What has more heat energy an iceberg or hot tea?

It surely depends on how big the iceberg is ,as a really big iceberg contains a lot of thermal energy and much more than a liter of hot water.


What is the difference between heat and temperture?

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).


What are the ways that forging metal can be classified by heat?

There are many ways that forging metal can be classified by heat. There is lots of energy released and lots of energy required to forge metals, therefore, it can be classified by heat. Heat is basically a gain in energy.


Which has more heat energy the ice sculpture or a lighted match?

First note that "thermal energy" is a term that is long since obsolete. The correct term is "Internal Energy". "Thermal energy" was a term that was in use when people thought of energy as being some kind of fluid called "caloric" that was transferred between things at different temperatures. With that said: an iceberg has more internal energy when compared to a hot cup of coffee mainly due to the variance in size. Total internal energy is not necessarily determined by the presence of heat but the mass of the molecules present.


Factors affect the heat in the appliances?

there are lots of factors that affect heat one of it are the mechanical and thermal energy and other forms of energy


Does free energy lost as heat ever serve a useful function?

If you have use for the heat, it does. And fortunately, there are LOTS of uses for heat.


Which contains more heat an iceberg or a pot of boiling water?

"More temperature" is incorrect grammar. A pot of boiling water (probably; it depends on the pressure) has a highertemperature than an iceberg, if that's what you were trying to ask. However, unless it's quite small, the iceberg likely has more heat energy simply by virtue of having a much larger volume.


A drop of hot water has ---- energy than a huge iceberg?

Definitely LESS energy than a huge iceberg.


What are the importance of heat energy?

Heat Energy is in everything. The sun provides heat for everything, even our bodies produce heat. Some other things that produce heat energy are: lights, computers, televisions, toasters, Phones, heaters, fridges and LOTS more.


Which is not an example of electrical energy?

There are lots of other types of energy, e.g. sound energy, gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, heat energy, etc.


Which has more heat an iceberg of a pot of boiling water?

Iceberg.Heat is anything above absolute zero (-273 degrees C).It is the total energy of molecular motion in a substance while temperature is a measure of the average energy of molecular motion in a substance. Heat energy depends on the speed of the particles, the number of particles (the size or mass), and the type of particles in an object. Temperature does not depend on the size or type of object. For example, the temperature of a small cup of water might be the same as the temperature of a large tub of water, but the tub of water has more heat because it has more water and thus more total thermal energy.The iceberg is a huge object with a lot of mass or volume than a pot of water.Therefore due to the massive size of the iceberg the amount of heat (even though it is not as 'hot' as the boiling water) is greater.


A lamp turns into what kind of energy?

A typical lamp would convert electrical energy into light energy. And lots of heat too.
