What is temperature? Using the example of the pot of boiling water, describe how you think temperature is related to thermal energy.

An example would be "The soup is boiling hot and has a temperature of 100 °C, whereas the water in the tub is just comfortably warm, with a temperature of about 38 °C. Although the water in the tub has a much lower temperature, it has greater thermal energy".

Explanation:

Thermal energy and temperature are closely related. Both reflect the kinetic energy of moving particles of matter. However, temperature is the average kinetic energy of particles of matter, whereas thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of particles of matter.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
