HEAT TEMPERATURE AND THE TRANSMISSION OF HEAT
INDEX Heat Temperature Thermometer The transmision of heat Heat conductors Heat insulators
HEAT The transfer of energy from one body to another as a result of a difference in temperature or a change in phase.
TEMPERATURE ďƒ’
Temperature is the measurement of how cold or hot something is.
THERMOMETER
A thermometer is an object that measures temperature.
TRANSMISION OF HEAT ďƒ’
The transmisson of heat happens because heat can be transmitted through certain materials.
HEAT CONDUCTORS Heat conductors are materials that transmit heat quickly. Examples: metals.
HEAT INSULATORS Heat insulators transmit heat very slowly. Examples: cork, glass, plastic, wood, and wool.
