What else can I help you with?
When you are walking on a cold day what is some of the energy in your body being used for?
It is used to keep your body temperature at a constant temperature
How are thermal energy and temperature similare?
Temperature is what is used to measure thermal energy The more thermal energy a substance has, the more warmer it will be. So when the temperature is high, there is a lot of thermal energy Thermal energy is just energy. It refers to the energy of the molecules. Temperature is just a measurement
What happens to energy used for maintaining body temperature?
Thermal Energy
What type of energy from food is used to maintain body temperature?
The energy from food used to maintain body temperature is known as thermal energy or heat energy. This process is essential for maintaining a stable internal body temperature, also known as thermoregulation, and allows the body to function efficiently.
Why doesn't the temperature change fast during a phase change?
Basically because there is energy needed for the temperature to rise or become lower, but energy is also needed to change the phase, so instead of the energy being used to change the temperature, it is being used to change the phase, therefore temperature does not change.
What temperature scale must be used to compare temperature and kinetic energy?
An absolute scale, such as Kelvin.
Is joule used on temperature scales?
No. A joule is a unit of energy within the SI system.
How much energy is released when a substance is cooled to its original temperature?
When a substance is cooled to its original temperature, no energy is released. Cooling a substance typically involves removing energy from the substance, but this process does not generate energy. The energy removed is used to lower the temperature of the substance.
Where is the heat energy going when a substance is boiling?
The energy is used to maintain the temperature at the boiling point.
What is the difference between temperature and thermal eenergy?
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, whereas thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all the particles in a substance. Temperature is a specific measure on a scale, while thermal energy is a more general concept encompassing the total internal energy of a system. Temperature is an intensive property, meaning it does not depend on the size of the system, while thermal energy is an extensive property, meaning it is proportional to the size of the system.
Temperature is the flow of energy?
No, temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles of a substance. Thermal energy is a term sometimes used to refer to the internal energy present in a system in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium by virtue of its temperature, or heat.
Where all the heat energy is going when a substance is boiling?
The energy is used to maintain the temperature at the boiling point.
