Why is wind power a renewable energy source?
Wind power is described as a renewable energy source because winds are produced by the suns thermal energy and this is never going to fail or need other sources of energy.
When a moving train stops kinetic energy is changed to which kind of energy?
Heat, from the friction in the brakes.
As heat flows into substance will the atoms of that substance move faster or slower?
Yes. Atoms move faster in hot water because by increasing the heat, you are increasing the thermal energy. The higher the heat, the faster the atoms move. Blow up a balloon into the shape of an egg and attach it to a small weight so it sinks. Place the balloon in a glass with cold water and ice. See what happens to the balloon. Then, take the balloon and place it in a warm cup of water. The balloon will expand again, and that is because the atoms are going "nuts" and jumping around! That is kinetic energy!
How do you conserve heat energy?
An electric soldering iron has an electric heater warming metal with some thermal capacity - so it takes time to bring it up to temperature, and more time to cool down, after the heater is switched off. But after some time, all electrical energy is dissipated to the air and surroundings.
When heat is added to or removed fron the substance and the temperature remains the the smae where is the thermal energy going?
It is going into melting. The object is so focused on melting it doesn't pay any attention to anything else!
What type of energy conversion is going on in the body as energy from food is turned into fat?
thermal to chemical
When does chemical energy change into nuclear energy?
This does not happen, they are quite differenwell sometime chemical change into nuclear by going to thermal energy
Why lack of sleep causes weakness?
Sleep is vital to your body. if you don't get enough, your body will eventually shut down. actually, its kind of like a balloon, an air filled balloon. sleep is the actual balloon, and the air is your energy, if your sleep, (outer cover of the balloon) is gone somehow (puncture in the balloon) your energy (air) is going to escape. get it??
What makes things hot or cold?
The thermal energy inside them. The more thermal energy you put in them (e.g. by heating them), the hotter they are going to become, and the stronger the particles that they are made of are going to wobble around. This thermal random motion of particles is called 'Brownian motion'. dunno
What measures the average thermal energy?
The kinetic energy of a system.
Why is wind power a renewable energy source?

How can you add energy to an atom?
you cant
What things work because of thermal expansion and what things work because of thermal energy?
just wondering cause we are going over these things in class and i wanted to know what things work because of this?
