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

Conduction is the transfer of heat through:

Electromagnetic waves

Movement of fluids

Direct contact between particles in a solid

Sound waves

2 / 10

What is thermal equilibrium?

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

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

None of the above

3 / 10

Heat is measured in:

Joules

Newtons

Watts

Pascals

4 / 10

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

Energy can be created and destroyed

Heat is the only form of energy

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

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

5 / 10

Heat transfer can occur via:

Conduction only

Conduction, convection, or radiation

Convection only

Radiation only

6 / 10

Convection is the transfer of heat through:

Direct contact

Movement of fluids

Electromagnetic waves

None of the above

7 / 10

Radiation is the transfer of heat through:

Movement of fluid particles

Electromagnetic waves

Movement of solid’s particles

Direct contact

8 / 10

What is the key distinction between heat and temperature?

Temperature is the energy transferred between systems

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

Heat and temperature are the same

Heat is a measure of temperature

9 / 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.

False.

True.

10 / 10

Heat is transferred between objects due to:

Temperature difference

Volume difference

Density difference

Pressure difference
