What is heat? What is the S. I. unit of heat?

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

Heat is a form of energy, which when absorbed by a body makes it hot and when extracted from a makes it cold. It is also defined as the total kinetic energy possessed by all the molecules of a body. The S. I. unit of heat is joule/kg kelvin.
