Temperature<br />
• measure of the average amount of kinetic energy<br />
ü higher temperature = larger average kinetic energy<br />
• Heat flows from the matter that has high thermal<br />
energy into matter that has low thermal energy.<br />
ü until they reach the same temperature<br />
ü Heat is exchanged through molecular collisions between<br />
the two materials.
