Thermal energy (heat)
sera ulo
temperatures differ from thermal energy because differ because thermal energy is the total energy of all particles in an object and temperature is a measure of the average energy of random motion of particles of matter.
people use thermal energy to cook and heat our bodies and for hot air balloons
1 BTU (british thermal unit) of heat energy will change the temperature of 1 pound of water by 1 degree Fahrenheit. If you are talking about 1 pound of water, since this is a change of 100 deg f, it would require 100 BTU. 2 pounds require 200 BTU. 3 pounds require 300 BTU. etc.
That is called the specific heat.
Friction can cause kinetic energy to change into thermal energy

Thermal energy cause thermal decomposition of a compound; the bonds between atoms are weakened.
no
It involves a loss of thermal energy.
The formula for thermal energy is mc(deltaT) equals thermal energy, which means that multiplication of change in temperature by mass and specific heat gives you the thermal energy.
A liquid can expand when thermal energy is absorbed which is known as thermal expansion, but the thermal energy is not enough to change the liquid's state. When there is enough thermal energy, the liquid may change to a gas if the particles move fast enough to escape the liquid or it may change to a solid if the thermal energy is released from the matter.
you have to wear thermal clothing, then pour water over yourself, then grab a fork and stick it in the toaster. thermal energy :)
