Explain the motion of the toy car?

Toy cars can be push along or self powered. If self powered that may be clockwork or battery powered electrically driven. All cars move forwards or backwards due to some force. Clockwork cars have the same wind up and release that any windup clock has. Battery powered cars use a small battery to power an electric motor to drive the wheels.


What are the energy transfer is in a toy car?

It depends on the type of toy car. In a simple wind-up version, mechanical energy, of a spring under tension, is converted to kinetic energy and noise and a small amount of heat. In battery powered cars, chemical energy from the batteries is converted to electricity which in turn is converted to kinetic energy and waste.


Can you correctly say that a new source of energy is hydrogen?

When someone creates controllable hydrogen fusion you can say that. For now when people say cars are hydrogen powered what they mean is the car uses a hydrogen fuel cell, which is really a clever sort of battery, so hydrogen is more an energy storage option than energy source.


What kid of energy is converted into kinetic energy in bumper cars?

Electrical energy.


What energy comes out of a motor?

Typically motors turn one form of energy into rotational energy. For example, gas-powered motors in cars take the energy stored in the chemical bonds of gas and burn it to release that energy. When that energy is released, it is released as kenetic energy (heat), causeing the gas to expand and move a piston up. This is broadly called "mechanical energy" however that doesn't really describe what the energy is. As the pistons move up, they rotate a shaft. As that shaft rotates, it spins the the wheels of the car to move. Most gas-powered motors utilize the movement of pistons to rotate a shaft, from the rotation of that shaft, all different types of movement can be utilized, not just rotation (like going up and down in an elevator). Electric motors also focus around rotation. When you run electricity through a wire that is wound in a circle within a magnetic field, that wire will spin (it is a little more complicated, as you need to switch the current every half rotation). That wire is fixed to a shaft to spin/rotate that shaft and voila, you have the same rotational energy as the gas-powered motor that can be used for most anything under the sun.

What are battery powered cars?

Batteries are not a form of fuel. They store energy. Hybrids and electric cars need large batteries as their primary fuel is stored in batteries. Both types of cars use gasoline to charge the batteries. Electric cars also can use the grid to charge. So, if your energy comes from coal, it would be actually a coal fueled unit.
