When a substance finishes melting, the particles have gained enough kinetic energy to break free from their fixed positions in the solid structure and move more freely as a liquid. The particles will continue to move and flow past one another in a random pattern, which is characteristic of a liquid state.

No, cooling actually slows down the motion of particles. When a substance is cooled, the particles lose kinetic energy, which leads to a decrease in their speed of motion.
The zigzag motion of particles was discovered by Japanese physicist Shoji Asada in 1952. This phenomenon is known as Brownian motion and is caused by the random movement of particles suspended in a fluid.
Yes, the particles in a piece of steel are in motion, although they may not appear to be moving. At the atomic level, the particles vibrate and move around constantly. This motion is known as thermal motion.
The backwards and forwards motion of particles in a solid is called vibrational motion. This motion occurs as particles oscillate around fixed positions within the solid lattice structure.
As a block of ice finishes melting, the particles gain enough energy to break the bonds holding them in place. This increased energy causes the particles to move more freely, transitioning from a solid to a liquid state.
When a substance finishes melting, its particles transition from a more ordered, fixed arrangement in the solid state to a more disordered, free-moving arrangement in the liquid state. In the liquid state, the particles have more kinetic energy and can move more freely past each other.
The motion of particles that occurs once a substance has completely melted is called fluid motion. In the fluid state, the particles move freely and do not have a fixed shape or volume.
They can flow around since they're not as tightly packed anymore.
The particles are moving rapidly
The particles are tightly packed so they vibrate.
Brownian motion
Brownian motion is the random moving and mixing of particles.
Smooth lubricated surfaces.
Particles within are limited to vibrational motion, unlike the particles which make up liquids which can have vibrational & translational motion, and gaseous particles which have vibrational, translational and rotational motion.
Unless the particles collide
