Question

kinetic and thermal energy quick check
which object will have particles with the highest average kinetic energy? (1 point)
water at 37°c in a glass
water at 40°c in a swimming pool
a drop of water at 90°c
an iceberg at 0°c

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of particles is directly related to temperature. Higher temperature means higher average kinetic energy. Among the given options, the drop of water at \(90^{\circ}C\) has the highest temperature.

Answer:

a drop of water at \(90^{\circ}C\)
