Temperature is a statistical measure of the level of agitation between molecules, related to the displacement of the kinetic energy of an atom or molecule.
In Physics, the temperature is related to the internal energy of a thermodynamic system.
The temperature is usually measured by a thermometer and indicates the degree of heat intensity in a given area. The atmospheric temperature of the Earth is the result of the electromagnetic waves that come from the Sun. The temperature variation depends on several factors, such as wind, air humidity, latitude, the angle of incidence of the solar radius on the Earth's surface, etc. Temperature revealed in weather records is measured by thermometers that are not exposed directly to the sun's rays. This is known as the temperature in the shade.
The notion of heat is often mistakenly associated with a higher temperature, while the notion of cold is associated with a lower temperature. In spite of this, the heat consists of the thermal energy that moves from a body with a higher temperature to a body with a lower temperature. This is an ephemeral process that ends when the two bodies in question reach thermal equilibrium.
An environment that has a temperature of 40 degrees conveys the sensation of heat. The lower the degree of temperature presented, the colder the environment.
Popularly, saying that a person is "hot" indicates that they have a fever. The normal human body temperature ranges from 36 to 37.5 ° C. An increase in these values indicates that body temperature has risen causing fever, which is usually the body's response to disease.
In the figurative sense, the temperature indicates the degree of tension or conflict at a given moment of an activity, for example, the political temperature.
