Is temperature change chemical?

No. Temperature is not a change of any sort. It is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.


Does temperature contain any particles?

Temperature is a measure of the thermal energy of a system...thermal energy cannot be said to be a particle, but particles may have thermal energy.


Is it possible to measure temperature of a vacuum?

Technically no. Temperature is effectively the average speed of the particles. If you don't have any particles then you have no temperature. Although an Infra-red detector would work, and Infra-red radiation causes heating, that would not be the temperature. Also, this is all theoretical anyway since total vacuums do not exist.

What happens to particle motion if temperature of gas is increased?

This is thermodynamics. When you increase the temperature of an object, the particles gain on kinethic energy ergo the move faster. When you decrease it, they slow down. you can slow down only to absolute zero (0K or -273,14°C) at this temperature particles aren't moving in any object.


Function of a thermometer?

TemperatureThermometers measure temperature, as opposed to heat. Temperature is an intensive property of matter, whereas heat is an extensive one. The Arctic Ocean has more heat than a boiling teapot of water, even though the latter's temperature is much higher, because extensive properties depend upon the amount of stuff you have. Specifically, thermometers measure temperature, which is the speed of particles. The faster the particles in a substance move, the higher the temperature. Slower moving particles have a lower temperature.


Is there any effect of temperature on young's modulus of a meterial?

As the Young's modulus is a measure of stiffness, an increase in the temperature will typically lead to a decrease in the modulus of elasticity. However it depends on the material.


What does heat energy do to a material?

all particle made up of particles,.whena material give more heat energy the particles move faster faster moving particles give them a high temperature..when heat energy is taken away from particles they slow down and so amterial has low temperature.in any material there must be some particles which are slower moving and having less energy and some are fast moving having high energy .


Why does evaporation lowers the temperature of liquid?

In any liquid the particles are moving around at various different speeds. The temperature is a measure of the average speed. When a liquid starts to evaporate, it is because the most energetic particles leave the liquid and move away into the air. This means that the average speed of particles in the liquid is less and so the temperature is lowered. However, energy is soon absorbed from the surroundings.


At what temperature does Lithium-6 emit radiation?

Any material will emit blackbody radiation at any temperature. Lithium 6 will never emit ionizing radiation.


What is the Function of transmission filter?

To filter any particles out of the fluid. Any transmission will wear and this wear creates metal particles and band material. The filter holds these and prevents them from being recirculated throughout the transmission.To filter any particles out of the fluid.
