Energy in an object's motion is kinetic energy. Energy in an object because of its position in a gravitational field is potential energy.
Energy of the movement of molecular particles is thermal energy called sensible heat/energy.
And energy relating to atomic bonds is chemical potential energy.
AlsoThe pure mass of all the matter (the protons, neutrons and electrons) contains an amount of energy that dwarfs all the other energies combined. It is the energy in what is called the mass-energy equivalent. It is what Einstein was talking about in the equation E=mc2.
As the conversion factor from mass to energy is the square of the speed of light, there is a boatload of energy in just the tiniest bit of matter. (Consider atomic weapons, where just the smallest bit of mass is converted into energy. Boom!)
All objects in motion have kenetic energy, which produces heat that is created by molecules in the air.

How is gravity and mass related?
Mass is a property almost all matter has. It does not change from place to place, it is always constant. It is measured in Kg. Gravity is the effect mass has on other mass. It is the effect 2 (or more) bodies of mass drawn to each other. Gravity is measured in m/(s^2), this is a unit of acceleration.
How is aurora related to solar wind?
The solar wind produces a number of charged particles. These charged particles crash into the atmosphere at the magnetic north pole. When a particle from the solar wind hits an atom in the atmosphere, it knocks an electron from its outer shell. When the electron bounces back to where it belongs, it gives off light. That light is the Aurora.
What are the Southern Lights?
The Southern Lights (Aurora Austrialis) are a sky phenomena, multi-colored shimmering lights, associated with the acceleration of charged particles above the South Magnetic Pole. (see the related question)
How are the Northern Lights - Aurora Borealis - related to the earth's magnetic field?
An Aurora Australis or an Aurora Borealis occurs when streams of particles from the sun's solar winds hit the earth's atmosphere at an angle (as can only happen at the poles). These particles interact with the edges of the earth's magnetic field and when they collide with the gases in the ionosphere, the particles glow creating curtains of blue, green and magenta. An aurora is sometimes said to be accompanied by a crackling sound, but this has never been recorded and scientists are at a loss to explain what causes the sound.
How do scientist weigh a star such as the sun?
It cannot. weight is a measurement of gravity between two objects. For example if I weigh 60 N on earth I would weigh around 10 N on the moon.What you probably meant was how can the suns mass be measured; this can be done by taking the density multiplied by size.
If you measured all the energy related to motion all the stored energy in the particles of a substance you would be measuring?
I would say non-relativistic total energy. The energy related to motion is kinetic energy; The stored energy in the particles is potential energy.

How is the motion of the particles within a substance related to the thermal energy of a substance?
i dont no
How is the temperature of a gaseous substance related to the average kinetic energy of the particles in the substance?
if the temperature of the substance is raised then the kinetic energy of the gaseous particles will also increase....
How does the speed of atoms in a substance related to its temperature?
If there is an increase in the temperature of a substance, that indicates the increase in vibration and speed of the particles. If there is a decrease in the temperature of a substance, that indicates the decrease in vibration and speed of the particles.
How is temperature and kinetic related?
Temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.
What is measure related to the speed of the particles in a substance?
When we heat a substance, the energy absorbed is converted into kinetic energy of the particles in it. The faster the particles in it vibrate, move, collide, etc. the higher the temperatureof a substance.So the expected answer is Temperature
Is the kinetic energy of a substance the kinetic energy of its particles?
No. The average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object is basically related to the object's temperature.
The average kinetic energy of a substances is its what?
Average KE is proportional to the temperature of the particles measured in Kelvin.Energy is measured in Joules and temperature is measured in Kelvin or Celsius. Do not think that they are the same thing.KE = 1/2mv2 for macroscopic objects but the equation for working out the KE of particles is quite complicated.
What compound will have the subatomic particles so closely related that they take on a ridgid shape?
Neutronium. The substance of a Neutron star.
How is temperature related to energy?
Temperature is the average kinetic energy of a substance, As a substance gains kinetic energy, its particles begin to move faster. While solids vibrate in place, the particles in a liquid slip and slide past each other, and in gasses, the particles move even faster and further apart. As the kinetic energy of a substance increases, the particles collide with one another with greater force and frequency. Every time particles collide, there is friction between them. Just as your hands get warm when you rub them together, the particles begin to warm as they collide. This is why there is a direct relationship between the temperature and the kinetic energy of a substance.
In what field is De Broglie wavelength being measured?
The De Broglie Wavelength is being measured in the electromagnetic fields. The De Broglie Wavelength theory is related to Bohr's Quantum Theory and is about the energy of atom particles.
