In a solid the particles or atoms are

• Stuck in place not moving at all

• Vibrating in place

• Flying all over the object

• Leaving the object

As something heats up, the kinetic energy of the particles

• increases causing the particles to move faster

• decrease causing the particles to move slower

• stays the same

• decrease causing the particles to move faster
