What form of energy do muscles wind and running water show when they work?
All these things are moving. Energy of movement is kinetic energy.
How energy differ from work energy?
Energy denotes work in (en-ergy). Work can be energy or exergy ( work out).
Can you get energy from water?
If it is moving you can. You can't get energy from plain water, but you can get energy from ignition of hydrogen and oxygen forming water (that's how hydrogen cars work). The reverse reaction uses up energy.
How does hydroeletric power work?
Hydroelectric power utilises the gravitational potential of an elevated body of water by converting its kinetic energy into electrical energy as the water is permitted to flow downhill through a turbine
Is work the transfer of energy?
No, work is change in kinetic energy. Answer2: Work IS energy. Energy is input work and exergy is output work.
What type of renewable energy that requires water to work?
Thermal energy
How is a river potential energy changed into kinetic energy?
As gravity pulls water down a slope, the water's potential energy changes to kinetic energy that can do work.
How does a hydroelectricity power plant work?
convert energy from falling water to electrical energy?
What form of energy do muscles wind and running water show when they work?
All these things are moving. Energy of movement is kinetic energy.
How are work and heat related?
because of the path functions ..Answer'Work' (symbol: W) describes the transfer of energy from one form into another. For example, an electric motor changes kinetic energy into electrical energy. 'Heat' (symbol: Q) describes the transfer of energy from a warmer body to a cooler body. For example, energy is lost from an electrical conductor if its temperature is higher than its surroundings. Scientists describe both work and heat as 'energy in transit'. Both share the same unit of measurement, the joule.In other words, work and heat are the only two methods of manipulating energy. And they are very much related to each other.For example, and electric kettle does work on the water by converting electrical energy into the internal energy (i.e. the energy associated with the vibration of atoms within any body) of the water (and of the kettle itself). This increase in internal energy results in the temperature of the water increasing above the ambient temperature and, so, energy is lost to the surroundings through heat transfer. So the amount by which the internal energy of the water has increased must be the difference between the work done on the water, and the heat transfer away from the water, that is:increase in internal energy = work - heatThis equation summarises the general relationship between work and heat.
How does the storage system work in hydroelectric energy?
When there is excess electricity, water is pumped up into a reservoir. Then, when the energy is needed, engineers open a valve and the water pours through the dam via a turbine, which generates energy. The water thus stores energy by having potential energy due to height.
What energy is used to make water boil?
this web page doesnt work that well
How energy differ from work energy?
Energy denotes work in (en-ergy). Work can be energy or exergy ( work out).
What happens to the potential energy of the water in a river as gravity pulls the water downhill?
Since potential energy is proportional to elevation, the potential energy of water gets less and less as it goes downhill.Its kinetic energy (based on velocity) may well increase, but the question asked about potential energy.
Can you get energy from water?
If it is moving you can. You can't get energy from plain water, but you can get energy from ignition of hydrogen and oxygen forming water (that's how hydrogen cars work). The reverse reaction uses up energy.
How can you storage of electrical power?
You cannot store power any more than you can store velocity, because it is simply a 'rate' -the rate of doing work. In order to do work you can store potential energy in, for example, the form of water held behind a dam. When the water is allowed to pass through a turbine, that turbine does work by converting this energy into electrical energy.
What two processes occur when water falls to the ground?
The water heats up very slightly as the gravitational potential energy is converted into heat.The kinetic energy of the water is turned into work in excavating a hole at the base of the waterfalll.
