Why can an object still be seen when it is at absolute zero?
zavuch27 [327]
<span>As the temperature goes down, the chaotic motion (velocity) of atoms start decreasing. If the temperature hits the absolute zero (which, in reality, is impossible to achieve), the atoms of the body would freeze, making the body still and stiff. One thing to note here is that the atoms do not get destroyed when the temperature reaches the absolute zero. That is the reason why the object can still be seen when it is at absolute zero.</span>

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Because heat is a path function or the energy in transit.

Explanation:

  • It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat because the heat is a path function and not a property of the system. It is the energy in transit which can be encountered only when it crosses the system boundary.
  • Heat is the energy in transit of a matter which flows by the virtue of temperature difference. The heat energy in a body is stored in the form of kinetic energy of the molecules which gets converted into heat that we know as the responsible factor for the rise in temperature usually.
