What is the previous form of energy for heat?

Before gas and electric the previous form of heat was fire wood. (like a camp fire)


What is it called when water is release from a camp fire?

It is called steam, as the heat from the camp fire causes the water to evaporate and form water vapor.


Is fire a form of matter or energy?

Fire is a form of energy, not matter. It results from the rapid oxidation of a material, releasing heat and light energy.


Why does fire produce heat?

fire- a form of energy (chemical+ light+other form) is converted to heat energy as per first law of thermodynamics


Fire's heat is which type of energy?

Fire's heat is a form of thermal energy, which is the energy that comes from the movement of particles within matter.


Is fire a physical form of the energy heat?

well yes and no fire is a mix of physical and the pure energy itself


Is fire a example of thermal energy?

Yes, fire is an example of thermal energy. When fuel is burned, the chemical energy is converted into heat and light energy, resulting in the production of fire which is a form of thermal energy.


What form of energy is fire?

Fire is a form of thermal energy, or heat energy, generated by the combustion process of burning materials. It emits light and heat energy as a result of the rapid oxidation reaction between a fuel and oxygen.


When was Camp Fire USA created?

Is fire energy or matter?

Fire is a form of energy, not matter. It results from the rapid chemical reaction of a fuel with oxygen, releasing heat and light energy.


How is fire a chemical energy?

Fire is a chemical reaction that involves the rapid oxidation of a material (such as wood or gas) with oxygen in the air. This process releases energy in the form of heat and light, making fire a form of chemical energy transformation.


How does a campfire warm you up?

The combustion reaction of burning organic material is exergonic, meaning it releases energy. In this case it is in the form of heat energy. The energy is stored in the wood by the process of photosynthesis. This heat energy causes the air around the campfire to gain energy in its system. You, in turn, feel less cold because the difference between your body temperature and the air around you is decreased due to the heat from the fire. Thus, you are losing less heat to the outside environment.---Heat transfer may take three forms: radiation, conduction, and convection. Conduction requires contact, so you can rule that one out unless you sit on the camp fire. Convection is the movement of heated air, but unless the camp fire is inside your house, most of the heated air disappears quickly into the sky. The main form of heat transfer occurring between the camp fire and you is radiation, I would say. So, the short answer is: "Through radiation."
