Heat
Temperature
1.Heat is a type of energy that causes a person's body to feel hot or cold. The temperature of a body is the parameter which indicates how hot or cold it is.
2.Heat is defined as the flow of energy from a warm to a cooler object. The average kinetic energy of the particles in an object is measured by temperature.
3.Heat energy is transferred from a higher-temperature material to a lower-temperature substance. The motion of particles increases as the temperature rises
