Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf Temperature=Average \ kinetic \ energy}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Temperature is also known as the average kinetic energy in a substance.

If there is an absence of heat in a substance, the particles move slower and the kinetic energy decreases. The temperature will be lower, because there is less kinetic energy.

If heat is present or applied, the particles move more, so kinetic energy increases. The temperature will be higher, since there is more kinetic energy.

So, the relationship is: temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy.
