It is measured in joules (J)
The measure of the amount of heat in a material is its temperature. Temperature indicates the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a material. The higher the temperature, the more heat energy the material contains.
A measure of heat energy can be done easily using a thermometer. This will measure the amount of thermal energy transferred.
Heat is the AMOUNT of energy, Temperature is the CONCENTRATION of heat energy. For example; An iceberg (a big one) will have more heat energy than a cup of coffee (fresh and hot).
Heat is thermal energy. Temperature is the measurement of average kinetic energy of the particles which compose the matter being tested. Temperature is a relative measure of how hot or cold something is measured on a scale. Temperature is a measure of how much heat energy an object has.
A measure of the heat required to raise the temperature of a substance
Thermal energy is heat. Temperature is a measure of the concentration of heat energy.

Temperature is not a direct measure of the heat energy content of an object, but it is a measure of the average kinetic energy of its particles. Heat energy refers to the total energy of all the particles in an object, while temperature is a specific measure of the average energy per particle.
The measure of the amount of heat energy in the atmosphere is called temperature. Temperature is a reflection of the average kinetic energy of the particles in the air. Warmer temperatures indicate higher levels of heat energy.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, not the total heat energy. Heat energy is the total energy associated with the movement of particles in a substance. Temperature is one way to quantify the amount of heat energy present in a system, but it is not the same as measuring the total heat energy.
No. Temperature is a measure of heat, heat is the actual kinetic energy inside an object. Just like a road is not a foot, water is not a gallon. A saying attributed to the philosophy (or lack) of Zen Buddhism describe it well: 'mistake not the finger pointing for the moon.'No. Heat is the energy stored inside something. Temperature is a measurement of how hot or cold something is. An object's temperature doesn't tell us how much heat energy it has. ~Explainthatstuff~yes.
Temperature measures relative energy of an object. It does not measure heat. The amount of heat (energy) depends on the size of the object, the nature of the material / its heat capacity.
