Help me.sue

Ms sue HELP ME PLEASE

Emma, please be patient for someone to reply. Ms. Sue normally doesn't do any of these type of science questions. Please wait for a science tutor like Dr.Bob222, Damon, Bobpursley, or Steve to reply.

Thanks, Brady.

It would also help, Emma, if you told us what you think the answers are.

No problem Ms. Sue!

I do agree with Ms. Sue, though. What are YOUR answers, Emma?

Potential energy

Temperature
Thermometer
Heat
Conduction
And convection

I only want to know if I got them right or witch ones I got wrong.

Please post your questions and your answers as a new question.

The total energy of motion in the molecules of a substance is called thermal energy or heat energy. This energy is a result of the random motion of particles within the substance.

The average amount of energy of motion in the molecules of a substance is referred to as temperature. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

A thermometer is a thin glass tube with a bulb on one end that contains a liquid, usually mercury or a colored alcohol. When the temperature of the substance being measured changes, the liquid in the thermometer expands or contracts, allowing us to read the temperature on a scale.

The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one is referred to as heat transfer or heat flow. Heat always flows from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature until both objects reach thermal equilibrium, where their temperatures are the same.

The direct transfer of heat from one substance to another substance that is touching is called conduction. In this process, neighboring molecules transfer energy by colliding, which results in the transfer of thermal energy.

The transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid, either liquid or gas, is called convection. When a fluid is heated, its molecules gain energy and become less dense, causing them to rise and be replaced by cooler, denser fluid. This creates a cycle of movement, resulting in the transfer of heat.

To summarize:
- The total energy of motion in the molecules of a substance is called thermal energy or heat energy.
- The average amount of energy of motion in the molecules of a substance is called temperature.
- A thermometer is a device used to measure temperature.
- The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one is called heat transfer.
- The direct transfer of heat from one substance to another substance that is touching is called conduction.
- The transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid is called convection.
