Absolute zero is when the atoms of all matter will stop moving. It can't be further cooled once they stop.

1 Can the state of absolute rest or motion be defined for any object?

Absolute rest is commonly called absolute zero. To cool something by extracting energy it must be placed in an environment with less average energy than it contains; this requires the environment to be already at or below absolute zero, which requires something to make it that temperature. This thing must be at or below absolute zero as well... and we enter a causality loop where being able to do one thing requires it to have been done. Thus it is impossible.


Why can't scientists cool matter to absolute zero?

It is impossible to cool matter to absolute zero because of the third law of thermodynamics, which states that as you approach absolute zero, it becomes increasingly difficult to remove the remaining heat energy from a system. Additionally, quantum effects prevent particles from coming to a complete standstill at absolute zero.


What is meant by the term absolute zero Why can't an object actually be that cold?

Absolute zero is the theoretical temperature of an object that has no kinetic energy. This is 0 on the Kelvin scale which relates to -273.15oC. Nothing can actually reach this temperature as to achieve a kinetic energy of 0 Joules, the object would have to be removed from the universe entirely.


Can scientists cool matter to absolute zero?

No, reaching absolute zero (0 Kelvin) is theoretically impossible because it would require a complete absence of thermal energy. Scientists can get very close to absolute zero using various methods, such as laser cooling and magnetic cooling, but they cannot achieve absolute zero.


When a warm object is brought near a cool object the cool object will COOL OFF or REMAINED unchanged or evaporate or warm up?

When a warm object is brought near a cool object, the cool object will warm up slightly as it absorbs heat from the warm object. This is due to the transfer of thermal energy from the warm object to the cool object through the process of conduction.


When a warm object is brought near a cool object the cool object will blank?

Get warmer.


Can scientists cool matter to absolete zero?

No, scientists cannot cool matter to absolute zero, which is 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius. According to the third law of thermodynamics, it is impossible to reach absolute zero through any finite number of processes. However, researchers can get very close to this temperature, achieving temperatures just nanokelvins above absolute zero, where quantum effects become significant.


What will a cool object do when a warm object is brought near it?

The cool object will absorb heat from the warmer object, and warm up.


What happens to a cool object when a warm object is brought near a cool object?

The cool object will absorb heat energy from the warm object through a process called thermal conduction. This will cause the cool object to increase in temperature, while the warm object will decrease in temperature until thermal equilibrium is reached.


When a warm object is a brought near a cool object the cool object will?

it will do nothing except the ice will melt in your hand


What is a sub cool?

Below "cool."


When a hot object touches a cool object the particles in the hot object cause the particles in the cool object to?

transfer heat energy from the hot object to the cool object until they reach thermal equilibrium.
