The difference between total and average molecular kinetic energy of a gas contained in a box?

I just figured this out, so here it is:
Average kinetic molecular energy is based on temp(in kelvin).
Ek= (3/2)RT ; where R is a constant(.0821), and T is temp in kelvin.
Total molecular kinetic energy is:
uRMS=[(3RT)/M]^(1/2) R equals 8.314 J/mol; T=kelvin; M=kg/mol

∙ 9y agoThe average molecular kinetic energy is proportional to the absolute temperature. The average total kinetic energy is divided by the number of particles in the box.

Explain the difference between total and average molecular kinetic energy of gas contained in a box?
Average Kinetic Energy is determined by the temperate of the gas. The higher the temperature, the higher the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules.Total Kinetic Energy is the average kinetic energy multiplied by the mass - the number of gas molecules in the box.- DENNIS LAM
What is the average difference in weight between men and women?
The average weight difference between men and women of the same height and age is 10 pounds.
What is the difference between temerature and heat?
Heat is the total number of molecular energy in motion in an object meaning the more hotter an object is the molecular energy moves faster. While temperature is simply the measurement of heat or thermal energy on a certain object.
What is the difference between instantaneous speed and speed?
Instantaneous speed is speed measured at a specific time. Speed is an average.
What is the difference between average acceleration and instantaneous acceleration?
Average acceleration is the average of the accelerations acquired in the whole journey by a body while instantaneous acceleration is the acceleration of the body at any particular instant of time.
