Metal is heated from room temperature to 200°C.

Metal is at room temperature, 37°C.
Metal is at room temperature, 37°C.

Metal is cooled at 1,300°C.
Metal is cooled at 1,300°C.

Metal is melted at 1,300°C.

Answer 1

The kinetic energy of particles would be increasing in the case where metal is heated from room temperature to 200°C. Heating the metal increases the energy of the particles, causing them to move more rapidly, which corresponds to an increase in kinetic energy.
