How hot or cold something is, it is determined by the kinetic energy of its particles
Real World Example
Imagine trying to navigate a crowded room where everyone is moving at different speeds. Just like the challenge of finding your way through the room depends on how quickly or slowly people are moving, the temperature of an object is determined by how fast its particles are moving. If people in the room are moving quickly, it’s chaotic and warm, much like high kinetic energy means high temperature; if they're moving slowly and calmly, it’s cooler and more relaxed, similar to low kinetic energy indicating a lower temperature.
