Answer:

kinetic energy

Step-by-step explanation:

When the molecules or atoms of a substance have high kinetic energy, the atoms/molecules move rapidly and collide frequently and harder. Most collisions are inelastic meaning that some of the energy in the collision is lost mostly as heat. This is why increasing the kinetic energy of a substance’ atoms/molecules causes the temperatures of the substance to rise. This is how heating by magnetic induction works.
