-- If the energy of the particle is its kinetic energy, then removing kinetic energy

certainly slows it down.

-- If the energy of the particle is its heat energy, then that too is nothing more than

the kinetic energy of its molecules. Remove heat energy from it, and the average

kinetic energy of its molecules ... along with their average speed ... decreases.

-- If an object started out high above the ground and then fell to the ground, it

gains speed constantly while it's falling. This is not a counterexample of losing

energy, since the falling object doesn't lose any energy ... it just trades potential

for kinetic. So it doesn't belong in this discussion at all.

When particles of a gas lose thermal energy do they move slower or faster?

When particles of a gas lose thermal energy, they move slower. This is because temperature and kinetic energy are directly proportional - as thermal energy decreases, the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases, leading to slower movement.


What happens when you remove heat from particles?

Then the particles would normally move slower. However, they can also lose energy in other ways; for example, when a liquid turns solid.Then the particles would normally move slower.

When you add energy to the particles move?

faster. and matter then would move slower


When you add energy to matter particles move?

faster. and matter then would move slower


Does increased energy increased that particles are moving faster r slower?

Increased energy makes particles move faster.


If thermal energy is added to matter do the particles move slower?

No - they speed up


What happens to particles when cooled?

it loses energy that makes it not move as quickly, therefore it gets smaller. that answer your question?


How is temperature related to the kinetic energy of particles?

Temperature is directly related to the kinetic energy of particles. As temperature increases, the particles move faster and have more kinetic energy. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the particles move slower and have less kinetic energy.


How does temperature affect the kinetic energy of particles?

Temperature directly affects the kinetic energy of particles. As temperature increases, the particles gain more energy and move faster, increasing their kinetic energy. Conversely, as temperature decreases, the particles lose energy and move slower, decreasing their kinetic energy.


How do particles move at higher temperatures compared to how they move at lower temperatures?

particles move faster, such as when you are hot and you want to get away from everyone. lower tempertures move slowly and gather up into groups, as if u were cold and you would want a group hug to get warmer, also you move slower because it is cold.


Do particles in sold ice move slower than particles in liquid water?

Yes. The colder the substance become, the slower the particles move. Actually in pure ice the particles do not move at all.


Do the particles in solid ice move slower than the particles in liquid?

Yes. The colder the substance become, the slower the particles move. Actually in pure ice the particles do not move at all.
