People often think of temperature as how hot or cold something is. But what exactly is temperature?This rubber ball contains many small, moving particles.Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. Every substance is made up of particles. The temperature of a substance is related to the kinetic energies of these particles. If a substance is hot, its particles tend to have a large amount of kinetic energy.The particles in a substance have kinetic energy because they are moving. The particles are constantly in motion, even if the substance does not appear to be moving.Select all of the statements that are true about the rubber ball shown above.

Answer 1

Based on the provided information about temperature and the rubber ball, the following statements can be considered true:

1. Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy.
2. Every substance is made up of particles.
3. The temperature of a substance is related to the kinetic energies of its particles.
4. If a substance (like the rubber ball) is hot, its particles tend to have a large amount of kinetic energy.
5. The particles in a substance (like the rubber ball) are constantly in motion, even if the substance does not appear to be moving.

If you have specific statements in mind that you would like to evaluate as true or false, please provide them, and I can help you determine their validity.
