Best Answer

Energy directly relates the the temperature of a substance. The more energy in is proportional to a higher temperature. The inverse is also true. When changing states you must use the formula Q=ML where Q is the energy in Jules, M is the mass in grams and L is the latent heat (fusion or vaporization) of the substance. This determines how much energy is needed to change state.

How are solid and gas related?

Solids and gases are both forms of matter. Solids are the state of matter when the molecules of a substance do not contain much energy and therefore are not in very motion and remain together in solid form together. Gas is the state of matter when molecules contain much more energy so that they are very active and constantly collide and drive each other a part making a gas not very dense.

Where will the God Particle be found?

The god particle or the higgs bosom will be fund within Gravity's Magnetism fields...magetism is part of gravity in a smaller scale- yet as anti-matter also known as dark energy is part responsible for the appearance of expansion of the universes' matter -- so is dark energy anti-matter part of magnetism and gravity. the god particle field is within magnetism's gravity there you'll find also dark energy or anti-matter... as well as the binding power of the higgs bosom particle.

Does kinetic energy fuel a drought?

No, droughts are caused when the normal or expected rainfall doesn't happen. This can be just a normal weather variation, of it might be part of the changing climate. It has nothing to do with kinetic energy, which is the energy from motion.
