Practise using kelvin temperature as a measure proportional to average molecular kinetic energy, including graphs and particle calculations.
A student uses a computer simulation to investigate the motion of particles in a gas.
He records the pressure of the gas and the mean speed of the particles in the gas at different temperatures.
The graphs show his results.
Graph 1
Graph 2
The student then calculates the kinetic energy of a single gas particle at each temperature.
On the axes, sketch a graph of the average kinetic energy of the gas particles against temperature in kelvin.
