Whatever temperature you want the mass to have, the more mass there is, the more

heat energy you'll have to pump into it in order to raise it to that temperature.

Or the more heat energy you'll have to pump out of it in order to cool it to that temperature.

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.


What is the thermal energy in an object?

Thermal energy is pretty much the heat in an object. However different parts of the object can have different temperatures, so thermal energy is the average of all that. The formula for thermal energy is: q(change in the thermal energy) = m(mass) x c(specific heat (the amount of energy needed to raise 1 kg of an object 1 K)) x delta t(change in temperature)


Can you add thermal energy to an object without increasing its temperature?

yes-increase its mass


Does thermal energy affect mass?

no it does not thermal energy has no affect on mass


What is The total energy. Of the particles of an object?

The total energy of an object depends mainly on the mass of the particular object and the bond formation, and conditions such as temperature, pressure etc.


What three factors affect thermal energy?

raising of object temperature, the mass, specific heat


The measure of the quantity of matter that an object contains is called?

The "amount of matter" is a popular - and not very precise - term for the object's mass.


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


The amount of thermal energy stored in a object depends on?

The amount of heat energy in an object depends on three things : it's temperature, it's mass, and the material it's made from.


How is it possible that something can have a high temperature but very little thermal energy?

Thermal energy is a product of two variables; the temperature, and the mass. If two objects having the same mass were heated to the same temperature, they would have the same thermal energy. If an object weighing ten grams was heated to 1000º C, it would have less thermal energy than an object weighing 2 tons, heated to 100º C. To demonstrate this, imagine the amounts of ice each of the above objects could melt.


Thermal energy depends on what two factors?

I would say that an object's thermal energy depends on four factors: its mass, its temperature, its heat capacity, and any phase changes, for example from solid to liquid.I would say that an object's thermal energy depends on four factors: its mass, its temperature, its heat capacity, and any phase changes, for example from solid to liquid.I would say that an object's thermal energy depends on four factors: its mass, its temperature, its heat capacity, and any phase changes, for example from solid to liquid.I would say that an object's thermal energy depends on four factors: its mass, its temperature, its heat capacity, and any phase changes, for example from solid to liquid.


What is a large object at the same temperature as a smaller one has more or less thermal energy?

Thermal energy depends on mass, temperature and specific heat capacity of the material. Larger means, is that in mass? If so then thermal energy would be more in larger compared to that smaller at the same temperature provided both are made up of the same material.
