Why does thermal energy always move from an object with lower temperature to an object with higher temperature?

It doesn't. It's the other way round. Particles in the hotter object are vibrating faster than those in the cooler one. When they collide with each other energy is shared, increasing the temperature of the cooler object and decreasing that of the hotter one.

Thermal energy flows from what to what?
Higher temperature to lower temperature. Thermal energy will always flow down the energy gradient.
How does thermal energy always move?
From a higher temperature to a lower one.
Does temperature have a higher amount of thermal energy in a substance?
The higher of the temperature of a substance, the more thermal energy it has.
Does energy as heat flows from a lower temperature to a higher temperature?
Thermal energy that flows from a higher temperature to a lower temperature is called heat. Heat is energy that flows from one object to another, because of a temperature difference.
What is the transfer of thermal energy from an object of higher temperature to an object of lower temperature?
The increase in the kinetic energy of a material's particles from an object of higher temperature to one of lower temperature is known as heat transference.heat
What is the name for thermal energy that is transferred from a higher temperature to a lower temperature?
Thermal energy always flows from higher temperature to lower temperature. This is the nature of heat.
Thermal energy flows from what to what?
Higher temperature to lower temperature. Thermal energy will always flow down the energy gradient.
What is the name for thermal energy that is transfered only from a higher temperature to a lower temperature?
All thermal energy flows from high temperature objects to low temperature objects. This is the nature of thermal energy.
How does thermal energy always move?
From a higher temperature to a lower one.
What direction does thermal energy flow?
Thermal Energy always transfer from the higher temperature to lower temperature until both bodies reach the same temperature or in thermal equilibrium with each other.
Does temperature have a higher amount of thermal energy in a substance?
The higher of the temperature of a substance, the more thermal energy it has.
The higher the temperature of something the greater its?
Thermal Energy.

What indicate increase in thermal energy of the body?
Higher temperature.
Which piece is at a higher temperature?
The piececito with moré thermal energy
What movement of thermal energy from a substance with a higher temperature to one with a lower temperature?
Heat.
