Answer:
Its Temperature.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body while in motion. Potential energy on the other hand is the energy possessed by a body based on its position.
- Kinetic energy of a body is determined by the equation; K.E = 3RT/2;
- From the equation, kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature of the system and therefore an increase in the kinetic energy of a sample causes an increase in temperature of the system.
