Thermal energy travels by conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction occurs when two or more objects of different temperatures are touching each other. The heat flows from the warmer object to the cooler object, until the objects reach equal temperatures. Convection is the transfer of thermal energy through a moving liquid or gas. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy though matter and space.

What is the definition for thermal energy for kids?
thermal energy is energy in the form of heat.
Heat as a form of energy?
heat is a form of energy because our body uses up of heat energy that needs in our body to stimulate the cold or warm temparature in our body
What source of energy does a radiator use?
its thermal energy because it has heat and a radiator to warm your feet uses heat so that is why its thermal energy.:)
What energy transfers or changes happen when using an immersion heater to warm water?
electrical energy is converted in the heatert to heat energy to warm the water
The movement of energy from warm to cool objects is?
heat transformatin
Rising warm air transports thermal energy?
conduction
Greenhouse gases keep earth warm by?
By trapping the heat rising from the warm earth and preventing it escaping back to space. By absorbing the heat during the daylight hours and releasing it during lower energy periods.
What is the energy that travels from warm?
Heat energy
What is the difference between heat and warm?
Heat is energy. Warm is a subjective temperature not as hot as hot.The movement of energy.
What does the energy give us for get us warm?
heat energy
What from of energy makes my car feel warm?
That is heat energy.
Rising air is called what?
Convection. Convection is the process where a fluid (liquid or gas) moves and transports heat due to hotter fluid rising and cooler fluid sinking due to differences in density.
What is the definition for thermal energy for kids?

Source of heat energy that keeps the surface of the Earth warm enough support what?
Source of heat energy that keeps the surface of the Earth warm enough support LIFE
Why is this conveyor belt important to organisms living in the oceans?
While it's not a "conveyor belt", the thermohaline conveyor transports heat, nutrients, etc., i.e., the Gulf Stream. It also keeps Europe somewhat warm as it transports warm water from the Equator to the North Atlantic.
