Explain the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy within a substance.
As temperature increases, the kinetic energy within a substance also increases. The same is true for the inverse. As temperature decreases, so does kinetic energy.

Explain how inertia and the seatbelts in a vehicle are related.
Seatbelts in a vehicle help counteract inertia, which is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. When a car suddenly stops, your body wants to keep moving forward because of inertia. Seatbelts apply a force to hold you in place, preventing you from continuing forward and potentially getting injured.
