What is the transfer of thermal energy between two bodies which are at different temperatures?

Thermal energy can be transferred by conduction, convection, or radiation. The formulae for the rate of transfer - if that's what you are after - vary, depending on which type of transfer is predominant.

How is thermal energy different from temperature How are they similar?
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.
What is the equation for finding temperature when mixing equal volumes of water?
The result of mixing equal MASSES of water at different temperatures will be the mean of the two temperatures. Unless you are being very sophisticated and are taking the thermal expansion into account, the same will apply to volumes.
What equation do you use when it gives you 2 temperatures and 1 ml and you have to find volume?
An equation that gives the coefficient of thermal expansion of whatever the material is.
What is the idea of convection?
Hi! Basically convection is the transfer of thermal energy through fluids. Examples would be air and water.
How do you print a readable bar code?
the best way to print barcodes is either to a thermal printer (thermal transfer or thermal direct) or a laser printer. There are some new inkjet printers on the market (different than regular office inkjet) that can also produce very clear barcodes. The problem with printed barcode is that the print has to be very "clean" any kind of splatter between the line, will make it very difficult to read. The other part of this to create a barcode with human readable segment. This is the actual numbers/text/symbols that are the makeup of the barcode. Various labeling software allows you to add it above or below the code.
What term describes the transfer of energy between objects that have different average kinetic energies?
The transfer of energy between two objects at different average thermal kinetic energies (temperatures) is referred to as heat transfer. It is always called heat transfer, regardless of what kind of energy is being transferred.
How long does thermal energy transfer between objects?
Since different objects have different heat conductivity and different temperatures and heat capacities, the time can vary without limit.
Which of these terms means energy transferred between objects at different temperatures?
thermal
Heat is the transfer of thermal energy because of difference?
Heat is not the transfer of thermal energy. Heat is the thermal energy. What drives itacross a boundary between substances or objects is a difference in their temperatures.
How thermal energy travel?
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 name is given for the transfer of thermal energy from areas of high thermal energy to areas of low thermal energy?
This is the second law of thermodynamics. This law states that heat naturally flows from higher temperatures to lower temperatures.
What term describes the transfer of energy between objects that have different average thermal kinetic energies?
heat
What terms describes the transfer of energies between objects that have different average thermal kinetic energies?
heat
What is the difference between thermal and electric conductivity?
Electrical conductivity is flow of electrons between two different points having different electric potentials. Thermal conductivity is flow of electrons between two different points having different temperatures. Electrical Conductivity in solids, is purely based on number of free electrons (number of free electrons and holes in semiconductors). But thermal conductivity is based on number of free electrons and also phonons. Electrical conductivity in liquids and gases is also depends on number of free electrons but thermal conductivity in liquids and gases is because of molecular collision.
Thermal energy transferred between objects which have different temperature?
A transfer of heat (H) energy does not occur without a temperature differential. If the two objects had different amounts of H then a transfer would indeed occur. In this case heat would flow from a higher to lower temperature object.
When two substances in thermal contact starting at different temperatures reach the same temperature their condition of thermal balance is called thermal?
