Thermodynamics: Temperature, Energy and Heat, An Explanation

This video explains the difference between temperature, internal energy and heat. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, internal energy is the sum of all the internal energy of the particles in a substance. This can include translation, rotational, vibrational and potential energy due to intermolecular forces. Heat is the flow of energy form areas of high temperature to areas of low temperature. Temperature is usually measured in Kelvin or degrees celsius. Heat and energy are measured in joules.

Having the "hot" text color in blue and "cold" text color as red confused me for a second

[fazalahad]

if in exam it is the question that [define heat and temperature .what is the difference between heat internal energy and temperature according to kinetic theory ] as a long question so did we write this as an answer of that one question

[Whokn]

Good, except you made a small mistake, you said heat rises because it is cooler where it is rising too, whilst that might be correct it is not the reason why heat rises, it is to do with the difference in densities of cool and hot heat which causes heat to rise, great video, just wanted to say that.

“I got this wrong in the last video, so I’ve got to get this right… the temperature, no excuse me heat…”

Please make videos about kinetic theory of gases, including mean-square speed, etc. and also about laws of thermodynamics

[triptibedia]

Heat energy flows from a hot body to a cold body so the internal energy of hot body decreases and that of cold body increases so the sun provides heat to the whole world so why doesn't its internal energy decrease or is it that it decreases but we cannot notice the change

[Charlie-jtuk]

If temperature is average KE why is the SI unit not J?

[tobinos]

If two different masses have the same temperature, how come they won't have the same internal energy since temperatures is directly proportional to internal energy?
I think they should have the same internal energy since Temperature is proportional

[tobinos]

Since Temperature is proportional to internal energy

thank you for clarifying the differences
