Physics – Heat

Here is an easy quiz on the topic of Heat (Physics). There are ten questions. The quiz is not timed.

Good luck.

1 / 10

What is the key distinction between heat and temperature?

Heat and temperature are the same

Temperature is the energy transferred between systems

Heat is the energy transferred between systems, while temperature measures average kinetic energy

Heat is a measure of temperature

2 / 10

Heat is transferred between objects due to:

Density difference

Volume difference

Temperature difference

Pressure difference

3 / 10

The cause of heat energy: The energy that we feel as heat arises from the random motion (and collisions) of molecules in gases or liquids. In the case of solids, it is the vibration of the molecules or atoms we feel as heat.

True.

False.

4 / 10

Convection is the transfer of heat through:

None of the above

Movement of fluids

Direct contact

Electromagnetic waves

5 / 10

The first law of thermodynamics, also known as law of conservation of energy, states that:

Energy transfer happens to make the temperature of the systems equal.

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted from one form into another.

Energy can be created and destroyed

Heat is the only form of energy

6 / 10

Heat is measured in:

Pascals

Watts

Joules

Newtons

7 / 10

Radiation is the transfer of heat through:

Movement of fluid particles

Movement of solid’s particles

Electromagnetic waves

Direct contact

8 / 10

What is thermal equilibrium?

The state in which two objects are with same heat energy but at different temperatures

None of the above

The state in which two objects exchange heat continuously

The state in which two objects in contact with each other no longer exchange heat and have the same temperature

9 / 10

Conduction is the transfer of heat through:

Sound waves

Movement of fluids

Direct contact between particles in a solid

Electromagnetic waves

10 / 10

Heat transfer can occur via:

Radiation only

Conduction, convection, or radiation

Convection only

Conduction only
