Respuesta :

The difference between heat and thermal energy is that thermal energy is not in the process of being transferred; it is not in transit, but remains as part of the internal energy of the system; heat, on the other hand, is energy in transit, i.e. energy in the process of being transferred from a hotter system towards another colder system.

sample responds: Heat is thermal energy that flows from a warmer substance to a cooler substance. Thermal energy is the part of internal energy that can be transferred.
