how on heating a liquid at its boiling point heat energy converted to potential energy?
You are transferring the heat into the water and changing it into steam. Steam has potential energy that can be released by cooling and expansion. This potential energy is released either in heat or can be converted back to kinetic energy by its expansion. This is how power plants work. Some fuel is burned to heat water to steam. Which contains potential energy converted from the heat of the burning fuel. This potential energy releases heat and kinetic energy as it is allowed to expand pushing and driving the turbines that turn the electric generators, and thus the kinetic energy is, by way of the generator converted to electric energy.
When you burn a fossil fuel what is the potential energy converted to?
When you burn a fossil fuel, the potential energy stored in the fuel is converted into kinetic energy, heat, and light. This process releases energy that can be used to generate electricity, power vehicles, and provide heat for various applications.
When bomb explodes which form of enery is converted to which energy?
When a bomb explodes, the chemical potential energy stored in the explosive material is rapidly converted into thermal energy (heat), light energy, sound energy, and kinetic energy (expansion of gases).
Which describes the energy conversions used to make a car down the street?
Assuming it just rolls down a slope, without the engines working: gravitational potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy. The kinetic energy will eventually be converted to heat energy.
When a match is burned chemical potential energy is converted to thermal and what energy?
radient energy
Is nuclear energy potential energy or kinectic energy?
Until converted, it is potential energy. However, to make nuclear energy domestically useful it is converted into thermal (thermodynamic) energy (heat), which, in turn, is converted into electrical energy, both of which are kinetic energy.
Use the law of conservation of energy to describe what happens to the potential energy of a rock when it is dropped from your hand and strikes the ground?
When the rock is dropped, it loses potential energy as it falls due to gravity. This potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, increasing the rock's speed. When the rock strikes the ground, all its potential energy is converted into sound and heat energy upon impact.
When an orange rolls off a table its potential energy is converted into what?
The potential energy is progressively changed to kinetic energy as the orange falls. When it hits the ground most of it is converted to heat.
When a stretched string is released the potential energy in the string is converted to .?
Kinetic energy and then to heat.
Why not all potential energy is converted to kinetic energy in roller coaster?
Not all potential energy is converted to kinetic energy in a roller coaster because some of the potential energy is lost due to friction, air resistance, and other forms of energy dissipation. This loss of energy results in not all of the potential energy being transformed into kinetic energy.
What kind of energy is coverted when you burn gasoline?
Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.Chemical energy is converted into heat energy.
As an object falls in free fall what energy is taking place?
Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the object gains speed. A small amount of that energy is converted in heat by air resistance and the remaining kinetic energy is normally converted to heat when it strikes the ground. Some energy may be converted into other forms of energy depending on impact speed.
