What type of energy increases when an objects atoms move faster?

thermal energy.


Why the temperature increases as current increases?

The current is the flow of electrons. Temperature is the movement of atoms. As the current increases there is more collisions between the atoms and the electrons. Some of the energy from the electrons is transferred to the atoms, thus they move faster and so the temperature increases.


When the kinetic energy of atoms increases thermal energy increases or decreases?

Thermal energy (temperature) is the measurement of kinetic energy of atoms moving in a substance, therefore, as the speed (kinetic energy) of these atoms increases, thermal energy increases as well.


Do molecules move faster when heat increases?

Atoms comprising a molecule move faster as heat increases.


Do faster atoms have more potential energy than slower atoms?

faster atoms have more kinetic energy than slower atoms do.


As sample of matter is heated it's particles do what?

As the individual atoms are warmed up, they move faster causing the substance to expand slightly. As a substance has energy added to it through heating, its Kinetic Energy becomes greater. Kinetic energy is the energy of Motion - the more the kinetic energy of the atoms of a substance means the faster the speed of motion of these same atoms.


Describe the change in kinetic energy when the temperature of an object increases?

The more an objects kinetic energy increases the more it's temperature increases. An object that is traveling at 30 miles per hour will have a higher temperature than an object traveling at 10 miles per hour. This is in part due to friction. Mostly however, it is due to the fact that kinetic energy excites atoms in the object raising the objects temperature. You could put it like this: temperature = energy + atoms. Hope this helps.


What happens as atoms move or vibrate at a faster pace?

The kinetic energy increases. Morever it is likely to be gas. If it is a gas then the pressure of the container holding the gas will increase.


How are the atoms in an object affected when the temperature of the object increases?

Well, when the thermal energy of a substance increases, the temperature increases. When the temperature reaches the boiling or melting point, the state of the matter changes from one to another.


Can all objects contain heat?

Heat is the vibration of the atoms or molecules that make up things. As all atoms can vibrate and all objects are made of atoms, all objects contain heat energy.


What is the measure of the average kinetic energy of an objects atoms?

Temperature.


What kind of energy is stored and depends on the interaction of objects particles or atoms?

kinetic energy
