Particle Motion Worksheet

Use this particle motion worksheet as you introduce particle motion due to thermal energy. It reinforces the basics – that adding thermal energy makes particles move faster and spread apart, and that removing thermal energy makes particles slow down and contract. Each question requires a bit of diagram analysis or critical thinking, but the basic theme of each question is more heat = more motion/volume and less heat = less motion/volume.
