Light can excite molecules which can generate a force. One example is the pressure differential produced inside a radiometer, causing it to spin.
What else can I help you with?
Is light mechanical energy?
Light is not mechanical energy but it can be transformed into mechanical energy. Light creates an impact as it hits a surface.
Which energy changes takes place when a pedling cyclist uses a generator to light his bicycle lamp?
There are 2 energy changes that take place in this action: Mechanical to Light Energy and Mechanical to Electrical Energy. To explain further, when a generator, which uses mechanical energy, is used in turn to light up the bicycle lamp, the light emitted is light energy. At the same time, when the generator lights up the bicycle lamp, the lamp is light up using electrical energy, so mechanical energy also transformed into electrical energy. ===============================> heat and light (in the light bulb)
Is mechanical energy coming from light and heat?
Mechanical energy does not come directly from light and heat. Light and heat are forms of energy, but they do not typically convert into mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is typically associated with the motion or position of an object.
If you turn a bolt with a screwdriver what kind of energy is it?
The energy used to turn a bolt with a screwdriver is mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is converted from the work done to rotate the bolt, transferring energy from the screwdriver to the bolt.
What are the Examples of conversion of mechanical energy into light energy?
Examples of conversion of mechanical energy into light energy include a light bulb, which converts electrical energy (generated by a mechanical source like a power plant) into light energy through the heating of a filament, and a hand-crank flashlight, which converts mechanical energy from the hand-crank into light energy through the activation of a dynamo or generator.
What is A sentence using mechanical energy in it?
The moving car has mechanical energy as its wheels turn and propel it forward.
Is a flashlight a mechanical energy?
No, a flashlight does not generate mechanical energy. Instead, it uses electrical energy to power the light bulb and produce light.
How does mechanical energy convert to light energy?
One method which this could happen is you have mechanical energy, lets say you riding a bike, and attach a turbine to it which converts your mechanical energy into electrical energy. You then plug a light bulb into that, and the electric energy is converted into light.
Which object converts electrical energy to mechanical energy a light bulb a fan or a television?
-- radio transmitter = electrical energy into electromagnetic energy -- microwave oven = heat energy -- electric motor = mechanical -- toaster = heat -- light bulb = heat and light -- battery charger = chemical -- blow drier = mechanical -- coffee percolator = mechanical -- electric fan= mechanical -- flashlight = light -- electric kitchen mixer = mechanical
Light and sound differ is?
Light is electrical energy and sound is mechanical energy.
What other forms of energy are produced when the appliances are turn on?
When appliances are turned on, electrical energy is converted into various other forms of energy depending on the appliance. Common forms include light energy (for light bulbs), thermal energy (for heaters), and mechanical energy (for fans or motors).
Example of mechanical energy to light energy?
When a hand-crank flashlight is operated, the mechanical energy from turning the crank is converted into electrical energy, which is then converted into light energy by the light bulb in the flashlight. This demonstrates the transformation of mechanical energy into light energy through intermediate electrical energy.
