Kinetic Energy

Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the “motion” of an object. In solids, liquids, and gases, the amount of kinetic energy varies greatly.

Multiple Choice

The kinetic energy (motion) in solids, liquids, and gases _____

• are all the same

• vary greatly

Kinetic Energy in Solids

Solids have the lowest kinetic energy because the particles are tightly packed and vibrate in place.

Kinetic Energy in Liquids

​Liquids have a larger kinetic energy than solids because the particles slide past each other.

Kinetic Energy in Gases

Gases have the most kinetic energy because the
particles have rapid random movements.
