Answer

Thermal energy is the Average kinetic energy of the particles in an object , and internal energy is the total energy of the particles in an object .

Step-by-step explanation

The thermal energy of the system is the average kinetic energy of the system's constituent particles due to their motion. The total internal energy of the system is the sum of the kinetic energies and the potential energies of its constituent particles.
