What is the study of relationships between heat work and thermal energy?
Thermodynamics is the study of the relationship between thermal energy and heat and work.
Why does heat consider as a form of energy?
Energy is defined as the ability to do work. When a body is supplied with heat,the body gains the tendency to do work.thus heat has the capacity to do work hence heat is considered as a form of energy
What activities produces heat energy?
work produces heat
What device converts heat energy to work?
A heat engine.
Why heat cannot be converted into work and why work can be converted into heat?
A lower order energy cannot be completely coverted into a higher order energy. Heat energy is a lower order energy and work is higher order energy. Therefore it is not possible to convert heat into work without loosing some energy according to the second law of thermodynamics. But a higher order energy can be coverted completely into lower order energy and it will not violate the second law of thermodynamics.
What type of energy involve in work and heat?
Work is simply the transfer of energy. Heat energy is also known as thermal energy.
What is the capacity to do work or produce heat?
Energy is the capacity to do work or to produce heat.
What is the heat engine?
A heat engine is a system that converts heat to usable energy, particularly mechanical energy, which can then be used to do mechanical work

Why is heat form of energy?
It can do work.
What activities produces heat energy?
work produces heat
What device converts heat energy to work?
A heat engine.
Why is heat energy a low grade energy and work a high grade energy?
Because heat gives off energy and is the first part of the energy cycle. Heat is the beginning of cold, and many other things.
Why heat cannot be converted into work and why work can be converted into heat?
A lower order energy cannot be completely coverted into a higher order energy. Heat energy is a lower order energy and work is higher order energy. Therefore it is not possible to convert heat into work without loosing some energy according to the second law of thermodynamics. But a higher order energy can be coverted completely into lower order energy and it will not violate the second law of thermodynamics.
What energy transformations occur in sparklers?
Chemical energy to heat, which creates pressure and then work is done.
What are the forms of energy that can produce heat energy?
Heat is generally considered as a resultant of other energy reactions, which is why it is considered to be related to kinetic energy. All types of energy (the ability to do work) can produce heat energy.
