There are generally fewer particles in a vacuum compared to other environments, such as the atmosphere or within solids and liquids. In a vacuum, the absence of matter means there are significantly reduced numbers of atoms and molecules. Additionally, in regions of space far from stars or planets, particle density decreases dramatically, resulting in an almost empty expanse.
Cooler particles have less kinetic energy.
Large particles have fewer points of contact with adjacent particles in a rock layer, leading to less interlocking and friction. Smaller particles, on the other hand, have more contact points, which can create more friction as they interlock more closely.
Yes
Particles with lower mass tend to have less kinetic energy, as kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass and the square of velocity (KE = 1/2 mv²). Additionally, particles at lower temperatures possess less kinetic energy due to reduced thermal motion. Therefore, in general, larger, slower-moving particles or particles in cooler environments will have less kinetic energy compared to smaller, faster-moving ones.
Particles in a solid are closer together and lower in energy than those in a liquid. The closer together particles are, the less they move. Since the amount of motion directly corresponds to the internal energy, a substance with closer particles will have less internal energy. When particles are close together and move less, the structure is more stable than when they move around more freely. Therefore a solid, which is very stable, has closer particles and less energy than a liquid, which is less stable, which in turn has closer particles and less energy than a gas, which is very unstable in its structure.

Large particles have less total surface area, so caused less friction then the smaller particles do

Yes
The smallest particles in soil are clay particles. Clay particles are smaller than sand and silt particles, with diameters less than 0.002 mm.
Particles become less organized when they change state from a solid to a liquid. In a solid, particles are arranged in a specific pattern and vibrate in place, but in a liquid, the particles have more freedom to move around and do not have a fixed position.
The rarefaction is the area of a sound wave where particles are less dense. This corresponds to the regions of lower pressure within the wave, where particles are spread out farther apart from each other.

The movement of a molecule's particles in a solid move much less and are more structured than a liquid, and a liquid's particles move less than a gas.The movement of a molecule's particles of solid move much less and are more rigid than liquid, and liquid more so than a gas.

Compared to less massive particles at the same temperature, more massive particles have lower average speeds due to their higher inertia. This results in more frequent collisions with other particles, leading to increased pressure in a gas.
