Thermal energy is a quantity that can be measured in BTU or Calories. Heat transfer is just a method of transferring that energy from one place to another, or one part of a machine to another part. Heat transfer does not create any energy in itself.

Thermal energy is heat. Temperature is a measure of the concentration of heat energy.


What is he difference between temperature thermal energy and heat?

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance. Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all the particles in a substance. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy between two objects due to a temperature difference.


Heat is the transfer of thermal energy because of difference?

Heat is not the transfer of thermal energy. Heat is the thermal energy. What drives itacross a boundary between substances or objects is a difference in their temperatures.


How is heat related to thermal energy related can an object contain heat?

Heat is the transfer of thermal energy between two objects due to a difference in temperature. Thermal energy is the internal energy of an object due to the motion of its particles. An object can store thermal energy, but it does not "contain" heat in the same way since heat refers to the transfer of energy between objects.

What is the relationship among heat and thermal energy?

Heat is the transfer of thermal energy between objects due to a temperature difference. Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of particles in an object and is what determines its temperature. When heat is added or removed from an object, it changes the thermal energy and consequently the temperature of the object.
