Kinetic energy
Atoms, molecules, waves and electrons move in a variety of ways, but in general, their movements are perceived on the larger, human scale as heat. In hotter objects, everything is moving faster on the microscopic scale.
The movement of atoms, molecules, waves, and electrons is associated with kinetic energy. This type of energy is related to the motion of an object or particles.
Actually Thermal energy is produced by the movement of atoms and molecules!!

Atoms and molecules are in constant motion due to thermal energy, vibrating and rotating. Waves propagate through a medium or space by transferring energy without displacing matter. Electrons move around atomic nuclei in specific energy levels or orbitals.
Electromagnetic waves originate from the movement of charged particles, such as electrons, in atoms and molecules. When these charged particles accelerate or change direction, they create electromagnetic waves that can travel through space.
No, infrared waves are non-ionizing radiation, which means they do not have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms or molecules, leading to ionization.
Ionizing electromagnetic waves include gamma rays, X-rays, and high-energy ultraviolet (UV) radiation. These waves have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms or molecules, causing ionization to occur.
Electrons have dual properties.
Yes, radio waves are a form of radiation. However, they are non-ionizing radiation, which means they do not have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms or molecules. This is in contrast to ionizing radiation, such as x-rays and gamma rays, which have enough energy to ionize atoms.
High-energy electromagnetic waves such as X-rays, gamma rays, and ultraviolet radiation have enough energy to dislodge electrons from atoms or molecules, creating ions. This process is known as ionization.
Ionizing radiation consists of particles or electromagnetic waves that are energetic enough to detach electrons from atoms or molecules, thus ionizing them. Direct ionization from the effects of single particles or single photons produces free radicals, which are atoms or molecules containing unpaired electrons, that tend to be especially chemically reactive due to their electronic structure.
