What happens if you combine caffeine and thenine together?
It creates energy
How does teflon reduce friction?
it creates a easy layer between two objects causing them to have no friction. friction means two objects rubbing against each other. Teflon reduces the "rubbing" so to speak to a minimum by putting a slippery coat in between and in turn creating no friction.
What does Elektron mean in Greek?
ηλεκτρον (elektron) is the greek word for amber.additional note:amber if rubbed with certain materials creates static electricity.electrum is the latin word for amber. Which in modern latin is known as electricus [adj] coined by William Gilbert from electrum, which later gave rise to the use of electric.
Adding magnesium metal to hydrochloric acid chemical?
it is a chemical reaction because when the two are added together it creates a new substance so therefor it is a chemical reaction
What happens to water when it is cold?
As the air cools, it can contain less and less water vapor as a gas. So the vapor condenses and creates visible mist called fog, clouds, drizzle, and rain depending on where the water vapor condenses and how much of it condenses. The rain and drizzle forms as the mist groups together and creates the droplets and drops.
Why does rubbing hands help in winter?
Rubbing hands together creates friction, friction creates heat, so rubbing hands together in the winter may help keep them warm.
Why do charges appear on rubbing two objects together?
because the rubbing creates static, this static is a type of electricity
Do people who drag their feet produce electricity?
Most often, they create annoyance. Rubbing dissimilar materials together (say, silk and glass) often creates a static charge. Dragging your shoes on a carpet can create such a charge. (And wear out the carpet.)
How do friction help in day to day life?
rubbing hands together while washing creates friction and helps to get rid of germs
How does rubbing make plastic charged?
It creates friction which, in turn, creates static electricity therefore giving the plastic a positive charge.
Why rubbing your hands make you feel warmer?
The friction generated by your hands creates heat.
Why human hand became warm when we rub them?
Rubbing causes friction, friction creates heat.
How does heat being produce?
Heat's produced by many objects, like heaters, lights, engined, the sun, etc. All of that comes from particles rubbing together, which creates friction, which creates heat. I'm not sure how the process starts, but when particles get hot, they [move around] more, which creates the heat. I not 100% about this, so please correct me if I'm wrong :)
Mechanical energy to thermal energy?
Rub your hands together and they feel warm, right? That's it, rubbing your hands is using mechanical energy, which is by friction then converted to thermal energy (heat).
How is it that Aborigines light fires by rubbing pieces of wood together?
Rubbing things together creates heat. Enough heat, and stuff like wood catches fire. It's a way of starting fires that's almost always available, if you have the skill and some suitable pieces of wood. You don't need any special lighting equipment like matches, lighters, or flint and steel.
You convert kinetic energy into thermal energy when you rub two sticks together because?
Kinetic energy is movement energy. So when you rub two sticks together, the rubbing is the kinetic energy. The friction that this causes releases heat. Heat is thermal energy. So due to friction you can convert kinetic energy into thermal energy by rubbing sticks together.
What creates a volcano?
earthquakes in the earths core rubbing togetherTectonic plates move and collide against each other.
