PS3-3 Thermal Energy Review

What is the difference between temperature and thermal energy?

• Thermal Energy=Average Kinetic Energy
  Temperature=Total Kinetic Energy
• Thermal Energy=Total Kinetic Energy
  Temperature=Average Kinetic Energy

If there are 45 molecules of water in Beaker B how would you find the thermal energy?

• 20 x 20 is the thermal energy
• 20 is the thermal energy
• 45 x 20=total thermal energy

How can Beaker B have a more thermal energy but a lower temperature?

• Beaker A has more thermal energy because its temp is 10 degrees higher
• Thermal Energy is the average so you have to add up every particle and divide by how many there are
• Thermal Energy is the total, so you have to add up 20 for each particle
