1. Temperature, Thermal Energy, and Heat

2.  Thermal Energy – The total energy (potential and kinetic) of all of the particles in an object.  The greater the thermal energy … the greater the kinetic energy.

3.  Heat – Thermal energy that is transferred from a warmer object to a cooler object.  Example: A cup of hot tea has thermal energy. Heat is transferred from the cup to your hand.

4. Think Pair Share  Describe the flow of heat from one object to another.

5. The Flow of Heat

6. Temperature  Temperature – A measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in matter.  The higher the temperature of the particles, the more kinetic energy they have.  Temperature is measured using a thermometer.

7. Temperature Scales ScaleBoiling PointFreezing Point Fahrenheit212 degrees F32 degrees F Celsius100 degrees C0 degrees C Kelvin373 degrees K273 degrees K Absolute Zero – when particles stop moving occurs at 0 degrees K.

8. Flow Map  Create a flow map that shows the transfer of thermal energy from the sun to an ice cube in a cup of water.
