Radio waves when they contact metal cause the metal's electrons to move (away from the atoms they are nearest) -- electricity.

What is a solar powered radio?
Its a radio that uses a solar cell to generate the electricity to run it.
How does a microwave work in terms of electricity?
It works by bombarding the food inside it with microwave (radio wave) energy. This causes the molecules inside the food to become excited and generate heat.
What does radio transmitter change electricity to?
A radio transmitter changes most of the electricity that it gets from a wall outlet or a battery to heat. A small portion of it becomes energy that radiates out from the transmitting antenna and can be detected by receivers some distance away.
Does a microwave use radiant energy?
Both microwave radio transmitters and microwave ovens generate and pour out radiant energy.
Is electricity considered an energy resource?
Sometimes, but electricity isn't an energy SOURCE; it's an energy CONDUIT. Electricity is how we get energy from one place to another, and how we use it when it gets there. Electricity doesn't stand still; at least, not naturally. We generate electricity with generators that use some other power source to spin a turbine; a jet engine, for example, or falling water, or steam. The electricity goes through a wire to where we use it by converting it into some other form; light, or heat, or music, or radio transmissions. We can store electricity in a battery, but that's a very inefficient process so far. And the electricity doesn't really do us any good until we convert it into something else.
What objects use energy?
The use of nuclear energy in civilian society is to generate electricity. In the military it is to make bombs (and hopefully not use them). There are also some uses in medicine where radio isotopes can be used for diagnosis and treatment. These isotopes are produced by irradiation in low power reactors which enable short lived radio isotopes to be obtained as required.
What resources can be used to generate electricity?
well, you can always use a generator. theyre found at most radio shacks. ask them about how it works
How do you make radio wave in Doodle God?
Void+electricity
How is wind energy converted into light energy?
Wind power turns a turbine generator to produce electricity. Light is a form of electricity and electricity can be converted to light by light bulbs and fluorescent lighting, andd radio signals.
What types of energy can electricity transform into is there more than 1?
I think so. -- Use electricity to charge a battery ==> it becomes chemical energy -- Use electricity to toast bread in the toaster ==> it becomes heat energy -- Use electricity to drive a golf cart ==> it becomes kinetic energy -- Use an electric crane to lift I-beams to the second story ==> it becomes potential energy -- Use electricity to run a fan ==> it becomes wind energy -- Use electricity to operate a radio transmitter ==> it becomes radio energy -- Use electricity to bake a turkey in 10 seconds ==> it becomes microwave energy -- Use electricity to run the washing machine ==> it becomes water-wave energy -- Use electricity to film an image of a broken leg ==> it becomes x-ray energy -- Use electricity to run a particle accelerator for research ==> it becomes nuclear energy -- Use electricity to read a comic book under the covers ==> it becomes light energy -- Use electricity to play a CD on the boom-box ==> it becomes sound energy
How would you define green energy?
•Energy allows us to generate electricity needed for our homes, schools, factories - for powering household appliances such as radio, computer, television etc. Energy enables people to travel.•Green Energy Resources is dedicated to working with power generating utilities, government, and corporations for carbon emission strategies, and is the only American company selected to supply the Euro Energy Group
What takes the most energy to generate microwave or ex ray?
An X ray takes more energy to generate because it is higher frequency (second in shortest wavelength only to gamma rays). Microwaves are just higher frequency radio waves.
