Answer:Temperature

Step-by-step explanation:

Average kinetic energy of a system of particles is given by
(f)/(2) kT.

where,


f is the number of degrees of freedom of the particles.


k is the boltzmann constant.


T is the temperature.

For general gases,


f=3

For a given degrees of freedom,average kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

So,the average kinetic energy depends on temperature.
