Energy transfers in a washing machine?
Washing machine converts electrical energy into kinetic energy. It helps in washing the clothes.
Is energy gained or lost when it converts from kinetic to thermal due to friction?
The total energy of course won't change - you won't "gain" or "lose" energy (First Law of Thermodynamics). However, note that you are basically converting useful energy into unusable energy (Second Law of Thermodynamics).
What kind of energy conversions take place in a loudspeaker?
At first SOUND energy converts to ELECTRICALenergy which once again converts to SOUND energy.
When you turn on a fan electrical energy changes into?
The electrical energy is converted to kinetic energy and heat. The kinetic energy is first seen in the blades of the fan as they rotate. This kinetic energy is converted to air movement, another form of kinetic energy. The electrical energy isn't fully converted to kinetic energy but turns into heat. This is generated by the magnetic fields of the motor and friction. Both of these are considered to be losses of energy but in fact they are simply a conversion to a form of energy that is not of use.
How kinetic energy and potential energy vary?
Well, the most potential energy is when your going slow or your stopped. The most kinetic energy is like at the bottom of a hill over the first hump in a rollarcoaster, when your going your fastest. Your speed and probably friction will affect it.

Describe a stone falling off the tabletop in terms of both kinetic energy and potential energy?
Sitting on the table the stone has potential energy, relative to the ground, of weight times height, mgh. It has zero kinetic energy so its total energy is E = 0 + mgh. When it begins falling it loses potential energy (as it loses height) and gains kinetic energy ( as it picks up speed) so the sum stays the same as initially E = KE + PE = mgh. Just before it hits the ground all of its potential energy is gone and has been transformed into kinetic energy. So the kinetic energy at the bottom (1/2)mv^2 will equal the potential energy at the top.

A roller coaster going down the first hill is an example of what type of energy?
It is kinetic energy because it is in motion.Jesus loves you! A car rolling down a hill is an example of which type of energy?kinetic...Potential energy
What energy occurs first potential or kinetic?
Energy is possessed by virtue of position, shape or motion or all the three properties. Generally potential energy is at first stored in a body which is released as kinetic energy when the body is in motion. But suppose if a body is thrown upwards vertically its kinetic energy gets converted into potential energy.
What level of kinetic energy do particles evaporate first?
Ones with the most energy
How can energy be kinetic?
If you fired a bullet vertically upward, it would have kinetic energy at first, when it gets to the top of its travel this would all have been converted to potential energy.
If a roller coaster car is pulled by a chain at the beginning of the ride what kind of energy is present at this point?
The motor that drives the chain is being fuelled with electrical energy, which it converts into kinetic energy to move the chain. The chain supplies the rollercoaster carriage with kinetic energy and (hence why its harder to pull something up a slope) gravitational-potential energy. When the chain releases the carriage, and it speeds down the track, it converts its GPE into kinetic energy and thermal/sound wastes.
