It is seen that there is an effect of the increase in temperature within kinetic energy. When the temperature of a system is lowered, then the kinetic energy of the particle also decreases.

Difference between Temperature and Heat

Heat and Temperature are two different concepts, although they are studied together in science. The concept of Heat says that it is a form of energy but temperature, on the other hand, is a measure of energy. Heat is considered to be the overall energy of the motion of a molecule but the temperature is the average energy of the molecular motion. Heat can be said that as an amount of energy in the body but temperature means the measurement of the intensity of heat. Heat flows from the hotter object to the cooler object. The temperature rises when it is heated, but falls when it cools.

Measurement of temperature

The measurement of temperature is done using a Thermometer. It is seen that the thermometer is the specific instrument for the measurement of temperature. Liquid thermometer is the simplest one, they are thin glass tubes, and it is filled with mercury (Adeeb, Farhan & Al-Salaymeh, 2019).

Thermal expansion helps in the measurement of temperature to the Thermometers. In the time of measuring temperature, it is seen that change in the temperature is simply the change in the volume of the pquid. The mercury gets high when the temperature is increased and it is the most common process for measuring the temperature.

Temperature sensor

Temperature sensor is described as a Resistance Temperature Detector or it can also be called a thermocouple. It helps to collect data from a particular source and converts it into an understandable unit. A thermometer here is an example of a temperature sensor and it helps to measure the temperature of gases, pquids, and sopds. There are some other sensors of temperature such as Semiconductors, Infrared sensors, Thermocouples, Thermistors, and Resistor temperature detectors.

Scales of Temperature

It is seen that Thermometers helps to measure temperature and there are specific scales for measurement. Three common types of scales are- Kelvin, Celsius, and Fahrenheit. Kelvin scale is one of the most common scales and it is an absolute temperature scale and the lowest temperature is defined as 0K. The boipng point of water is 373.15 K. Fahrenheit scale contains the freezing point of water is 32ºF and the boipng point is 212ºF. Celsius scale ha the boipng point of water is 100ºC and the coopng point is 0ºC.
