If an object moves, it has kinetic energy. The same applies to particles.
The kinetic energy in an object is EK=mcV where V is the velocity, a vector.
When an object cools, the particles' kinetic energy transfers back into potential energy, the particles slow down.
In microscopic particles, it's called internal energy. In macroscopic object it's called thermodynamic energy
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object is called temperature.
The total kinetic and potential energy of its particles.
No. The average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object is basically related to the object's temperature.
Because they have different temperatures and when you measure an object's temperature, you measure the average kinetic energy of all the particles in the object.
When there is an increase in an object or medium's temperature, its particles have increase kinetic energy. Temperature is the measure of the average amount of kinetic energy within an object or medium.
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object is called temperature.
Thermal energy
No: Upon being heated, the average kinetic energy of the particles that compose the object increases.
Because they have different temperatures and when you measure an object's temperature, you measure the average kinetic energy of all the particles in the object.
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv2, where kinetic energy is measured in Joules, mass in grams, and velocity in m/s.
