What is thermal energy used for?
Thermal energy is the moment of atoms and molecules in a substance that causes heat.
When Heated air molecules in a hot air balloon soon carry thermal energy to the top of the balloon?
convection
What is the transfer of thermal energy by molecules bumping into each other?
The transfer of thermal energy by molecules bumping into each other is known as conduction. Thermal energy is energy that comes from heat.
Does a small balloon or a large balloon have more thermal energy?
I really don't know
What kind of energy does a hot air balloon have?
The hot air has thermal energy, and when the balloon is up in the air, it also has gravitational potential energy.

In dipole-dipole forces how thermal energy causes the molecules not to have perfect alignment?
Thermal energy increases the rotational or vibrational motion of molecules and because the intermolecules are not strong enough to hold them it changes their position to some extent and the alignment is
What is potential thermal energy?
Thermal potential energy is energy that is formed by heat and the sun.
What is the transfer of thermal energy by molecules bumping into each other?
The transfer of thermal energy by molecules bumping into each other is known as conduction. Thermal energy is energy that comes from heat.
What is the total kinetic energy of molecules present in the substance called?
THERMAL ENERGY
Does a small balloon or a large balloon have more thermal energy?

Is light thermal energy?
Thermal energy is not light. It is heat! Energy of heat and temperature of matter (more heat=more thermal energy=more movement of molecules) Temperature measures movement of molecules
Why molecules are always in motion not in rest?
Ordinary atoms and molecules will contain some thermal energy, and this causes them to bounce against each other. For this thermal energy to be removed, the temperature must be reduced to 0 K. Absolute zero. [note not deg K.]
What kind of energy does a hot air balloon have?
The hot air has thermal energy, and when the balloon is up in the air, it also has gravitational potential energy.
