Temperature is the average kinetic energy of particles; Thick glass jugs crack when hot water is poured due to uneven expansion.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.
When hot water is poured into a thick glass jug, the inner layer of the glass expands due to the heat faster than the outer layer. This creates stress that can lead to cracking.
Example: Pyrex® glass has a smaller coefficient of linear expansion, making it more resistant to thermal stresses compared to regular glass.
