What is the term for the materials that have very low thermal energy resistance?
superconductors
What is the term for materials that have very low thermal and energy resistance?
superconductors
Difference between heat energy and internal thermal energy?
Heat is thermal energy in transit. This process is carried out naturally between two material systems which are at different temperatures.Thermal energy is the energy of a body(or material system) has due to the movement of its particles.In other words, "bodies do not have heat, they have thermal energy".CommentThe term, 'thermal energy' is obsolete; it is now called 'internal energy'.
What is the term for the measure of thermal energy in the atmosphere?

What happens when removing Thermal Energy from gold?
Removing thermal energy (or, to be accurate INTERNAL energy since in thermodynamics thermal energy is a deprecated term) will usually cause it to get cooler. If it is near a phase boundary it may, instead cause some of it to change phase (solidify from liquid for example). Since electrical resistance is dependent on temperature, it will also lower the electrical resistance.
What term is used to describe how well various conduct thermal energy?
thermal conductivity The term for how substances conduct thermal energy is thermal conductivity.
What term refers to the total kinetic energy of the particles in a material?
Thermal energy is the term for total kinetic energy in a substance, according to a 5th grade science book. There may be other forms of energy in a substance, but thermal energy is the total kinetic energy.Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample.
How does a thermometer help when comparing the energies of particles?
A thermometer measures the amount of thermal energy a material has. This thermal energy is related to the vibrational and rotational energy the particles in the material have. By using the thermometer to measure the temperature of a material you are, in effect, measuring the amount of energy the particles of that material have.
Where can thermal energy be stored if possible to be stored?
Thermal energy can't be stored in the long term. You can store it in the short term, by putting material that is hotter (or colder) than the surroundings within some thermal insulation. The problem is, no such thermal insulation is perfect - some heat will always escape, over time.
What is the unit of thermal resistance?
Thermal resistance is the resistance of a substance or material to the conduction of thermal energy, or heat. For stuff at the high end of the scale, that is, for stuff having a whole lot of thermal resistance, we might use the term thermal insulator.
Can thermal energy be stored in food?
No. In general, there is no way to store heat energy (thermal energy) long-term.
What term describes material that keeps heat from moving?
This material is a thermal insulator.
