Here's an analogy.  I love this one, and I think it describes those terms perfectly:

Just think of pouring water into a container, and how deep it gets.

You pour some water into a container.  How deep it gets depends on HOW MUCH you pour in, but also on HOW WIDE the container is.  One cup of water poured into a milk jug will raise the level much more than one cup of water poured into a swimming pool.

Thermal energy ... "Heat" ... is the stuff that pours in and out of something.  "Temperature" is how deep the heat energy is in the object.

If you pour 100 joules of heat energy into a metal marble, you'll raise its temperature a lot more than if you pour 100 joules of heat energy into a metal battleship.

How is thermal energy from the sun distributed on Earth ?
Mrac [35]
Conduction and convection both require some material substance
to move heat from one place to another, and there's none of that
between the sun and Earth. 

The only way for thermal energy to move from place to place with
nothing in between is by the process of radiation, and that's how
it gets here from the sun.

How far can a person run in 15 seconds if she runs at an average speed of 160 cm/s? State your answer in meters.
uysha [10]

Answer: distance = 24 meters

Explanation:

speed = distance / time

distance = speed x time

speed = 160 cm/s = 1.6 m /s     [ 100 cm = 1 m, 160 cm = 1.6 m ]

time = 15 s

distance = 1.6 m/s x 15 s = 24 m

A wave travels a distance of 60cm in 3s. The distance blw successive crests of thd wave is 4cm. What is the frequency?
schepotkina [342]
Data:
ΔS = 60cm
Δt = 3s
Vm = ?

Vm = ΔS/Δt 
Vm =  \frac{60}{3}
Vm = 20cm/s

We have:

Vm = v
ΔS = λ
Δt = T

v =  \frac{\lambda}{T}
20 = \frac{\lambda}{4}
\lambda = 20*4
\lambda = 80cm

Soon:

v = \lambda*f
20 = 80*f
80f = 20
f =  \frac{20}{80} simplify( \frac{\div20}{\div20} )= \frac{1}{4}
\boxed{f = 0,25Hz}
