"Vector energy" is pseudoscientific nonsense.
Technically, the energy of motion is kinetic energy. However, if the motions are random (the molecules are all just jiggling around any which way, as opposed to all moving in the same direction) then this is experienced overall as heat (thermal energy).

Which term is defined as a measure of the energy of motion of particles in a substance?
Heat is a measure of the amount of energy due to the motion of the particles in a gas, liquid, or solid. Temperature is a measure of the average amount of heat energy in a given body.
Sources of energy and their uses at home?
the energy source that you use at home is thermal energy because when you are at home, you are sitting and the you get up the next minute. thermal energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy due to its random motion.
What happens when gravity pulls water down a slope?
The water runs down hill. That's why all rivers lead to the sea.
What does kinetic energy do?
Kinetic energy tells you how much energy an object has due to motion. The faster an object is moving, the more kinetic energy it has. Moving objects also have more kinetic energy if they have more mass, because it takes more work to get them moving. The formula for kinetic energy is (1/2)mv2 where m is mass and v is velocity.
Which of the following is an example of kinetic energy?
A.A child riding a bicycle down the streeta car in motion has kinetic energy because, Kinetic energy is energy due to motion.
What form of energy does the water have due to the random motion of its particles?
"thermal"
What is a form of energy caused due to molecular motion?
Heat = molecular motion =energy If you apply energy to say, a nail, the particles that the nail consists of will start moving faster, and the nail will heat up. The same goes the other way around: If you put the hot nail on a block of ice, the ice will cool the nail down. The particles will start moving slower, and the overall energy held by the nail is lessened.
All molecular motion ceases at 0 Kelvin why?
All molecular motion stops at absolute zero because absolute zero is the coldest possible temperature. And it is only able to achieve this temperature if the molecules/atom do not possess any thermal energy. And thermal energy is what causes vibrating motion of the molecules/atom. Thus at this temperature no molecules/atoms will vibrate due to the complete lack of energy.
Is energy due to motion called palatial energy?
Energy due to motion is called kinetic energy.
What is The energy of a moving object due to the objects motion?
Energy due to motion is kinetic energy.
What is the energy of a moving object due to its motion?
Energy related to motion is called "kinetic energy".
Is a car a kinetic or potential energy?
Energy due to motion is kinetic energy, so the energy of the car due to it's motion is kinetic.
What best describes thermal energy?
Thermal energy is the energy and object or system has due to the movement of particles within. This results in the object or system having an internal temperature that can be measured with a thermometer.
What is the spreading out of a substance due to random molecular motion?
Diffusion. Diffusion is a passive process, meaning that it requires no energy input from a cell or other source, other than the energy of motion that all substances have above absolute zero (0o Kelvin).
What term refers to energy that is possessed by matter due to its motion?
kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
Is the energy that an object has due to its motion or position?
Motion: kinetic energy. Position: potential energy.
How does air expand in hot water?
due to forced convection and molecular motion
