Think of average kinetic energy like the 'teamwork' score of particles in motion – it’s the total kinetic energy divided by the number of particles.
Average kinetic energy in a system depends on temperature: higher temperature means higher kinetic energy, simple as that!
It's basically the total kinetic energy of a system divided by the number of particles—boom, done!
