Best Answer

Heat is a form of energy. It can simply call heat energy or thermal energy or even refer to it as heat.

Because heat is form of energy, This question is like asking "What is energy in the form of energy". It is all heat is form of energy.

Edit: Heat is given off when energy is wasted. Take a light bulb for example. The newer eco-bulbs give off no heat, or very little heat, so they waste little to no energy at all. Normal bulbs, though, give off tons of heat, and are very hot to the touch. Those aren't eco because they waste energy, and give off heat.

Another Answer

Heat is defined as energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body. The term, 'thermal energy' is obsolete and has long been replaced by the term, 'internal energy' which describes the sum total of all the energies in a mass.
