The transfer of energy as heat from one substance to another through direct contact.
What is Conduction?
100
The measure of the average amount of kinetic energy of all the particles in an object.
What is temperature?
200
The energy of an object that is due to it's motion.
What is Kinetic energy?

What is convection?
200
Equally spaced units between two points.
What is degrees?
300
The energy that an objects has due to it's position, condition, or chemical composition.
What is Potential energy?
300
Matter in which particles move freely and avoid physical contact.
What is gas?
300
The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.
