Answer:

In most cases, the answer is yes: If you have two separate objects and they have the same measurable temperature, they also have the same thermal energy (heat). This is because thermal energy is defined as a type of kinetic energy, which in this case is the motion of particles on a microscopic level.

Step-by-step explanation:

All matter has thermal energy, even matter that feels cold. That's because the particles of all matter are in constant motion and have kinetic energy
