Describe how energy is transferred between two objects at different temperatures, and how they reach thermal equilibrium.

Energy is transferred as heat when one object comes in contact with another object at a different temperature. The object with the higher temperature transfers energy as heat to the object with the lower temperature. They transfer the heat back and forth until they reach thermal equilibrium.
