Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Thermal energy is defined as the internal energy of an object because of the kinetic energy present within the molecules of the object.
So, when thermal energy is added to an object then kinetic energy within its molecules will also increase. As a result, temperature of the object will also increase due to increase in number of collisions between the molecules.
Therefore, we can conclude that the statement energy that is associated with temperature, describes thermal energy.
