If a bathtub and a cup contain water at the same temperature which will have more thermal energy?

-- Temperature is the direct observation of the average kinetic energy of the
molecules in the substance.
-- If the tub of water and cup of water have the same temperature, then the
average kinetic energy of the molecules in each one must be the same.
-- The tub full of molecules needs more total energy than the cup of molecules does,
in order to average the same for each molecule.

True or false To maintain your body temperature your body converts chemical potential energy into thermal energy?
It is true that to maintain your body temperature, your body converts chemical potential energy into thermal energy. Thermal energy is energy that comes from heat.
The higher the temperature of something the greater its?
Thermal Energy.
Does temperature have an effect on the amount of thermal energy in a substance?
When the temperature might be increasing, thermal energy is increasing and it increases much faster when decreasing than when increasing so it's permanent energy and can never be reducing!
2 glasses of water have the same thermal energy must they have the same temperature explain?
How you can tell is the temperature between the two liquids. If one of the liquid's temperature is warmer than the other one, then that liquid has more thermal energy.
How can you tell whether one glass of water has more thermal energy than another identical glass of water?
How you can tell is the temperature between the two liquids. If one of the liquid's temperature is warmer than the other one, then that liquid has more thermal energy.
Does temperature contain any particles?
Temperature is a measure of the thermal energy of a system...thermal energy cannot be said to be a particle, but particles may have thermal energy.
Does matter contain thermal energy?
It does if its temperature is anywhere above zero Kelvin.
How are thermal energy and temperature similare?
Temperature is what is used to measure thermal energy The more thermal energy a substance has, the more warmer it will be. So when the temperature is high, there is a lot of thermal energy Thermal energy is just energy. It refers to the energy of the molecules. Temperature is just a measurement
How is thermal energy and temperature same?
They are not the same. "Thermal energy" is the same as "heat".
How are temperature and thermal energy related?
we use thermal energy by measuring temperature
How are thermal energy and temperature alike?
If you increase temperature you increase thermal energy.If you double the amount you have the temperature does not change but the thermal energy does.Temperature and thermal energy are the same since they both use kinetic energy. Temperature uses the thermal energy when the heat measures the average of the kinetic energy. The thermal energy uses the kinetic energy, when it's averged together with the kinetic enery and the others to make the thermal energy.==========================Answer #2:Wow !Temperature is to thermal energy as depth is to water.
Does a block of ice contain heat energy?
It depends upon the condition of the ice and the environment it is in. For example, a block of ice in room temperature does not give off energy - to the contrary, it absorbs energy as it melts. . But a block of ice at -5oC that is set in freezer that is -20oC will give off its thermal energy until the block of ice's temperature falls to the freezer's temperature.
How is sound energy and thermal energy alike?
Temperature is what is used to measure thermal energy The more thermal energy a substance has, the more warmer it will be. So when the temperature is high, there is a lot of thermal energy Thermal energy is just energy. It refers to the energy of the molecules. Temperature is just a measurement
When thermal energy is removed from matter what happens to its temperature'?
it is hot temperature but when thermal energy leaves the temperature is cool
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 temperature form thermal energy?
It doesn't, Temperature is a MEASURE of the thermal energy state of something.
How are temperature thermal energy and heat related?
Temperature,heat and thermal energy all deal with kentic energy.
