A blacksmith strikes a piece of metal with a hammer repeatedly. The metal slowly begins to shine as the temperature increases and the metal becomes more malleable. What changes at the microscopic level led to the visible changes in the properties of the metal? Average particle temperature increased
The potential energy of the particles has decreased
The kinetic energy of the particles has decreased
Average particle speed increased I did it for the boys the answers are
1. Temperature
2. Average particle speed has increased
3.Heat changes from hot to cold and is the transfer of thermal energy
4. Molecules will have more potential energy due to their arrangement.
1) Temperature
2) The average particle speed has increased.
3) Heat flows from hot to cold and constitutes the transfer of thermal energy.
4) Molecules will have more potential energy due to their freedom of movement. The answer to the 3rd question is “Heat flows from hot to cold and is the transfer of thermal energy”. I chose “Heat passes from cold to hot and is the transfer of thermal energy”. by mistake so be sure to read what you chose just to make sure you understood it correctly. But yes, Nic is right on all questions, thank you! I love this site the third is not correct
