What type of energy is radiant energy?
It is electromagnetic radiation, which has a wide variation of frequency or wavelength, from long radio waves up to gamma radiation, and including visible light. Heat energy is radiated in the infra-red region, because that includes the frequencies which cause heating in receiving objects.
Why is kinetic energy changed to thermal energy when you rub your hands together?
Because when you rub your hands together, it causes the molecules on your hand to move in random motion, which is thermal energy.
What type of energy do you gain as you cycle up a hill?
You gain Potential Energy as you cycle up a hill.
Can all objects contain heat?
Heat is the vibration of the atoms or molecules that make up things. As all atoms can vibrate and all objects are made of atoms, all objects contain heat energy.
What two measurements do you multiply together to find an objects gravitational potention energy?
The two measurements that make up potential energy is ......"..."...."................. POSITION &CONFIGURATION
What potential energy related to an objects height?
Shut Up. I Don't Know.
What are objects that are made up of more than one type of solid?
no
What type of energy used to climb up a staircase?
Kinetic energy which is movement energy.
What type of energy is radiant energy?
It is electromagnetic radiation, which has a wide variation of frequency or wavelength, from long radio waves up to gamma radiation, and including visible light. Heat energy is radiated in the infra-red region, because that includes the frequencies which cause heating in receiving objects.
How do you make objects particles move faster?
Increase the kinetic energy by heating the object up.
Why is kinetic energy changed to thermal energy when you rub your hands together?
Because when you rub your hands together, it causes the molecules on your hand to move in random motion, which is thermal energy.
The type of space taken up by the primary objects in an artwork?
Positive space
What is objects that are made up of more than one type of solid called?
no
What is energy from high temperatures?
High temperature speeds up movement in the molecules. This means with higher temperature, there is more energy
What type of energy do you gain as you cycle up a hill?
You gain Potential Energy as you cycle up a hill.
Which energy stored by being high up?
"Gravitational potential" or just "potential" energy.
Is it hot in the thermosphere?
It has a high temperature but it is not hot. Temperature (kinetic energy) and hot (thermal energy - a way of transferring energy between objects) are not the same thing. Temperature is the average velocity of particles, which in the thermosphere is quite high, but they are far less dense than in the troposphere, which means that they collide much less often and those fewer collision mean less energy transfer (less heat).
