When a car burns fuel which of following best describes what happens to the energy of the system?
Chemical energy is transformed to mechanical energy and some heat energy
Which of the following best describes a mechanical wave?
The matter making up the medium does not move along with the wave
What is the total amount of kinetic energy and potential energy in a system?
Internal energy at the microscopic level and thermodynamic or mechanical energy at the macroscopic level.
How is mechanical energy made?
Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy, the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. It is the energy that is generated by an object that is performing work or a job.
What is a common energy transformation?
There are 6 kinds of transformatons: 1.Mechanical Energy 2.Thermal Energy 3.Chemical Energy 4.Electrical Energy 5.Electromagnetic Energy 6.Nuclear Energy The most common is probably Mechanical or Electrical.
What best describes the role of an electromagnet in a generator?
Its role is to change mechanical energy into electrical energy.

What single word best describes work?
Energy best describes work.
What best describes solar energy?
Energy from the sun.
What describes the energy transformation that takes place when a boy eats an apple and then lifts weights?
Chemical energy is converted to mechanical and heat energy
How do you convert mechanical energy into fluid energy?
Water pump is the best example
What best describes heat?
force of energy
What device changes electric energy into mechanical energy?
An electric motor is the best for that job.
What are examples of mechanical energy transformed into chemical energy?
There are many examples of how chemical energy can be transformed into mechanical energy. Perhaps the best known example is the combustion of gasoline in an engine to power an automobile.
What name best describes heat?
force of energy
