http://www.ck12.org Chapter 18. Thermal Energy
Think Critically
- Compare and contrast external and internal combustion engines.
Points to Consider
In this chapter, you read that thermal energy can travel in waves by radiation. You can learn more about waves in
the next chapter.
- What other forms of energy travel in waves? (Hint:How does sound energy travel?)
- Think about waves in the ocean. How do the waves move? How do you think they carry energy?
