they move like old people
During thermal conduction in a solid, kinetic energy is transferred from faster-moving particles to slower-moving particles. This leads to an overall increase in the speed of slower particles and a decrease in the speed of faster particles, resulting in a more uniform distribution of particle speeds.
It depends upon the mass of the particles also. Assuming equal mass, then the slower moving particle gains some energy, and the faster moving particle loses energy. However, if the slower moving particle had greater mass, it could transfer energy to the faster moving particle.
Thermal energy is temperature. Temperature is measured as the average kinetic energy of each particle, as a atom is always moving. The faster the atom's movement, the more energy, the higher the temperature. Thus, thermal energy is transferred when a fast moving atom comes into contact with a slower moving one, thus giving it some of its energy, making it move faster, making it hotter.
Yes, substances with high thermal energy have particles that move quickly, but the amount of thermal energy also depends on the mass of the substance. More massive objects may have slower-moving particles than less massive objects with the same thermal energy.
The temperature of an object affects its thermal expansion by causing its particles to move faster and spread out, leading to an increase in volume. Conversely, when the temperature decreases, the particles move slower and the object contracts.

Increased energy makes particles move faster.
When a solid cools down, its particles lose energy and vibrate slower. As the temperature decreases, the motion of the atoms or molecules within the solid diminishes, leading to reduced vibrations. This is in contrast to when a solid is heated, where increased thermal energy causes the particles to vibrate faster.
No - they speed up
Thermal energy is temperature. Temperature is measured as the average kinetic energy of each particle, as a atom is always moving. The faster the atom's movement, the more energy, the higher the temperature.

The thermal energy inside them. The more thermal energy you put in them (e.g. by heating them), the hotter they are going to become, and the stronger the particles that they are made of are going to wobble around. This thermal random motion of particles is called 'Brownian motion'. dunno
If the thermal energy is higher, then the particles in the object move faster and want to get away from each other because it is so hot, thus, its a gas. If the thermal energy is lower, then the particles in the object move slower and form a solid shape, like they are huddling together, thus, its a solid. If the thermal energy is right in between the two above, then it is a liquid. A great example is H2O, it is the base measurement of density, when its thermal energy rises, it turns into water vapor, if its thermal energy lowers, it turns to ice.
Particles will move faster when heated and slower when cooled.This is the reason that solid objects grow larger when heated. The particles are moving so fast they are making ti expand. Paragraph by -- Kira2k
