What are some examples of how you use heat energy in our lives?
waiting for water to boil ice in water soup and veggies
During an energy transfer what happens to the total amount of energy?
Energy can not be destroyed, so the total amount of energy before a change is equal to the amount of energy after the change. However, some energy is changed into a useful form, but some may be wasted and not used. For example, a light bulb, changes electrical energy into light energy, but some of the energy is changed to heat and some to sound, these are not useful and are wasted, but are changed nonetheless. So a transformation from mechanical energy to heat will have the same total energy at the start as at the finish, but unless it is 100% efficient some of the original energy will be 'lost'
What are some examples of the forms of energy?
Kinetic- Throwing a baseballPotential- Holding a baseballGravitational Potential- A diver standing motionless of a diving boardElastic Potential- Bouncing a bouncy ball.Mechanical- A moving trainChemical- Gasoline in a carElectrical- Lightning StrikingElectromagnetic- Satellites in spaceNuclear- An exploding bombThermal- Boiling Water
Describe the energy transformation that occur when you bounce a ball?
When the ball hits the ground, kinetic energy is turned into potential energy and stored momentarily as the ball compresses. As the ball rebounds, the potential energy is converted back to kinetic energy. Some energy is also lost in the form of heat and air waves (sound). This continues with each bounce and due to the loss of energy, the ball gradually stops bouncing.
Which forms of energy are produced by a burning candle?
By heat and light because a candle gives of of heat and it is lit so in some cases we need to see in the dark
In each transformation of energy some energy?
Is lost as heat
In each transformation of energy some energy .?
Is lost as heat
How is some thermal energy realized during an energy transformation?
by the heat
What energy transformation occurs in a candle?
Some of the chemical energy stored in the wax is converted into heat and light energy.
What are some example of energy transformation?
transformation energy means: Energy transformation is the process of changing energy from one form to another.Here our some examples:1. Chemical energy TO electrical energy TO Thermal = burning a log at a campsite!2. electrical energy TO Mechanical energy TO Thermal energy = making toast withtoaster!

What energy transformation occurring in a camfire?
Assuming that you mean campfire, chemical energy is converted into heat and light, and some sound.
What are some examples of heat energy changes?
bulb
3 examples of heat energy?
There are many examples of heat energy found in the environment. Some of these include the sun, boiling water, and a stove.
What are some examples of heat technologies?
Geothermal energy is a type of heat technology
What are some examples of Energy Conversion?
some of the energy conversion are heat to mechancal, heat, chemical, nuclear and electric and same for all them.
What are some examples of a thermodynamic system?
Heat Flow and Energy.
