    Cell Practise: 1 Day 1 Main Points To Revise: Key Terms: Term Definition

    Uploaded by

    Dony Gregor
    The document summarizes key concepts in thermal physics including: 1) The kinetic theory explains the nature of solids, liquids, and gases in terms of molecule behavior and how temperature affects properties and state changes. 2) Thermal energy is transferred by conduction, convection and radiation and affects properties of matter. 3) Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids flow freely but have fixed volume, and gases fill their container and have no fixed volume. Temperature, heat energy, and thermal energy are also defined.

    --- How the kinetic theory explains the Term Definition


    nature of solids,liquids and gases.
    Molecule A tiny particle consisting of one or more atoms.
    --- How to explain the behaviour of
    solids,liquids and gases in a wide range of Particle Any small piece of a substance, it could be one
    practical situations from everyday life. Molecule or billions of molecules.

    ---- how temperature is measured Thermal Physics The branch of physics that study temperature , heat
    energy and their relation to the matter.
    ---- how the thermal energy affects the Temperature It is the degree of hotness or coldness of an object
    properties of solids,liquids and gases and and can be measured by thermometer.Temperature
    their change of state. can be expressed by Celsius (oC) or Fahrenheit (oF)
    or K scale.
    ----- how thermal energy is transferred by Heat Energy It is the energy that travels from high temperatures to
    conduction, convection and radiation. low temperature in a matter.It is also called thermal
    or internal energy.It is measured in joules (J).
    Thermal Energy Energy that flows into or out of a body by
    conduction,convection or radiation.
