Temperature

From FIS Freestyle wiki

Monthly average surface temperatures from 1961–1990. This is an example of how climate varies with location and season

The quantity measured by a thermometer. Bodies in thermal equilibrium with each other have the same temperature.

In gaseous fluid dynamics, temperature represents molecular kinetic energy, which is then consistent with the equation of state and with definitions of pressure as the average force of molecular impacts and density as the total mass of molecules in a volume.

For an ideal gas, temperature is the ratio of internal energy to the specific heat capacity at constant volume.
