Thermal energy is a quantity that can be measured in BTU or Calories. Heat transfer is just a method of transferring that energy from one place to another, or one part of a machine to another part. Heat transfer does not create any energy in itself.

What is the primary energy source in Pakistan?
Hydro electric ,thermal and nuclear energy
What energy transformation occurs during radioactive decay?
nuclear energy to thermal and radiant energy
How can nuclear fission generate electrical power?
Nuclear fission process results in thermal energy production (this due to mass difference before and after of fission). This thermal energy is transferred to reactor coolant system. Then the thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy through turbines. The mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy through electric generators.
What are the other four forms of energy besdies kinetic potential machanical and gravitational?
The other four forms of energy are thermal, electrical, chemical, and nuclear. Thermal energy refers to the energy associated with heat, electrical energy is the energy of electric charges, chemical energy is stored in chemical bonds, and nuclear energy is released during nuclear reactions.
How is the energy produced by nuclear fission used?
- to obtain electrical energy - to obtain thermal energy - to obtain bombs
What is the differences between radiant and nuclear energy?
what is the differences between nuclear energy and radiant energy
What are differences between potiential energy kinetic energy and thermel energy?
*Thermal
What is the difference between nuclear energy and thermal energy?
Thermal energy is the kinetic energy of the particles, while nuclear energy is the bond energy within the nucleus from strong interaction and weak interaction.
What is the differences between potential energy and nuclear energy?
potential energy is stored energy. nuclear energy is radioactive
What energy transformations are in a nuclear bomb?
nuclear binding energy to thermal energy
How do you turn nuclear energy into chemical energy?
Nuclear energy is turned into thermal energy, not chemical energy
How does nuclear lose energy?
thermal energy lost
What are the differences between potential energy and kinetic energy and thermal energy?
potential energy- is derived chemically from something kinetic energy-is derived from something by the motion the object has thermal energy-is derived by heat or cold
What energy nuclear bomb change?
Nuclear binding energy to thermal energy to blast shock wave energy.
What does nuclear energy transform to?
Nuclear energy transforms to thermal energy (through nuclear fission or nuclear fusion). Thermal energy transforms into kinetic energy (eg produces steam that drives steam turbines). The kinetic energy transforms into electric energy (through electric generators).
What energy used in producing bombs?
nuclear energy (thermal energy)
What increases when an object becomes warmer chemical energy elastic potential energy nuclear energy or thermal energy?
thermal energy
