Heat & Temperature
Energy that moves between two objects just because one is warmer than the other.
What is Heat?
The smallest single piece of a material.
What is a particle?
Heat moving through direct physical touching.
What is conduction?
Heat keeps moving between hot and cold things until they reach this balanced state.
What is thermal equilibrium?
This blocky sandbox game released a major 1.21 update called "Tricky Trials" and remains one of the best-selling games of all time.
What is Minecraft?
Temperature measures this average energy of moving particles in an object.
What is average kinetic energy?
When things cool down, particles slow down and pack closer together, becoming this.
What is compact?
Heat moving through waves without anything touching.
What is radiation?
Once things reach thermal equilibrium, this amount of heat keeps flowing between them overall.
What is zero (or no net heat flow)?
It’s the powerhouse of the cell, responsible for generating most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions.
What is mitochondria?
The total energy inside an object or system.
What is Thermal Energy?
When things heat up, particles speed up and spread further apart, becoming this.
What is less compact?
Heat moving through liquids or gases where warm parts rise and cool parts sink.
What is convection?
At thermal equilibrium, every part of the system has this same measurement.
What is temperature?
In 2024, this Pixar sequel became the highest-grossing animated film of all time, introducing new emotions like Anxiety and Envy to Riley's mind.
What is Inside Out 2?
Since all tiny particles move, this is true about which objects have thermal energy.
What is do all objects have thermal energy?
Whether something is a solid, liquid, or gas depends on how much of this movement energy its particles have.
What is kinetic energy?
Heat always flows naturally in this direction.
What is from warmer to cooler?
When a hot object touches a cold one, heat flows to the cold one until this happens.
What is they reach the same temperature?
This is the smallest continent by land area, but it's also the only one that is a single country, famous for kangaroos and the Outback.
What is Australia?
Words like "hot," "warm," and "cold" aren't exact measurements; they are based on this.
What is relative?
A specific material with uniform traits that you can see, touch, or measure.
What is a substance?
In liquids and gases, convection happens because warm areas rise and cool areas do this.
What is sink (or fall)?
If two objects start at the exact same temperature, this much net heat moves between them.
What is zero?
In Rick Riordan's popular book series, this teenage demigod discovers he is the son of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea.
What is Percy Jackson?
