Explain whether or not the following statement is true: If the thermal energy of an object increases, the temperature of an object must also increase.
It is not true. The increase in thermal energy may increase the potential energy so that the temperature remains unchanged.

The transfer of thermal energy by collisions between more energetic and less energetic particles.
What is Conduction
400
___________ occurs in fluids. Rising of warmer fluid and sinking of cooler fluid forms a con- vection current.
What is Convection
400
Which of the following is the name for thermal energy that is transferred only from a higher temperature to a lower temperature? A) potential energy B) kinetic energy C) heat D) solar energy
What is C. Heat
400
________ states that it is impossible for heat to flow from a cool object to a warmer object unless work is done.
What is The second law of Thermodynamics
500
The change in thermal energy can be calculated by what equation?
What is Q=M(T(f)-T(i))C
500
This states that the increase in thermal energy of a system equals the work done on the system plus the heat added to the system.
What is The first law of thermodynamics
500
Sitting in the shade reduces the heat transferred to you by ____________
What is Radiation
500
On a hot day a friend suggests that you can make your kitchen cooler by leaving the refrigerator door open. Explain whether leaving the refrigerator door open would cause the air temperature in the kitchen to decrease.
It would nor cool the kitchen. The thermal energy from the kitchen that is transferred to the refrigerator coolant would be transferred back to the kitchen from the condenser coils.
