What 3 energy transfers come a burning candle?
Three main things come from a burning candle: light, heat, Thermal energy x
Which process transfers thermal energy by contact?
This proess is called conduction. The other processes are convection and radiation. Convection is the transfer of energy through movement, such as boiling water. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through a medium or space, such as the sun heating the earth.
What are three mechanisms of energy transfer?
There are many mechanisms of energy transfer, assuming you simply mean transferring energy to or through something. Here are a few:Radiation as electromagnetic radiation (e.g. UV light from the sun hitting your skin and causing a sunburn transfers electromagnetic energy from the sun to your skin)Physical collisions (e.g. a car hitting a tree and causing it to break transfers kinetic energy from the car to the tree)Thermal conduction (e.g. heat moving from your warm hand to a cold ice cube transfers molecular vibrational energy from your hand to the ice cube)Electrical conduction (e.g. current in a wire transfers electrical energy through a circuit)Thermal convection (e.g. a warm air current rises over a cold one due to its lower density, transferring heat energy from one part of the atmosphere to another)
How does the particle theory relate to the thermos?
thermal energy is energy caused by friction friction is when two or more objects touch kinetic energy is when somthing is falling after you realesed potential energy that's all i can tell ya
How is heat different from thermal energy?
There is no particular difference between heat and thermal energy. Heat is a form of thermal energy. Since thermal energy is energy from heat, heat and thermal energy are basically the same thing.
What process transfers thermal energy through matter directly from particle to particle?
conduction
What poorly transfers in thermal energy?
Thermal energy poorly and slowly transfers in liquids
What terms defines something that transfers thermal energy efficiently?
Something that transfers thermal energy efficiently is called a conductor.
How is particle movement related to thermal energy?
when a particle moves it rubs against other particle's causing thermal energy
Radiation transfers thermal energy by?
thermal energy will always radiate to lower energy matter.
Which term defines something that transfers thermal energy efficiently?
Heat transfers thermal energy efficiently from one source to another. The movement of particles when heated results in this efficiency.
What is the thermal energy that's transfers?
Thermal energy can be transfered with three ways Conduction,Convection Radiation
The sun transfers thermal energy by the process of?
Radiation
How is energy related to particle movement?
when a particle moves it rubs against other particle's causing thermal energy
Can you make thermal energy?
No. The law of conservation of energy states that energy can not be created or destroyed. However, energy transfers can result in thermal energy.
Kinetic energy plus particle attraction?
Thermal Energy
What do you call the total energy of a particle in a substance?
Thermal energy
