What transfer of energy from land or water to air by direct contact?
The transfer of energy from land and water to air by direct contact is called conduction.
What type of energy is responsible for making you feel cold when you are swimming in cool water?
Conduction.... Why you ask because Conduction is the transfer of energy from one object to another object through direct contact.
Where do mechanical transfer energy?
they transfer energy through sound water and air.
Where do waves transfer energy?
they transfer energy through sound water and air.
What is hydraulic energy?
Hydraulic energy is an energy transfer from the water to waterwheels and mills.
Which process transfers thermal energy by contact?
This proess is called conduction. The other processes are convection and radiation. Convection is the transfer of energy through movement, such as boiling water. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through a medium or space, such as the sun heating the earth.
How does energy transfer by waves differ from energy transfer by a moving object?
In energy Transfer by waves, the energy moves through the the medium, for example the water, but isn't carrying the water with it. In energy transfer by a moving object the energy is traveling by means of an object. So, energy transfer by waves can be pictured as a person (the energy) swimming through water (the medium) and energy transfer through an object can be pictured as a person (the energy) riding a bicycle (the object) In the first case the energy itself is moving through a medium, where in the second case the energy is using its power to move by use of an object. Hope this helps you understand!
How do you transfer hydro energy?
You have alot of water
How do you perform energy transfers?
A simple way to illustrate energy transfer is to put an ice cube in a glass of water. The heat energy from the water will transfer to the ice cube until thermal equilibrium.
Why do water molecules retain heat energy?
Water molecules retain energy due to heat transfer.
What actually transfer when you dipped your finger into the water?
HEAT ENERGY is Transfred to the WATER.^ ^energy direction
Does it take less energy to heat hotter water than colder water?
Yes, as the molecules of the hot water are already in motion, they need less energy to speed up and transfer it whereas the molecules of cold water need far more energy so that they get into motion and then transfer energy.
