The average vibration of molecules in an object is measured by?
temperature!
What is the average kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object is?
The average kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object is the temperature.
What is relation between temperature and molecular vibration of an object?
Heat energy in a substance is the intensity of vibration of the molecules in that substance. The more the vibration more is the heat energy stored in the object. So in a way Heat energy is the kinetic energy of the molecules in the substance. Thus temperature increases on the increase in the kinetic energy of the gases.
How would you calculate an objects mechanical energy?
Find out the form of Mechanical energy in he object. Kinetic energy is measured with velocity Vibration energy measured by amplitude and frequency of vibration. Datum energy is measured by height of the object from ground. Hence it depends on the type of the energy.
How do you know how hot an object is?
Heat is a form of energy. The energy is tied to the molecules of the object. The faster the molecules in an object vibrate, the more heat energy it contains and therefore the more hotter it is. By measuring the amount of vibration in an objects molecules, you can calculate how hot it is.
Explain the difference between an object's external temperature and its thermal energy?
The thermal energy of an object consists of the total kinetic energy of all its atoms and molecules. The temperature of the object is a measured average intensity of its thermal energy.
Does an object that feels hot have a lot of random kinetic energy.?
Yes, heat is the kinetic energy (the vibration modes) of the atoms and or molecules that make up an object.
What does vibration?
Vibration is a movement of molecules, which typically involves oscillation about an equilibrium point, and is distinct from its motion and velocity.Amplitude describes the degree of vibration noted on the object. More movement means more criticality of the object condition. Velocity or speed shall be measured in a specific direction in terms of peak value or rms (root-mean-square) value. Its unit is in/s or mm/s.Frequency: a machine may oscillate quickly or slowly depending on the vibration. The rate of machine-part oscillation is called vibration frequency. Number of oscillation cycles per second is defined as the frequency, e.g. 3 cycles per second (Hertz) or 3 cycles per minute.Spectrum: It is combination of the frequency of component vibration and velocity amplitude measured at that time.
Is it true that the temperature of an object is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in the objects?
FALSE (APEX)
What measures the quantity of the matter of an object?
The quantity of matter in an object is its mass. If you then know what the object is made from you can find out (approximately) how many atoms or molecules it has (measured in mol).
How is conduction heat transferred between hot and cold objects?
Conduction of heat means that two objects with different temperatures are touching each other. The heat of the hotter object generally transfers to the cooler object. In the hotter object, molecules are moving faster. The vibration from these molecules causes the molecules in the cooler object to vibrate faster, which translates into heat.
What is the average kinetic energy molecules in an object called?
It is Temperature
