General Physics
100

This is the most commonly used temperature scale in the United States

Fahrenheit (0F) 

100

This is the term used to describe temperature that is 0 Kelvin

Absolute Zero

the lowest theoretical temperature, at which the motion of all particles ceases; the temperature equals 0 K, -273.15 °C, or -459.67 °F.

100

This device is used to measure calories

Calorimeter

A calorie is the amount of energy required to raise one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

200

This temperature is the boiling point of water in degrees Celsius (oC) 

100oC

Which is 212oF

200

This is the freezing point of water in degrees Celsius (oC)

Zero (0oC) 

In Fahrenheit, the temperature would be 32oF

300

This process is how we describe the transference of thermal energy OR transferring heat from one object to the other

Conduction

the transfer of thermal energy between particles of matter that are touching

300

What measurement (or letter) completes the equation: 

? = oC + 273

K - Kelvin

The Kelvin or “Absolute” temperature scale is the scale often used by chemists and physicists. It is based on the temperature at which all molecular motion ceases.

400

This is the invisible fluid that was theorized to be found in heated objects more so than objects that are cold

Caloric  

when an object was heated, an invisible fluid called “caloric” was added to the object (first theory)

400

This tool allows us to measure temperature by reaching thermal equilibrium with an object

Thermometer 

The liquid inside a thermometer expands to match the temperature of the object

400

As the temperature inside a closed space increases, so does this

Thermal Energy

There is greater thermal energy inside an oven due to its limited space and volume, which is why you don't get burned when the hot air is released from the oven

500

These rays can cause sunburns on our skin in a form of solar radiation

Ultraviolet Rays

500

This is always transferred from an area with a higher temperature to an area with a lower temperature

Thermal Energy

500

Heat transference stops when two objects meet the same temperature, otherwise known as reaching what
