Which type of energy is the mechanical energy of the car converted?
Most of it will be converted to heat, via friction.
True or false most forms of energy can be converted into other forms?
yes energy can be converted from one to another
Some of the sun's is converted into wind and water waves-?
Some of the sun's energy is converted into wind and water waves. Most of the sun's energy are absorbed by the primary producers.
What energy goes in a car and comes out?
It depends on what kind of car it is! Most cars burn chemical fuel, so chemical energy goes in, and the useful energy which comes out is kinetic(movement) energy. Waste energy includes heat and sound. Of course some of the energy is converted to electricity for the instruments, and some of that is used to recharge the battery so that is converted back to chemical energy in the battery, and some of it may be converted to light in the headlamps. A solar car has light going in and, eventually kinetic coming out.
What happens to most of the energy when earth surface absorbs light?
Most of the light's energy gets converted into heat.
What does not requre energy?
To sit around and not do anything, an object requires no energy. Otherwise, just about ANYTHING requires energy - and in most cases, for most changes, useful energy must be converted into unusable energy - i.e., entropy must increase.
How does ocean termal energy work?
It isn't quite clear what you mean with "work". There is a lot of thermal energy in the oceans; but most of that energy can't be used - can't be converted to useful energy. To use thermal energy - to convert it to something useful - there has to be a temperature difference between different places.
What states that when one from of energy is converted to another no energy is destroyed in the process?
That's the "Conservation of Energy"; also know as the "First Law of Thermodynamics". Please note that while TOTAL energy is conserved (doesn't change), in most or all processes that occur in practice, USEFUL energy is converted into UNUSABLE energy - often heat.
How is the energy for most ecosystems converted into the energy in food?
We concentrate on glucose breakdown, since it dominates energy production in most animal cells.
Which type of energy is the mechanical energy of the car converted?
Most of it will be converted to heat, via friction.
True or false most forms of energy can be converted into other forms?
yes energy can be converted from one to another
What is most readily converted into other forms of energy?
Heat energy.
Some of the sun's is converted into wind and water waves-?
Some of the sun's energy is converted into wind and water waves. Most of the sun's energy are absorbed by the primary producers.
What can electical energy convert into?
Electric Energy can be converted into many different forms of energy. The most common type of energy electricity is converted into is light energy - as with a light bulb. Another form of energy electricity can be converted into would be kinetic (motion) energy.
Where does electrical energy go after use?
It gets converted to other forms of energy. Quite often, most of it eventually gets converted to heat, i.e., unusable energy for the most part.

What is the extra energy converted to when energy is transformed?
In most cases it is found as heat.
