Question

How do thermometers relate to the kinetic energy of particles of matter?

Can someone please help quick I need help and I need the answer to be at least a couple of sentences

I have no clue what the answer is but this is only the second question I have posted on here so I'm not just a person taking answers from you teachers

The temperature of a substance is a measure of the kinetic energy of that material. KE = 1/2 mv^2. As the kinetic energy rises the temperature rises. The thermometer measures the temperature.
