Thermal Energy

3. the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance
6. a physical quantity that quantitatively expresses the attribute of hotness or coldness
9. the state of being stable
10. an instance of one moving object or person striking violently against another.
11. an uncharged elementary particle that has a mass nearly equal to that of the proton and is present in all known atomic nuclei except the hydrogen nucleus
13. an act, process, or instance of transferring
14. energy that comes from a source and travels through space at the speed of light.
15. the energy of motion, observable as the movement of an object or subatomic particle

1. the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink
2. A group of two or more atoms linked together by sharing electrons in a chemical bond
4. a physical quantity that quantitatively expresses the attribute of hotness or coldness
5. a substance which does not readily allow the passage of heat or sound.
7. a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids
8. stable subatomic particle occurring in all atomic nuclei, with a positive electric charge equal in magnitude to that of an electron, but of opposite sign
12. a state of balance between opposing forces or actions that is either static (as in a body acted on by forces whose resultant is zero) or dynamic (as in a reversible chemical reaction when the velocities in both directions are equal)
