raising of object temperature, the mass, specific heat
How does mass effect thermal energy?
The mass has quite a big influence on the kinetic energy, cause its a factor in the formula: 1/2mv2
How would density affect thermal energy?
All substances have a so called Specific Heat which defines the thermal energy possessed relative to water, which has 1 calorie per gram per degC.So it is the mass of the sample of the material that determines its thermal energy content, not its density.
What two things affect thermal energy?
Its temperature and its specific thermal capacity
Does thermal energy affect mass?
no it does not thermal energy has no affect on mass

How does temperature affect energy?
Thermal energy is heat. More heat is more thermal energy.
How does an increase in total energy of the particles in a substance affect the thermal energy of the substance?
How does an increase in the total energy of the particles in a substance affect the thermal energy of the substance.
How would density affect thermal energy?
All substances have a so called Specific Heat which defines the thermal energy possessed relative to water, which has 1 calorie per gram per degC.So it is the mass of the sample of the material that determines its thermal energy content, not its density.
How do you convert Mass into thermal energy?
You generally need a catalyst or a mechanism to convert the energy. For example to convert fuel (a mass) into thermal energy, oxidizer and a spark are needed.
What is the formula for thermal?
The formula for thermal energy is mc(deltaT) equals thermal energy, which means that multiplication of change in temperature by mass and specific heat gives you the thermal energy.
What two things affect thermal energy?
Its temperature and its specific thermal capacity
How is temperature and thermal energy different?
Temperature is when the heat measures the average of the kinetic energy Thermal is averged together with kinetic engery, and all the others, to make thermal energy
How does the increase in thermal energy of the cylinder relate to the mass of the falling object?
Thermal energy is generated by the friction with the air (air resistance), it does not depend on the mass but the surface area of a falling object.
How will the flow of thermal energy affect the cocoa?
because thermal energy always flows from warmer matter to cooler matter
