Means of transport which changes chemical energy into kinetic energy?

Many engines do this conversion. For example, the engines commonly found in cars convert the chemical energy first to heat (by burning it), then convert part of this heat into movement (kinetic energy).

Where can you find a unit conversion calculator?

Use an internet search engine such as Google, Yahoo or Live.com and it will direct you to several free and commercial unit conversion tools. Some internet search engines can convert between units directly in them. Type in the units you want to convert from and it may suggest common conversions for you directly.


Why is there a white triangle under the space shuttle engines when they are lit?

Why is there a white triangle under the space shuttle engines when they are lit? Within the flame produced by a lit space shuttle engine, there are temperature and pressure differences causing the flame to appear in different colors. The white triagle is made the by the shape of the space shuttle engine in combination with these temperature and pressure differences.

Yes


How do you convert a normal remote control car into a gas powered car?

You don't. If you need to ask the question, you're not likely to be able to handle the complicated conversion process (also, I don't think you can find gasoline engines that are small enough; you can buy liquid fuel engines, but they don't run on gasoline, the fuel they use is more like diesel fuel).


What is the difference between ic engine and ec engine?

IC & EC engines are heat engines and they convert heat into work. Example of an IC engine is a petrol engine and example of an EC engine is Steam Engine. The main differences between them are listed below: 1) Combustion: The main difference is where the combustion takes places. In IC engines fuel combustion takes place inside the cylinder, whereas in EC engines it takes place outside the engine cylinder. 2) The temperature and pressure in an IC engines is much higher than those of EC engines. 3) IC engines are made of materials that are better resistant to heat and pressure than in EC engines. 4) In IC engines the piston is directly connected to connecting rod, whereas in an EC engine there is a stuffing box. 5) Efficiency is higher for IC engines. 6) Boilers are required for EC engines to store water, which is to be converted to steam. But IC engines require only a much smaller tank to store fuel. 7) EC engines, unlike IC engines cannot be started or stopped quickly, because it takes time to initiate boiling of water and generate steam. 8) IC engines are lighter than EC engines. 9) IC engines are cheaper compared to EC engines.
