Thermal energy can be defined as specific thermodynamic quantities as a part of energy transfer such as heat, which is a form of thermal energy flowing from hotter to colder objects. Temperature is a physical property of an object which specify whether the subject is hot or cold.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Difference between thermal energy, temperature and heat
<u>Thermal Energy</u>
Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of molecules bundled up in the object. This energy is the heat exerted by the object which forms its temperature.
<u>Temperature</u>
In technical terms, temperature is the average kinetic energies measurement of molecules and atoms, present in an object. Simply, we can say, temperature defines how hot or how cold is a substance. Temperature relies on the kinetic energy of particles.
<u>Heat</u>
Transfer of thermal energy from a hotter to colder objects. Heat is different from temperature. Temperature is the mark to define how hot a substance is whereas, heat is the flow of thermal energy.
