Why does thermal energy depends on temperature?
Thermal energy relies on temperature because it uses the heat to produce energy.
Name an energy that relies on burning?
Thermal pertains to heat . Thus Geothermal, thermonuclear, etc. all energy deriving from heat has a thermal component. Thermal pertains to heat . Thus Geothermal, thermonuclear, etc. all energy deriving from heat has a thermal component.
What is the movement of energy from warmer object to a cooler object?
the movement of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object is called heat transfer
Are energy and heat synonymous concepts?
Heat is a form of energy. Therefore they are not synonymous as whilst all heat is energy, not all energy is heat.
Why does burning wood have radiant energy?
Burning wood is a chemical reaction called oxidization. By the application of heat the elements in the wood are rapidly oxidized, combined with oxygen from the air. The resultant energy is heat energy, heat energy has three forms: radiant heat - where the heat travels in a straight line from one surface (the flame or the wood) to another surface, in a straight line of sight. Convection heat - where the heat is carried by a fluid, the air, from one surface to another. (The flame becomes visible when the air is heated to incandescence[visible light]), the surface can be air molecules or solid materials. conduction - molecular transfer of heat from surface to surface by contact. Such as the heat transfer through the wood(the wood heats up). Heat energy always has these three forms. *note: a flame is only superheated air or gasses that have become incandescent. Incandescence is a conversion of heat to light. Light is a radiant energy that can be transformed to heat energy when it is absorbed by a material.

What is the name of an energy resource which uses heat from underground rocks?
An energy resource which uses heat from underground rocks is known as geothermal energy. This is considered to be the best form of green energy.
What does the term solar mean?
Solar is a term used to define anything that relates to the sun. Solar panels and heat, relies on energy from the sun.
What information do you obtain through your senses?
Color, texture, scent, sound, and taste are some types of information that you get through your senses. You could probably also say intuition, depending on how you define your senses.
How is sound energy and light energy alike?
firstly both are type of energies. secondly, both energies can be used to obtain heat energies. thirdly both can be detected by human senses.

What device produces heat automatically when it senses that there is no light and no heat?
infeared
What is an example of a piece of machinery or equipment that does not contain a chemical energy source?
Wind power and hydroelectric systems do not involve chemical energy sources. Nuclear power relies on the break down of radioactive elements to create heat.
What do you call a camera that senses heat?
Infrared, perhaps...
How does the the process of convection rely on conduction?
The air directly above the Earth's surface is heated by conduction. Warm air is then circulated through the atmosphere by convection currents.
Do animals have six senses?
the roof of a cat's mouth has a tiny hole under were their nose is that lets them "Taste The Air"
