Correct Answer: Kinetic energy


Solution : The correct option is kinetic energy.

The provided heat energy is mostly stored in the form of kinetic energy of the particles inside the material during a change in temperature. The increased motion and vibration of the atoms and molecules as they absorb heat energy results in this kinetic energy. As the material absorbs heat, its particles gain kinetic energy, causing them to travel faster and raise in temperature. When heat energy is lost from a substance, the kinetic energy of its particles diminishes, causing the temperature to fall. As a result, particle kinetic energy is an important aspect in how heat energy impacts a substance's temperature.
