What is a low-LET radiation?
high-linear energy transfer
What causes the transfer of thermal energy?
Thermal energy transfer from high temperature to low temperature. The cause of transfer is the temperature difference.
How does energy transfer?
hot to cold, fast to slow, high to low.
What is the transfer of thermal energy from a high temperature to a low temperature?
That is called conduction.
What is the opposite of not high?
The opposite of not high is high.The opposite of high is low.
Why does heat transfers from high temperature to low temperature body?
This is due to statistics. It is quite possible for a low-energy particle (atom or molecule) to transfer energy to a high-energy particle, but on average, more energy will be transferred the other way.
What is the definitions of opposite of high?
Low is the opposite of high.
What is opposite world of high?
the opposite world of high is low.
Differentiate a heat pump from a heat engine A refrigerator is a heat pump. Find out how refrigerator works?
Heat pumps can transfer energy in either direction (from a state of high energy (heat) to a state of low energy (cold) or vice-versa). Heat engines transfer energy from a high-heat (high energy) to low-heat (cold/low-energy) state and in the process, convert the excess into mechanical energy. Refrigerators transfer energy from a low-heat (low-energy) to a high-heat (high-energy) state using the aptly named refrigeration cycle. An energy storing medium (refrigerant) is collects excess heat (ie. freon/R-134 is condensed to become a liquid, which, as it collects heat, becomes a gas). The refrigerant is then condensed to release the stored energy (heat), which is exhausted to the atmosphere, and returned to the system to start the process all over again.
What is the opposite of high?
How about low?
Which type of energy transfer occurs when water is heated on a hot plate?
It is called conduction. The molecules vibrate and the energy transferred between molecules from a high temperature area to a low temperature area.
What is the opposite of thermal energy?
There is no opposite of thermal energy.Thermal energy is energy that comes from heat, and therefore comparable to temperature. There is no "opposite of temperature," and there is no "opposite of thermal energy."If an object has high thermal energy, it is hot. The opposite of that would be having low thermal energy, or being cold.
