The incorrect statement about electromagnetic waves is C. induction of electric fields by changing magnetic fields only occurs if a conducting material is present.
Electromagnetic waves do not rely on any medium for propagation, which means that the generation of fields is irrespective of the presence of a conducting material.
This question is asking you to determine if individual atoms or systems, or both have these types of energy. A system would be "all the molecules or atoms" whereas an individual atom is "each of the molecules or atoms."
Answers:
A. All the molecules or atoms in motion have kinetic energy.
B. Each molecule or atom in motion has kinetic energy.
D. All the molecules or atoms in motion have thermal energy.
The only incorrect answer is C because individual atoms don't have thermal energy, only when they interact with other atoms. Still, atoms do have kinetic energy, which has the potential to turn into heat energy in these interactions.
Hope this helps!
