If temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of something why do planes not get very warm when accelerated to very fast speeds which increase their kinetic energy?

Heat is the average kinetic energy at the molecular level. A planes forward momentum and kinetic energy as a whole does not affect the kinetic energy of the individual particles with respect to each other. So you don't see a temperature change.

∙ 14y agoyeah it is. Cause the more temperature the more average K.T. For having more kinetic energy the no. of collisions will increase. As a result the heat is produced and the temperature will increase. And we all know we can easily measure the temperature of a gas by using thermometer.

What increase as the average energy of the motion of the particles of matter increase?
the speed increases
Why does an increase in temperature increase the volume of a balloon?
This requires one simple equation and then a further understanding of it. PV=nRT where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature, n is the number of molecule, R is some constant. From this we can easily see that an increase in temperature does in fact cause an increase in volume. To see why lets think about what temperature is. Temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy. So an increase in temperature increases the average kinetic energy. An increase in average kinetic energy means that average velocity must be increased (K.E = .5(mv^2)). More velocity means that the molecules in the balloon are flying faster, and since pressure is the same, the molecules spread out more, which must increase the volume.
When temperature increase the average kinetic energy of the particles decrease true or false?
false
What is the measure of how hot or cold something is specifically a measure of the average kinetic energy of the articles in an object?
Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold something is. Temperature is specifically a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object.
If you increase the temperature of a gas what happens to the movement of the molecules?
Their average kinetic energy, and hence their speed, increases.
What is the increase in the average temperature of the biosphere?
The increase in the average temperature of the biosphere is called global warming.
Global warming is the increase in the average what of the earth?
Temperature of the atmosphere and oceans.its the increase in the temperature of the earthBLANK = "temperature".Temperature
What causes the average temperature of Earth to increase?
Accelerated greenhouse effect. Global Warming. Burning fossil fuels. Deforestation. Flying a plane instead of riding a bike. Lots of things contribute.
What might cause the average temperature of earth to increase?
Accelerated greenhouse effect. Global Warming. Burning fossil fuels. Deforestation. Flying a plane instead of riding a bike. Lots of things contribute.
Could the temperature of a material increases the average of its particles also increase?
If the temperature of a material increases, the average kinetic energy of its particles will increase.
What is the Increase in average temperature of the biosphere?
Global Warming
An increase in the average kinetic energy of a sample of copper atoms occurs with an increase in what?
Temperature
What increase as the average energy of the motion of the particles of matter increase?
the speed increases
How do particles of matter react to an increase of temperature?
When there is an increase in an object or medium's temperature, its particles have increase kinetic energy. Temperature is the measure of the average amount of kinetic energy within an object or medium.
What is the average temperature in the Nevada state?
something
How does the addition of heat to a liquid affect its average kinetic energy?
It would increase its average kinetic energy which would be apparent by an increase in temperature.
How does a substance 's temperature change when the average kinetic energy of it's particle increases?
As the average kinetic energy of a substance increases, the temperature will increase.
