heat transfer
movement of heat from one object or place to another
conduction
heat transfer through touch
convection
heat rising while cooler, denser fluid sinks
radiation
movement of heat through waves
thermal energy
energy of heat
mechanical energy
energy of movement/motion and position
electromagnetic energy
light energy that travels in waves
electric energy
energy from moving electrons
conductor
allows heat and electricity to move easily
insulator
prevents movement of heat and electricity
thermal equilibrium
when two objects stop moving heat because they are at the same temperature
