Question

The temperature of a body is:




a measure of degrees based on the Rankine cycle


a measure of how high is its warmth


a measure of the speed at which the body's molecules vibrate


a scientific measure used to compare different temperature scales

Answer 1

The third option. Temperature corresponds to the average kinetic energy (motion) of a body's particles — often described as how fast molecules move or vibrate — rather than being tied to a specific cycle or just a vague sense of "warmth."
