What are examples of conversion of heat energy to kinetic energy?
A steam engine comes to mind. Heat from burning coal or oil was used to heat water in a pressure cylinder. The force from the steam being let out of the cylinder under pressure pushed a piston that in turn pushed a rod mounted off center of the drive wheel to cause it to turn.
The function of the condenser is too increase refrigeration pressure lose the heat from the refrigerant add heat to the refrigerant reduce the fridge aration pressure?
lose the heat from the refrigerant
Explain whether or not a heat engine could be made 100 percent efficient by eliminating friction?
Even if the friction were totally eliminated, a heat engine still could not convert heat completely into work and be 100 percent efficient. Instead, the efficiency of an internal combustion engine depends on the difference in the temperature of the burning gases in the cylinder and the temperature of the burning gases in the cylinder and the temperature of the air outside the engine.
Why are metal fins made as a part of the cylinder?
it is covering outside the cylinder of an engine. it is added to the cylinder head and walls in order to increase the surface area that can radiate the heat to the air pgassing by.
Which term describes a machine that converts heat into work?
Heat Engine Heat Engine
Does having the heat on reduce engine temperature?
yes it does reduce your heat temperature
How do you get a gas to a liquid?
Either heat it and/or reduce the pressure.

In the cylinder of an automobile engine the chemical energy of gasoline is initially transformed into what?
Into heat.
Which form of energy does a car's engine convert into mechanical energy?
A car engine converts the heat energy contained in the hot high-pressure gases in the cylinder into mechanical energy. The heat comes from the formation of chemical bonds between carbon and oxygen, and between hydrogen and oxygen, when the hydrocarbon fuel is burnt with the air in the cylinder at the top of each power stroke.
Do glow plugs stay on after ignition?
Glow plugs need electricity while starting the engine. After that, they do not use electricity, but stay red hot due to the heat of combustion and pressure within the cylinder.
How do you reduce evaporation rate in boiling water?
Fit a lid or reduce the heat Evaporation rate will actually increase if you boil water at increased pressure as the vapour pressure, to achieve boiling, must increase to that pressure.
How does engine produce heat?
From the result of combustion during the power stroke of each cylinder.
Where is the the oil pressure switch on a 2005 Chrysler Sebring 2.7l?
The oil pressure sensor is on the back side of the engine. It is above the oil pan, behind a heat shield.The oil pressure sensor is on the back side of the engine. It is above the oil pan, behind a heat shield.
What factors reduce the efficiency of a heat engine from its ideal value.?
friction, imperfect insulation
