What else can I help you with?
Does thermal energy affect mass?
No, thermal energy does not affect mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object contains, while thermal energy is a measure of the internal energy of an object due to the movement of its particles.
How does contracting a protostar convert gravitational energy into thermal energy?
Sliding friction tends to convert kinetic energy into thermal energy, thermal energy being heat, kinetic energy being movement.
What devices convert electrical energy to thermal energy?
Toasters, electric heaters, and hair dryers are just a few devices that convert electrical energy to thermal energy.
How can one calculate thermal energy from kinetic energy?
To calculate thermal energy from kinetic energy, you can use the equation: Thermal energy 1/2 mass velocity2. This formula relates the kinetic energy of an object (determined by its mass and velocity) to the thermal energy it produces.
How does mass effect thermal energy?
Mass affects thermal energy by determining the amount of kinetic energy particles have. Greater mass means more particles vibrating, resulting in higher thermal energy. Additionally, more massive objects can hold onto thermal energy for longer periods due to their higher heat capacity.
How do you convert thermal energy to mechanical energy?
heat engine
A device that can convert thermal energy into electrical energy?
a Thermocouple
What device can convert thermal energy into electrical energy?
Thermocouple
What Unlike other forms of energy thermal energy is not easy to?
Thermal energy is the most difficult to convert into other forms of energy.
What do brakes do?
A vehicals brakes convert kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction and dissipate the thermal energy into the atmosphere
What type of energy does a heater convert?
It converts electric energy to thermal energy
What three factors affect thermal energy?
raising of object temperature, the mass, specific heat
