Thermal energy is also called as _?
Correct answer: D. Heat energy
- A. Internal energy
- B. Temperature of a body
- C. Kinetic energy
- D. Heat energy
Explanation
Correct option is D. Heat energy is another name for thermal energy. Its sources are the same as that of heat energy. Thermal energy is of three types or ways of transferring heat. Conduction Convection Radiation

About Thermal Equilibrium and Heat
Thermal equilibrium means that bodies in contact have the same temperature and no net heat flows between them. The topic distinguishes heat from temperature, uses the zeroth law of thermodynamics, and covers heat transfer, specific heat capacity, thermal expansion and the conditions for reaching equilibrium.
