Since different objects have different heat conductivity and different temperatures and heat capacities, the time can vary without limit.

What term describes the transfer of energy between objects that have different average kinetic energies?
The transfer of energy between two objects at different average thermal kinetic energies (temperatures) is referred to as heat transfer. It is always called heat transfer, regardless of what kind of energy is being transferred.
Heat is the transfer of thermal energy because of difference?
Heat is not the transfer of thermal energy. Heat is the thermal energy. What drives itacross a boundary between substances or objects is a difference in their temperatures.
Does thermal energy moves?
Such energy can be transferred. Usually it will transfer from hotter objects to colder objects.
What is the thermal energy transfer?
Heat is a transfer of thermal energy.
What do you call thermal energy that moves between objects?
heat

What are the properties of insulating material?
Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes and materials.
What is the differece between thermal energy and heat?
Thermal energy is a specific type of energy that all objects have. Heat refers specifically to the TRANSFER of this type of energy. I believe this is similar to the difference between "mechanical energy" and "work" (where "work" refers to the transfer of such energy). However, the two terms are actually often used interchangeably.
What type of thermal energy transfer requires that objects touch?
There are different types of thermal energy like conduction, convection, and radiation. But the one that requires objects to touch is conduction.
Is heat the transfer of thermal energy from a higher temperature to a lower temperature?
The heat transfer is possible by conduction, convection and radiation.
What happens when two different temperature objects come in contact?

What is the thermal energy transfer?
