| temperature | measure of the average kinetic energy of all particles in an object |
| thermometer | a device that measures temp |
| absolute zero | temp at which an objects energy is minimal |
| heat | transfer of energy from one object to other due to temp difference |
| conduction | transfer of energy through contact |
| convection | transfer of energy by fluid / consist of air or liquid |
| convection current | flow of fluid due to heated expansion followed by cooling and contraction |
| radiation | trasnsfer of energy by electromagnetic waves |
| conductor | material that easily transfers heat |
| insulator | poor energy conductor |
| specific heat | amount of energy transferred as heat- raise temp of 1 kg to 1 k |
