Given what we know, as with all substances, the particles in the bowl of hot soup will slow down as they cool after being poured.
<h3>Why do particles slow when cooled?</h3>
This has to do with energy.
The soup particles are excited by heat energy.
As the soup is poured, its heat energy radiates and it loses energy.
Decreased energy causes the particles to slow down.
Therefore, the motion of the particles of the soup decrease or slows down as the soup cools due to the loss of energy they are experiencing. The soup radiates heat energy into the room or plate, causing the particles to lose energy and slow down.
