Energy flows from a hotter object to a cooler object through a process called heat transfer. This transfer can occur through three main mechanisms: conduction (direct contact), convection (through a fluid), and radiation (electromagnetic waves). The energy flow continues until both objects reach thermal equilibrium.

What is the energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one referred to?

The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one is referred to as heat transfer. Heat transfer occurs due to the temperature difference between the objects and always flows from higher temperature to lower temperature to reach thermal equilibrium.


What is the energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler object referred to as?

conduction


What is the energy transfered from a hotter object to a cooler object referred to?

conduction


Does thermal energy flow from cooler to hotter objects?

No, thermal energy flows from hotter objects to cooler objects as heat always moves from areas of higher temperature to lower temperature, seeking equilibrium.


What can Thermal energy do?

Thermal energy (or heat) flows from a hotter body to a cooler one, and not the reverse


Would a hot object emit more radiation than a cooler object?

Yes, a hotter object will emit more radiation than a cooler object. This is due to the relationship between temperature and the amount of thermal energy emitted as radiation - the hotter an object is, the higher the frequency and energy of the emitted radiation.


The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler object?

it called heat transfer!


The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one?

The law says that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form to another.... And energy always from higher potential to lower potential... Since hotter object is at high potential and cooler object at lower potential, the heat energy will flow from hotter to cooler object.


Is heat energy that passes from a hotter object to a cooler one?

Yes, you are correct. Heat is defined as energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body.


Can thermal energy be cool when its hot?

Yes. But a cooler body has less energy than a hotter object


When 2 objects are in contact the hotter object will transfer heat to the cooler object by?

conduction, with heat flowing from the hotter object to the cooler object through direct contact. It is driven by the temperature difference between the objects, with the faster-moving particles in the hotter object transferring some of their kinetic energy to the slower-moving particles in the cooler object.
