What happens when matter is heated What happens to its energy?

When matter is heated, its particles gain kinetic energy, causing them to move faster and vibrate more. This increase in energy leads to a rise in temperature and can result in changes in the physical state of the matter, such as melting or boiling. The energy that is added to the matter during heating is stored within the particles as heat energy.


What happens when matter cools?

One thing that happens is that the molecules in the matter lose energy and momentum and slow down, therefore the matter becomes more compact.


What happens is energy is taken away from matter?

When thermal energy is taken away from matter particles move more slowly. When thermal energy is added to matter particles move faster.

Does radiant energy produce heat energy when it strikes matter?

To the extent to which the energy is absorbed, yes. Reflectivity and color determine how much energy is absorbed, but no matter can reflect 100% of the energy striking it. Some will be absorbed by the molecules.
