- Q2Fahrenheit, Celsius, KelvinTemperature Scales30s
- Q3The total energy of all the particles of an object.Thermal Energy30s
- Q4The transfer of thermal energy from a warmer object to a cooler object.Heat30s
- Q5Extremely small units of matter.Particles30s
- Q6The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree celcius. Different materials require different amounts of energy to change the temperature.Specific Heat30s
- Q7The direct transfer of heat from one substance to another substance that it is touching.Conduction30s
- Q8The transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid. Warm air will raise and cool air will take it's place.Convection30s
- Q9A non-solid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to move past each other, as in a gas or liquid.Fluid30s
- Q10A current caused by the rising of heated fluid and sinking of cooled fluid.Convection Current30s
