What happens to temperature in the troposphere?
The air temperature decreases as you go higher. On the average temperature decreases about 6.5 degrees Celsius for each kilometer.
What Explain what happens to the average kinetic energy, thermal energy, and temperature of a substance when the particles in the substance slow down.?
The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases. As the average kinetic energy decreases, the internal energy decreases, and so the thermal energy decreases. As the thermal energy of the substance decreases, the temperature decreases.
What is the movement of atoms in a liquid during a temperature changes both increases and decreases?
As temperature increases, the atoms will move around more energetically - moving on average faster. Translational speeds increase, rotational speeds of the molecules increase, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules increase As temperature decreases, the atoms move around less energetically - moving on average slower. Translational speeds decrease, rotational speeds of the molecules decrease, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules decrease
What happens to the distance between molecules as the temperature increases?
Temperature is an indirect measurement of a system's molecule's average kinetic energy (KE). As the temperature of a system increases, so does the KE of the molecules. This causes the molecules to move farther apart. You can see this most easily in an old (not digital) thermometer.
What is the average humidity in Florida in May?
The average humidity in Florida in May is about 70 to about 75 percent. This increases in the mornings and decreases by late afternoon.
When latitude increases does temperature decrease?
The close the latitude is to 0, the hotter it is.
How does a substances temperature change when the average kinetic energy of its particles increases When it decreases?
It decreases in relation to lower temperature.
What is the relation between latitude and temperature range for the year?
as the latitude increases, average temp. decreases. this concept is called an inverse relationship.
Does a solid forms when the average energy of a substance's particles decreases then increases?
Decreases.
What happens to temperature in the troposphere?
The air temperature decreases as you go higher. On the average temperature decreases about 6.5 degrees Celsius for each kilometer.
An increase in the temperature of a contained liquid?
INCREASES the solubility of SOLIDS and LIQUIDS... and DECREASES the solubility of GASES.
What happens to a volume of a gas when temperature is decreased?
Temperature and volume vary directly, so if temperature decreases, so does volume. Volume decreases because the measure of the average kinetic energy of the gas particles (temperature) is decreasing also. When that happens, a gas cannot expand, and will decrease.
The precision with which a sample average approximates a population average increases as?
the standard deviation of the sample decreases.
When temperature increases the kinetic energy of the particles decreases?
Kinetic energy is directly related to temperature, because temperature is the average kinetic energy of an object. Therefore, as the temperature of an object decreases, its kinetic energy decreases, as well.
What increases when the average Kinetic energy of the particles in a material increases?
The average kinetic energy of colliding particles can be increased by increasing temperature.
What Explain what happens to the average kinetic energy, thermal energy, and temperature of a substance when the particles in the substance slow down.?
The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases. As the average kinetic energy decreases, the internal energy decreases, and so the thermal energy decreases. As the thermal energy of the substance decreases, the temperature decreases.
When the area over which a force is applied decreases what increases?
When the area over which a force is applied decreases, the average force applied over said area increases. In other words, the pressure (force/area) increases.
