What is a substance that gives off high-energy particles or rays?

Radioactive material is a substance that gives off high-energy particles or rays, such as alpha, beta, or gamma radiation, due to its unstable atomic structure. These emissions can pose health risks if not handled properly.


What causes something to have high temperature?

Temperature is a measure of energy and if the particles in a substance are vibrating quicker then it has more energy and gets hotter.


How is thermal energy of a substances related to its physical state?

The thermal energy of a substance determines its state, since thermal energy, aka internal energy, is the energy the molecules in the substance have. If the energy exceeds the force holding the substance together the substance undergoes a phase change.The physical state of a substance is related to its temperature, the measure of thermal energy. The substance can change states depending on the temperature, e.g. boiling.


Substances with high thermal energy have fast moving particles but depend on mass (amount).?

Yes, substances with high thermal energy have particles that move quickly, but the amount of thermal energy also depends on the mass of the substance. More massive objects may have slower-moving particles than less massive objects with the same thermal energy.


What particles give off high energy?

Radionuclide or radioisotope is a substance that give off high energy particles or rays as it disintegrates. They emit three types of radioactivity is alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays.


Do Particles in gas have lots of energy?

Yes, particles in a gas have high kinetic energy because they are constantly moving and colliding with each other and the walls of their container at high speeds. This movement is what gives gases their ability to expand and fill the space they are in.


Particles of a solid have more energy than those of gas?

That statement is incorrect. Solids have particles with lower energy compared to gases. In a solid, particles are closely packed in a fixed arrangement, leading to lower energy levels, while in a gas, particles have high energy levels and are free to move around with no fixed arrangement.


Which particles have more kinetic energy-those in a substance with a high temperature or those in a substance with a low temperature?

Particles in a substance with a high temperature have more kinetic energy than those in a substance with a low temperature. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance, so higher temperature means higher average kinetic energy.


What particles shake violently at very high temperatures?

At very high temperatures, atoms and molecules in a substance shake violently due to increased thermal energy. This can cause particles to move rapidly and collide with each other, leading to an increase in kinetic energy and temperature.


Is it true that a high temperature has particles that move quickly?

Not precisely. A temperature can't have particles. A substance which is at a high temperature has particles which are moving fast.


Where do ultrahigh-energy particles come from?

The ultra high energy particles come from the sun. The sun's UV rays the high energy rays.


How is temperature related to kinetic energy?

They are not related. Kinetic Energy has to do with the speed or how fast something is going. Temperature has to do with how hot or cold something is. Maybe you are thinking of THERMAL ENERGY. That has to do with heat.When the temperature increase, that substances will tend to vibrate and then at a certain high temperature will start to move;that is why we say it gain energy.Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.
