What is the total kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules in an object called?
Temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy of all the atoms and molecules in an object
What is a form of energy caused by increased molecular activity and is a measure of the total energy of the substance?
Kinetic energy is the measure of the total energy of a substance.
Which describes the thermal energy of particles in a substance?
total value of all kinetic and potential energy
Temperature is not a measurement of the amount of heat?
True! Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance.Heat is the total kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. See the difference?For example, if you double the amount of a substance, then you have double the heat energy, but the temperature stays the same.
What is the total kinetic energy and potential energy?
It is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
The sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the molecules of a substance?
thermal

The total kinetic energy of the particles in a substance?
thermal energy
What is the total of kinetic energy of a substance particles?
thermal energy
The total kinetic energy of all the particles in a substance is called?
The total kinetic energy of all the particles in a substance is called thermal energy. Thermal energy is measured in joules.
What term refers to the total kinetic energy of the particles in a material?
Thermal energy is the term for total kinetic energy in a substance, according to a 5th grade science book. There may be other forms of energy in a substance, but thermal energy is the total kinetic energy.Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample.
What is the total kinetic of the particles in a substance?
thermal energy
What is a form of energy caused by increased molecular activity and is a measure of the total energy of the substance?
Kinetic energy is the measure of the total energy of a substance.
What is the measure of the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance?
Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance.
What is the total kinetic energy of molecules present in the substance called?
THERMAL ENERGY
What is the total kinetic energy of the particles that make up a substance?
Heat
What cause kinetic energy to increase?
Temperature is a number that is related to the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. If temperature is measured in Kelvin degrees, then this number is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of the molecules. This differentiates it from *heat,* a different term, which is a measurement of the total energy in a substance. That total energy is made up of not only of the kinetic energies of the molecules of the substance, but total energy is also made up of the potential energies of the molecules. As temperature increases, kinetic energy increases (which makes sense, if you're putting more energy into a system, you're probably going to have more total energy).
