HEAT VS TEMPERATURE

Heat is a form of energy. It is the Transfer of thermal energy from place to another place.it is measured in joules, kilojoules ,mega joules, calories, kilocalories etc it can be measured with the help of an instrument which is called calorimeter.according to law of conservation of energy ,energy  is neither created nor destroyed but it can be transformed from one place to another.there are different modes of transfer of heat from one place to another such as conduction, convection and radiation. All these modes have  own properties.conduction is happened only in solids and it is the transfer of molecules from one hotter region to cooler region as molecules gain kinetic energy and it happens in thermal conductor.the rate of conduction is quicker in copper than iron and has useful and harmful effect on our daily life. The handle of utensils are made up of plastics because they are bad conductor of electricity and heat.radiation is fastest mode of  transfer of heat from one place to another without any physical medium. It happens due to electromagnetic waves.convection normally happens in the case of gases with the help of convection current as warm air get rises due to decrease in density the cool air takes the place of warm air due to increase in density.it also has some useful and harmful effects on our daily life eg sea breeze and land breeze, heater, ventilators etc whereas Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of an object is called temperature. It is measured in celsius, Fahrenheit and Kelvin. The instrument used for the measurement of temperature is thermometer which is of different kind such as liquid in glass thermometer,mercury thermometer and alcohol thermometer. The clinical thermometer is used at home for the measurement of body temperature the normal body temperature is 98 degree celsius and 32 degree Fahrenheit. If scale is divided into 100 equal parts such scale is called celsius whereas 212 equal parts are called Fahrenheit.one kelvin is 273 degree celsius.
