Solution Summary

The expert examines the states of matter/gas/motion/force of molecules.

Solution Preview

The molecules in a gas at rest are going to have much less energy than the molecules in a tornado. Therefore, they will move much more slowly. The more energy the molecules have, the faster they will move. ...
