Aug 19, 2020 at 0:11 | comment | added | the4naves | Thanks! I think some of my confusion came from me trying to imagine heat transfer as a series of elastic collisions between atoms, but doing so using thermal energy. As a physical explanation, would it be somewhat correct to say that because object a will have a higher temperature, and therefore higher kinetic energy, that that higher energy leads to more heat transferring collisions? | |
