Question

y and temperature of an object are related. hands together this occurs because the microscopic particles in the hands move when hands are rubbed

Explanation:

When hands are rubbed together, friction occurs. Friction converts mechanical energy into thermal energy. According to the kinetic - molecular theory, temperature is related to the average kinetic energy of particles. An increase in thermal energy means an increase in the average kinetic energy of the microscopic particles (molecules) in the hands. Since kinetic energy \(K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\) (where \(m\) is the mass of the particle and \(v\) is its velocity), an increase in kinetic energy implies an increase in the speed of the particles.

Answer:

faster
