What type of energy conversion occurs when you place your feet near the fireplace and they become warm?
Convection.
Wood in a fireplace or the ashes in the fireplace after the wood burns has more potential energy?
Wood in a fireplace. When woods burns it gives of heat, a form of energy. Thus the wood has more potential energy.
What heat energy do you feel from the fireplace?
Radiation energy.
What energy conversion is a fireplace?
A fireplace doesn't do much... it is just a solid, primarily made of brick and steel. However, if you actually burn a fire in a fireplace, you are doing a chemical change on the matter.__________The simple version is, if something is burning in the fireplace, chemical energy is being converted into thermal energy via combustion.Chemical energy -> Combustion -> Thermal energy
What kind of energy is a fireplace?
radiation
If A person sitting in front of a fireplace feels what type of heat energy?
Radiant energy

Use of fireplace to save energy?
Using a fireplace means you don't have to use as much heat in your house, as they fire also produces natural heat. Heating hosues takes fossil fuels and energy, so having some heat come from a fireplace means that less heat has to be taken from natural resources like oil and coal.

What do British people call a fireplace?
A fireplace. The same thing you call it. At least, that is what I have gathered from watching British television shows.
What is the energy transformation that occurs in a fireplace?
Chemical to heat
How does a fireplace heat a room?
A fireplace heats a room by radiation. That radiation is the direct transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.
What type of fireplace would accept the blower?
You can install a fireplace blower in every fireplace. Just measure it so that you buy the right size. Too large and it won't fit, too small and you won't really feel an effect. Also don't buy too large because you will use more energy that way.
