What to Focus On

  • Heat is a form of energy.
  • Heat flows from a hot body to a cold body when they are in contact.
  • Heat flow stops when both bodies reach the same temperature.
  • SI unit of heat is joule.
  • Common units are calorie and kilocalorie.
  • 1 kcal = 1000 cal.
  • Temperature tells the degree of hotness or coldness.
  • A thermometer measures temperature.
  • Mercury thermometer works on thermal expansion of liquids.
