5.4 Measuring Thermal (Internal)Energy
The amount of energy in an object depends on:
1.Mass of the object
2.Temperature of the object
3.The nature of the material of the object
Specific Heat Capacity
Different materials have different capacities for holding thermalenergy

The rate of thermal conduction depends on thesubstance
The metal tray feels colder than the package because metalconducts energy more easily and more rapidly thancardboard does.

Thermal Conductors
Substances that rapidly transfer energy as heat
In general, metals are good thermal conductors.

Substances that slowly transfer energy as heat
Materials such as asbestoscorkceramiccardboard, and fibreglass arepoor thermal conductors (and therefore good thermal insulators).
