Describe the difference between temperature, internal energy and heat.
What is the average kinetic energy of translational molecular motion (how hot or cold something is compared to a standard) vs the total of all energy associated with the particles that make up a material (translational motion, rotational motion, bonds....), and the process where thermal energy is transferred from one object to another (sometimes connected to the thermal energy of an object).

Describe the sign conventions for convex and concave lenses - don't forget to include which ones are diverging and which ones are converging.
What is: converging: concave mirrors do is + as long as the object is real, di is + if the image is real (image is in front of the mirror surface), f is + convex lenses do is + if object is real, di is + if the image is real (image is where the light passed through), f is + Diverging: convex mirrors f is -, do is + if the object is real, di is always - (the image will be inside the mirror's surface) Concave lenses f is -, do is + if real, di is - if the image is on the same side as the object (the light bounced back instead of passing through to form the image)
