  • Energy
    Capacity to do work or produce heat, encompassing both motion-based and position-based forms.
  • Kinetic Energy
    Form associated with the movement of particles, contributing to overall thermal energy.
  • Potential Energy
    Form related to the position or arrangement of particles within a system.
  • Thermal Energy
    Sum of all kinetic and potential energies of atoms in a substance, underlying both heat and temperature.
  • Temperature
    Measurement reflecting exclusively the average kinetic energy of particles in a material.
  • Heat
    Transfer of thermal energy from a region of higher temperature to one of lower temperature.
  • Celsius
    Metric unit for measuring temperature, often serving as a bridge between other temperature scales.
  • Fahrenheit
    Temperature scale commonly used in the United States, connected to Celsius by a specific formula.
  • Kelvin
    Absolute temperature scale starting at zero, directly linked to Celsius by a fixed numerical offset.
  • Conversion Formula
    Mathematical relationship enabling calculation between different temperature units.
  • Average Kinetic Energy
    Mean value of the motion energy of all particles in a sample, directly measured by temperature.
  • Unit
    Standard quantity used to specify measurements such as temperature, including Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
  • Flow
    Direction of energy movement, always proceeding from higher to lower temperature in thermal processes.
