The higher the temperature something has, the faster the molecules are moving. Water at 34\u00b0F has molecules moving much more slowly than water at 150\u00b0F. Temperature is really a molecular speedometer.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s make a quick thermometer so you can see how a thermometer actually works.<\/p>\n<p>When something feels hot to you, the molecules in that something are moving very fast. When something feels cool to you, the molecules in that object aren\u2019t moving quite so fast. Believe it or not, your body perceives how fast molecules are moving by how hot or cold something feels. Your body has a variety of antennae to detect energy. Your eyes perceive certain frequencies of electromagnetic waves as light. Your ears perceive certain frequencies of longitudinal waves as sound. Your skin, mouth and tongue can perceive thermal energy as hot or cold. What a magnificent energy sensing instrument you are!<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.superchargedscience.com\/membership_policy.htm\">Membership Policy<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencelearningspace.com\/privacy-policy\/\">Privacy Policy<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superchargedscience.com\/contact.htm\">Contact Us<\/a><\/h2>\n<h2>\u00a9 Supercharged Science.
