The thermal energy of matter depends on how fast its particles are moving on average, which is measured by temperature and on how many particles there are which is measured by _________________?
a) matter
b) temp
c) mass
d) none of the above

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is C) mass

Explanation:

Thermal energy can be described as the total kinetic energy which an moving object possesses. As the temperature of an object will be raised, its particles will move with faster energy and hence the thermal energy will increase. The thermal energy of an object also depends on the number of atoms which the particular object possesses. The number of atoms present in an object is referred to as the mass of the object.
