| heat | thermal energy that is transferred from one object to another when the objects are at different temperatures |
| conduction | occurs when particles in a material collide with neighboring particles |
| radiation | energy transferred by electromagnetic waves |
| convection | transfer of thermal energy by movement of molecules from one part of a material to another |
| conductor | any material that easily transfers heat |
| specific heat | amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 KG of that substance by 1 degree C |
| thermal pollution | increase in temperature of a body of water by adding warmer water |
| heat transfer | heat always moves from warmer objects to cooler ones |
