How can you change thermal energy into kinetic energy?
heat engine: steam, internal combustion, turbines, etc
What is an example of heat energy to mechanical energy?
toaster
How does the amount of work done on an automobile by its engine relate to the energy content of the gasoline?
Energy conversion is the changing of one form of energy into another or into work, such as that in the combustion process.
What does thermal energy convert to?
Thermal energy is just heat. To convert it to mechanical energy you need some sort of heat engine, like an internal combustion engine or a gas turbine.
How many gallons of air to burn a gallon of gas in an internal combustion engine?
14.7
What type of energy is converted to energ of motion in an internal combustion engine?
In an internal combustion engine, the provided energy is chemical energy. By means of combustion it is transformed into heat energy. This heat energy is transformed in to motion/kinetic energy in an internal combustion engine.
Identify the source of thermal energy in an internal combustion engine?
In an internal combustion engine fuel is burned in a combustion chamber or cylinder inside the engine
In an internal combustion engine what is used as a source of thermal energy?
combustion
What internal combustion engine converts into mechanical energy?
Thermal Energy
An internal combustion engine converts what into mechanical energy?
Thermal Energy
Internal combustion engine uses what kind of energy?
An internal combustion engine converts chemical energy into Thermal Energy, and converts thermal energy into mechanical energy via the pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft .
Function of internal-combustion engine?
to produce mechanical energy
Internal combustion engine of a gasoline engine?
a gasoline engine is an Internal combustion engine
What is the internal combustion engine needed for?
The internal combustion engine is used in almost everything that needs power or motive traction. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, ships, aircraft, and many other things use internal combustion engines. The internal combustion engine is needed to convert fuel chemical energy to rotational mechanical energy, which can now be used for many different applications.
What source of thermal energy does an internal combustion engine use?
burning fuel
Does a truck use an external or internal combustion engine.?
Internal combustion engine.
What is the difference between an external combustion engine and internal combustion engine?
An external combustion engine is where something is burning outside of the actual engine and the energy is transmitted to the engine via something. (e.g. boiler creates steam that goes to the engine a.k.a. steam engine) In an internal combustion engine, the burning happens in the actual cylinders of the engine. (e.g. car engine)
