Thermal Energy is a form of kinetic energy, or the energy of moving objects. Thermal energy is energy an object has when it is not being disturbed by an outside force. For example, if you leave a book on the floor, it had thermal energy. But if you push the book, the thermal energy is converted to kinetic energy, or the energy of movement. Though the type of energy is being changed, the total amount of energy in the object is kept the same.

∙ 12y agoWell when something is putting force on something (Mechanical) the LOCE says two usually result one is mainly heat blah blah blah anyway everyone knows thermal energy is heat so if the force is making heat then they are related. Warning this is from a 6th grader so correct me if im wrong.

The SI unit of electrical mechanical and thermal energy?
Joule
How can nuclear fission generate electrical power?
Nuclear fission process results in thermal energy production (this due to mass difference before and after of fission). This thermal energy is transferred to reactor coolant system. Then the thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy through turbines. The mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy through electric generators.
What did Robert brown say thermal energy was related to?
it was related light energy
What are 3 types of energy collected by telescopes?
Three types of energy that are collected by telescopes are Light energy, Mechanical energy and Thermal energy.
What forms of energy does a vibrating speaker use?
a speaker converts electrical energy into mechanical energy also called kinetic energy some energy is also lost in the form of thermal energy.
What is an example of the transfer from thermal energy to mechanical energy?
steam engine mechanism.(converts thermal energy to mechanical.)
What are four forms of energy related to change in matter?
The answer i got is Forms of energy related to changes in matter include thermal energy, chemical energy, electromagnetic energy, and electrical energy.
Mechanical energy be converted to thermal energy?
rubbing handsMechanical energy converted to thermal energy
What is device that transforms thermal energy to mechanical energy?
Steam engine is a device that transforms thermal energy into mechanical energy. An internal combustion engine (I.C Engine) can transform thermal energy into mechanical energy. In nuclear power plant also the heat energy released is used to turn the turbine and thus thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy of rotation of turbine. This mechanical energy of turbine is further converted into electrical energy in generator.
What are six forms of energy related to changes of matter?
mechanical,thermal,chemical,electromagnetic,electrical,and nuclear
List of examples of energy conversions?
List of examples of energy conversions1. Electric Generator (Mechanical Energy into Electrical Energy)2. Electric Motor (Electrical Energy into Mechanical Energy)3. Steam Engine (Thermal Energy into Mechanical Energy)4. Diesel or Petrol Engine (Chemical Energy into Mechanical Energy)5. Stove (Chemical Energy into Thermal Energy)6. Electric Bulb (Electrical Energy into Thermal and Light Energy)7. Cellular Respiration (Chemical Energy into Thermal and Mechanical Energy)
Is burning coal mechanical energy?
Burning coal is thermal energy. It can be used to produce mechanical energy.
What causes some mechanical energy to change to thermal energy?
Normally, friction between moving surfaces causes mechanical energy to convert to thermal energy (heat), as in the brakes of most cars.
How do you convert thermal energy to mechanical energy?
heat engine
What is Thermal energy that is converted into mechanical energy?
steam engine
I hate engine converts thermal energy into what?
mechanical energy
What energy helps us walk thermal or mechanical?
Mechanical energy helps us walk.
