How fast molecules are moving is dependent on the amount of kinetic energy the particle posses. The more kinetic (movement) energy the particle has, the fast it is moving. Also keep in mind that temperature is the average kinetic energy of a bunch of molecules (for instance, your coffee this morning). As your heat up your coffee, you are increasing the amount of movement occurring within the mug, while cooling it down will slow the movements of the particles.
Increase in temperature = increase in average kinetic energy = fast moving particles

Measures how fast air molecules are moving?
A thermometer. Temperture is the measure of the kinetic energy, Aka speed, of molecules.
How fast are molecules in a refrigerator moving as compared to a freezer?
in the refrigerator the molecules are a little slow but freezer is almost stiff
How fast are molecules in the air moving?
Temperature has a big effect on how fast air molecules travel. Air molecules move faster in hot weather and they move slower in cold weather.
Why does a porous canvas bag with water cool when slung on the outside of a fast-moving car in hot weather?
Evaporation is a cooling process. The water molecules that escape the surface of the bag were those that were fast moving. If you remove the fast moving molecules, the ones left behind are slower and, thereby, colder. The faster you remove them the colder the aggregate becomes. Hanging the bag on the front of a fast moving car is a good way to remove them quickly.
What type of energy depends on how fast the molecules in a substance are moving?
ROUGHLY SPEAKING, that would be thermal energy.
When you are measuring temperature you are measuring the?
How fast molecules are moving. If they are moving fast its hot, but if they are moving slow it is cold
The type of energy that depends on how fast the molecules in a substance are moving?
Kinetic energy is the type of energy that depends on how fast the molecules in a substance are moving.
What is the measurement of how fast molecules are moving?
Temperature
What happens when fast moving molecules touch other molecules?
Heat transfer
How fast do think the molecules are moving in the refrigerator as compared to the freezer?
They are moving faster
HOW FAST DO YOU THINK THE MOLECULES ARE MOVING IN THE REFRIGERATOR AS COMPARED TO FREEZER?
They are moving faster
What does temperature measure?
Temperature measures how fast molecules are moving or in scientific terms it measures the AVERAGE KINETIC ENERGY in a system. Temperature measures how fast molecules are moving. :):)
When fast moving molecules touch other molecules what is it called?
convection
