What energy transformations occur in sparklers?
Chemical energy to heat, which creates pressure and then work is done.
What is a machine that transforms heat into mechanical energy?
The heat engine burns a fuel in order to create heat. This heat is then transferred in mechanical energy which creates motion.
When you are out in the sunshine you feel warm because the energy excites the molecules of your skin and creates heat there?
Solar energy
When potential energy is and kinetic energy is added it creates what?
P.E.+K.E.= Total Energy = Constant. If you ignore heat, etc.
The burning of wood creates what kind of energy?
Energy cannot be created. (Or destroyed) Burning changes the chemical energy of the wood to heat energy and light energy.
How is heat related to thermal energy?
Heat is the transfer of thermal energy.
How is the state of matter related to the amount of energy in a substances?
Energy creates heat
What energy transformations occur in sparklers?
Chemical energy to heat, which creates pressure and then work is done.
How do you convert fuel energy into heat energy?
When you burn the gas, it explodes, and creates energy.
What creates the heat energy that allows the eggs to hatch?
The Sun

Explain how friction is involved in energy transformation?
Friction creates heat - heat travels by convection, conduction or radiation.
The burning of wood creates what kind of energy?
Energy cannot be created. (Or destroyed) Burning changes the chemical energy of the wood to heat energy and light energy.
What does energy creates?
here are some possible energy outputs depending on the degree of friction: Heat energy- always Sound energy light energy(sparks)
How is controlled nuclear fusion a source of energy for us?
it creates an explosion which obciously creates heat which allows a turbine to move through rapid water evaporation thus creating energy.
