Thermal energy (heat)
Thermal energy (heat)
The average kinetic energy of water molecules goes up. Fevers cause the internal temperature to rise which increases kinetic energies.
The energy is in the form of sound waves, which are moving air molecules, a form of kinetic energy.
It is internal energy that drives atoms or molecules in a random manner
No. Molecules have the lowest average kinetic energy in a solid. Plasma is the highest average kinetic energy.

thermal
The energy is in the form of sound waves, which are moving air molecules, a form of kinetic energy.
The internal energy of air can be increased by adding heat to it. When heat is added to air, the energy of the air molecules increases, causing them to move faster and have higher kinetic energy. This increase in kinetic energy results in an increase in the internal energy of the air.

temperature is the average kinetic energy of a particle
Heating increase the kinetic energy.
The relationship between kinetic energy of molecules and their physical state is simple. The higher the kinetic energy the faster the molecules move. The fastest moving molecules are gaseous and the slowest moving molecules are solids.
The total kinetic and potential energy of the molecules of an object is thermal energy.
The average kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object is the temperature.
