What type of heat transfer is responsible for making you feel cold when you are swimming in a pool that is cold throughout?

Conduction. Heat travels from high to low to balance itself, in a cold pool our warm bodies will lose heat to balance the waters temperature.


What are useful and non-useful energy transfers for wind?

Example: TV. Electricity- Heat, light, sound. Useful energy transfers would be electricity- light, sound because that's what your TV actually needs, but electricity- heat would be wasted energy or a non-useful energy transfer because your TV does not need to produce heat, unless of course you can't afford central heating, but then isn't heating more important than a TV???? Summary: Useful energy transfer: The purpose of the object is fufilled by this transfer. Non-useful energy transfer: The purpose of the object is not fufilled by this transfer, and in effect, this transfer is a "side effect" of the useful energy transfer. These transfers waste energy.


Creation of sound waves requires energy?

Yes definitely. That too the medium has to be a material medium. Because sound is nothing but the longitudinal vibrations produced in the material medium. Hence the transfer of sound energy is nothing but the transfer of this vibrational energy through the material medium.


How does a refrigerator transfer thermal energy from a cool to a warm temperature?

Different types of refrigerators achieve this in different ways. From an energy point of view, heat has the natural tendency to flow from hotter object to colder objects; making heat energy move the other way requires an energy input.


What occurs when energy from light waves is transferred to particles in matter?

energy transfer allows things to heat each other and to allow motion because if particles did not interact with each other (energy transfer) each atom would be able to pass through other atoms
