What is the waste energy from a hairdryer?
Useful - heat energy of air flowing past the heater filament and kinetic energy of air driven by fan
What energy conversion happens when a hairdryer is used to dry your hair?
Electricity is converted partially in to heat by means of a heating element built in the dryer. Another part of electricity is converted to a circular motion of an electric motor with a fan, which forces the hot air out of the hairdryer.
What energy transformations occur in a hairdryer?
Motor action occurs when electromagnetic energy (electricity) is converted into mechanical energy (rotation) by the fan motor. The fan then turns and air moves through the device. Electromagnetic energy (that same electricity) is also converted into thermal energy in the heating element, and from there the heat is transferred into the air as it passes by.
What energy conversion happens in an fan?
fan converts electric energy into magnetic and further mechanical energy
What kind of energy does a fan represent?
An electric fan converts electrical energy into kinetic energy of the fan blades, which is then transferred to kinetic energy of moving air.

What types of energy are transformed to with a hairdryer?
Electrical energy is transformed into heat energy by the coils inside and kinetic energy by the fan inside.

How energy is transformed from 1 kind to another kind in hairdryer?
Electrical energy is transformed into heat energy. But that heat has to passed to the hair. So a fan operates in which electrical energy is changed into mechanical energy.
What is a description of how the hairdryer works?
It's just a heating element with a fan.

What energy is stored by a mini fan?
The fan itself stores no energy. If the fan has batteries these sore chemical energy.
How does a hairdryer operate?
There's a small fan motor that blows air past by a heating element, creating a jet of warm air coming from the dryer.
What kind of energy does a fan represent?
An electric fan converts electrical energy into kinetic energy of the fan blades, which is then transferred to kinetic energy of moving air.
How to know what energy is a fan?
Please don't say that a "fan is energy". This is highly inaccurate and confusing. A fan uses and convertsenergy.If the fan is plugged into an electrical socket, then it uses electrical energy. Since it produces movement (of the fan blades, and of the wind that comes out of the fan), the result is movement energy. Movement energy is usually called kinetic energy.
Why electricfan is an mechanical energy?
An electric fan is not "an mechanical energy". An electric fan converts electrical energy into mechanical energy (the movement of the fan blades, and hence, the movement of the air).
