Heat is energy that is transferred between objects at different temperatures; it flows from a high to a low temperature. Chemical and physical processes can absorb heat (endothermic) or release heat (exothermic). The SI unit of energy, heat, and work is the joule (J). Specific heat and heat capacity are measures of the energy needed to change the temperature of a substance or object.

For an object moving in a straight line, the kinetic energy is one-half the product of the mass and the square of the speed: If the two billiard balls mentioned above were studied in outer space, where friction due to their collisions with air molecules or the surface of a pool table would be negligible, careful measurements would reveal that their total kinetic energy would be the same before and after they collided.

(If we leave them in contact long enough, they will reach thermal equilibrium, but that is different from being in thermal equilibrium when they first touch.) If we have a system A, and we find that it is in thermal equilibrium with another system B, and also with another system C, then we know without doing the experiment that B and C are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.

The work W that a force F does on an object is the product of the magnitude F of the force, times the magnitude d of the displacement, times the cosine of the angle θ between them. In symbols, W=Fd cos θ. The SI unit for work and energy is the joule (J), where 1 J=1 N⋅m=1 kg m2/s2. The work done by a force is zero if the
