Answer:
The answer to your question is below
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy that a body or molecule has due to movement or velocity.
Temperature increases the movement of molecules so in a hot cup of coffee, molecules have a high kinetic energy.
In an ice cream, due to temperature, molecules do not move as fast as in a hot cup of coffee so the kinetic energy will be lower in this substance.
Answer:
Explanation:
Kinetic energy of molecules in a substance is the energy the molecules possess when it's moving. An increase in temperature generally increases the movement of molecules (hence has an increased kinetic energy) while a decrease in temperature reduces the movement of molecules in a substance (hence has a decreased kinetic energy.
A hot cup of coffee has a high temperature and as such it's molecules move fast hence the molecules of the coffee have a higher kinetic energy compared to a cold Ice cream whose molecules move slowly due to low temperature (hence the kinetic energy is low).
