Cold particles are particles that can attach too any materials, including air, whatever they bond with they freeze. Cold particles attach to slow moving objects because they are slow, thus they cannot attach or find it difficult to attach to accelerating objects. Picture this, when slowly entering a swimming pool you find it cold because you are slowly entering the pool which is full of cold particles, where as if you jump in, you are entering at a faster acceleration, the cold particles cant attach to you and you find the pool warmer than if you were to climb in. Cold particles are so small they are invisible to the naked eye, and even to a microscope, so small, that some would say they don't exist. The correct name for a cold particle is 'tnucaeruoy', the 'T' is silent, but is most commonly referred to as a cold particle.

Do particles in a cold river have more energy than particles in the air?

No because the particles in the air are more spaced out than the ones in the cold river also makeing it faster than the particles in the river.


Why are there more cold particles than warm particles on one side when trying to find thermodynamic equilibrium?

There are more cold particles than warm particles because the particles attract to frozen temperatures. They do this because since the colder the temperature is usually tight the molecules tighten and there is room for only the particles to squeeze.


Does an ice cube in your drink release cold particles into your drink or absorb the heat from your drink?

it absorbs it. there is no such thing as cold energy, and even less so "cold particles," only heat flow.


How does heat heat up stuff?

well heat is fast moving particles they collide with slow particles which is cold and the slow particles move fast too. In the end the slow particles move faster just as heat so they are not cold anymore.


What is the difference between hot air particles and cold air?

The difference lies in the speed of particles, not in the composition or structure of the individual particles themselves. Temperature measures the average speed of particles, so the particles which compose hot air are going to be moving faster than the cold air particles. Because of this, the two take on new properties - hot air will expand more rapidly and rise, while cold air will sink.

yes they do


Why do particles of water in the air form frost on a cold window?

just because cold air is there


Why are the hot gas particles moving faster than cool gas particles?

Because hot gas particles have greater kinetic energy than cold gas particles


Why do cold air particles move fast?

The statement is not correct; cold air particles move slowly because they lack the kinetic energy they need to move fast, which is heat.


How can you tell that the particles in a cup of water are moving slower or faster?

hot water has fast moving particles, and cold water has slow moving particles
