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

What are the energy changes that occur in a toaster in a radio and in a windmill used to generate electricity?

In a toaster, electrical energy is converted to thermal energy to heat the coils. In a radio, electrical energy is converted to sound energy through the speakers. In a windmill used to generate electricity, the kinetic energy of the wind is converted to electrical energy through the rotation of the turbine.


What is a solar powered radio?

Its a radio that uses a solar cell to generate the electricity to run it.


Can static electricity light up a light bulb or power a radio?

Static electricity typically does not have enough power to light up a light bulb or power a radio on its own. The voltage produced by static electricity is usually too low to generate a significant amount of energy to power these devices.


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.


Is a radio mechanical energy?

No. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic waves.


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.


What is energy from the sun known as?

solar The sun releases electromagnetic energy in the entire EM spectrum from radio waves up to Gamma radiation


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


When you turn on a tv what other forms energy is produced besides electricity and light?

When you turn on a TV, in addition to electricity and light energy, heat energy is also produced. This is because electronic devices like TVs generate heat as a byproduct of their operation. Additionally, electromagnetic radiation is emitted in the form of radio frequency signals as the TV receives and processes information from broadcast sources.
