The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. That means that if you increase the speed by a factor of 5, the kinetic energy increases by a factor of (5 squared).This applies to non-relativistic speeds; if you approach the speed of light, a different formula must be used.

How does the temperature of gas change when it is compressed if the process is adiabatic?

In an adiabatic process, the temperature is increased when it is compressed. There is an increase in internal kinetic energy, and because temperature is related to kinetic energy, it is also increased.


How is the kinetic energy of the constituent particles of matter affected by change in temperature?

As temperature is increased the kinetic energy of the constituent particles of matter increases.When temperature decreases the kinetic energy of them decreases. This is because temperature, or rather heat, is itself energy

When the brick held on hands is shifted down to break the rod change is from potential to kinetic or kinetic to heat?

The change is from potential energy to kinetic energy.


How can a trucks kinetic energy can be increased without increasing its speed?

Drive alongside it in another vehicle and then move stuff onto the truck. This will increase the mass of the [whole] truck and so increase its KE. This is dangerous so do not try it!


What kinetic energy can change into electrical energy?

Yes kinetic energy can change into electrical eneergy because wind turbines change


During a change is state energy is transferred in the form of?

Usually in the form of increased or decreased kinetic energy of the molecules and added or reduced inter-molecular potential energy. Which way it goes depends on the direction of change in state.

When the molecules in a body move with increased speed it is possible that the body will change from what to what?

As the molecules in a body move with increased speed, i.e. increasing kinetic energy, it is possible that the body will change from the solid phase to the liquid phase, or the liquid phase to the gas phase, and in some cases from the solid directly to the gas phase.
