How do atoms in a liquid transfer heat to nearby atoms?

On a molecular scale, thermal energy is the kinetic energy of individual particles. In a liquid, this thermal energy is transferred to nearby atoms by collisions; a high-speed particle in the liquid collides with a lower-speed particle, transferring some kinetic energy from the high-speed particle to the low-speed particle. When this happens with a large number of particles, thermal energy transfer results.


Can you skate faster on hockey skates or speed skates?

Speed skates are designed to fast. The skates are designed with alot of aerdynamics , but must be comfortable to. The answer is speed skates because they have longer blades making turning sharp harder but holding a fast speed easier and in more control.

Who do speed skaters and figure-skaters wear different kinds of skates?

They're used for different purposes-- figure skates for jumps and spins and speed skates for speed.


When the kinetic energy of atoms increases thermal energy increases or decreases?

Thermal energy (temperature) is the measurement of kinetic energy of atoms moving in a substance, therefore, as the speed (kinetic energy) of these atoms increases, thermal energy increases as well.


If thermal energy is added to matter do the particles move slower?

No - they speed up
