When Temperature increases, Kinetic energy of the system increases, and the particles move faster, as the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the velocity

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

Answer: The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of the particle.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. Kinetic energy increases with the increase in the velocity.

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature.

Therefore, the movement of the particle increases when the temperature increases.
