When you lose mass or weight where does it go to?

When a human being loses weight the lost weight is converted to heat energy and radiated.


When Bruce lets go of the weight what happens to its energy?

When an object falls down, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.


What energy transformation happens when a person lifts a chair?

You are using chemical energy produced in your muscles to lift a weight against gravity, which means the weight gains gravitational potential energy


What happens when a person takes in more food energy than his or her body needs?

It is converted to fat stores.


Give one example to show how potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy?

If you have an object on the roof it has potential energy of weight x height above the ground. When you drop it off the roof it is converted to kinetic enemy as it hits the ground, of value 1/2 its mass x velocity squared.


How many carbs do you usually burn in a 1 hour weight lifting workout?

None. Weight lifting do not burn any carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are converted into glucose in the body which later is used as energy.


How does portions help diet and fitness?

Portion control directly helps you to lose weight by tipping the scales in favor of the output of caloric energy. When you carefully monitor your portion sizes, you decrease the amount of food that you eat.


What is gravitatinal potetial energy?

That refers to potential energy related to a gravitational field. In simple terms, an object that is higher up has more energy than one that is lower. This energy can be converted into other energy types; for example, when an object falls down, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy (i.e., movement). The formula for gravitational potential energy is: GPE = wh (weight x height) or equivalently: GPE = mgh (mass x gravity x height)


How do you portion dough?

By weight or volume.


How is clock tower movement possible without electricity?

The source of energy is the hanging weight(s) in the tower....or a wound spring if a more modern mechanism is used. Think of a Grandfather Clock. It is "wound" by pulling on a chain which raises the hanging weight(s) in the body of the clock. The force of gravity pulling on the weights provides the energy to run the clock. Note however, that you actually input the energy initially, when you pulled on the chain to raise the weight. That rise increased the weight's Potential Energy, which is then slowly converted back to Kinetic Energy as the weight slowly is lowered by the Clockwork mechanism.


What type of energy does a cup sitting on a table have?

The energy change that takes place as a cup falls off a table is the cup's potential energy decreases while the cup's kinetic energy increases.


Can weight be converted into energy?

Yes. This is part of Einstein's theory: E = mc 2 "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." The amount of energy contained in 1 gram of matter is equal to the number you get when you square the speed of light. This concept lead to the idea that an atomic bomb is possible.
