Molecules in warmer object will have more average kinetic energy of molecules compared to the molecules in cooler object. Therefore the energy will be transferred from the region of more to kinetic energy to a region of low kinetic energy of molecules until equilibrium is reached between both the objects. This is similar to the process of diffusion which dictates the flow of solute molecules from an area of its high concentration to an area of its low concentration.

What is energy that can move from one place to another because of differences in temperature?

Heat energy.


Why you calculate enthapy?

Generally enthalpy is analgous to the energy of a material at a particular temperature and pressure. It is calculated to determine the energy a material holds, or more often, enthalpy differences are calculated to determine how much energy is required to bring a material from one temperature and pressure to another temperature and pressure.


What happens when an object began to move more quickly with kinetic energy what happens to the temperature?

The temperature will increase.


What happens to the kinetic energy when temperature is changed?

When the temperature is increased the kinetic energy increases, and when it is decreased the kinetic energy decreases.


What happens to energy used for maintaining body temperature?

Thermal Energy


What happens to a stars nuclear energy generation change if the core decreases in temperature?

What happens to a stars nuclear energy generation change if the core decreases in temperature?


When there is more kinetic energy what happens to the thermal energy and temperature?

Molecules with a high temperature typically have a greater kinetic energy when compared to those with a lower temperature


How can you compare and contrast temperature and thermal energy?

Thermal energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the particles in a material. Heat is a form of energy transferred by differences in temperature. These are both forms of energy.


What is meant by the term heat?

Good question. It's important to distinguish between heat, thermal energy, and temperature. Temperature refers to the average kinetic energy of individual molecules (and in this sense is expressed in degrees Kelvin). Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object. Heatrefers to the transfer or flow of energy from one object to another because of differences in temperature.


What is the transfer of energy that happens when molecules bump into one another?

The transfer of energy that happens when molecules bump into one another is called heat conduction. This process occurs as high-energy molecules transfer some of their energy to lower-energy molecules through collisions, causing the overall thermal energy of the system to equalize.


Differences in thermal energy can be detected with?

infrared imagery


What is an explanation of heat?

Heat is a form of energy... noticeable only by the temperature differences
