Question

temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance. when air is put under high pressure, it is pushed into a smaller space. this adds energy to the air. so, the motion of the air particles increases and the air temperature rises.
the opposite happens when air pressure decreases. there is more space for the air to expand, so the particles spread out and lose energy.
complete the sentence.
when pressure increases, temperature ______. when pressure decreases, temperature ______.
increases...increases decreases...decreases
increases...decreases decreases...increases

Explanation:

The text clearly states that when air is put under high pressure (pressure increases), the air temperature rises (temperature increases). And when air pressure decreases, the particles lose energy (temperature decreases).

Answer:

increases...decreases
