Temperature and Thermal Energy

Question 11 • Fall 24 GSE Physical Science B IC

Sample Response: The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases. As the average kinetic energy decreases, the internal energy decreases, and so the thermal energy decreases. As the thermal energy of the substance decreases, the temperature decreases. What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases.As the average kinetic energy decreases,

Answer
A
The particles in a substance slow down when the average kinetic energy of the particles decreases.
B
As the average kinetic energy decreases, the internal energy decreases, and so the thermal energy decreases.
C
As the thermal energy of the substance decreases, the temperature decreases.
