Thermal Energy
Across
- 2. A measure of the average energy of motion of the particles of a substance.
- 4. A state of matter with no definite shape or volume
- 7. the state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape (takes the shape of its container)
- 10. The ability of an object to transfer heat
- 12. The direct transfer of heat from one substance to another substance that it is touching.
- 14. a form of energy that flows from a warmer object to a cooler object
- 15. A material that allows heat and electricity to pass through it.
- 16. The total energy of all the particles of an object, also known as heat energy
- 17. scale The temperature scale on which zero is the temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter
Down
- 1. a material that conducts thermal energy poorly
- 3. Energy that is radiated or transmitted in the form of rays or waves or particles (usually through the air)
- 5. A form of matter that has a definite shape and volume
- 6. a material that conducts thermal energy well
- 8. A material that does not allow heat or electrons to move through it easily.
- 9. Transfer the movement of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object; convection, conduction, radiation
- 10. The transfer of thermal energy by the circulation or movement of a liquid or gas
- 11. scale The temperature scale on which water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100 degrees
- 13. energy of motion
