About this document
Understanding Thermal Energy Concepts by Rendrab G. Loleb is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Thermal energy is energy possessed by an object or system due to the movement of particles within it. It is a form of kinetic energy that results in temperature, which can be measured with a thermometer. The faster particles move, the higher the temperature. Examples of thermal energy include heat from the sun, hot chocolate, and a stove heating up milk on it through particle absorption. Thermal energy is used for heating homes and water, cooking food, drying clothes, powering appliances, and more.
