Which type of obeject out of solid liquid or gas does heat travel the fastest?
Heat would travel the fasted through gas because the particles in gas have a lot of energy from heat which allows them to move freely.
Materials with a high specific heat can absorb a lot of energy and show little change in temperature?
Yes. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of the material, so a material with high specific heat needs a lot of heat energy for its temperature to go up.
Into what kinds of energy does a toaster convert electrical energy?
Mostly heat, and a little bit of light. A lot like an incandescent light bulb.
Random kinetic energy possessed by objects in a material at finite temperature An object that feels hot has a lot of this?
thermal energy
Unlike other forms of energy what type of energy is hard to store?
well, there are a LOT of different kinds of energy, but in terms of energy that every day people come accross, heat energy is the hardest to store. This is because just about everything (even insulators) are pretty good heat conductors, whereas electricity can stay in a capacitor or as chemical energy in a AA battery for much longer than you can keep your coffee warm.
What heat rays do you get on earth?
We receive heat rays from the Sun. In fact most of the heat comes from the visible light. Also, some heat comes from other sun rays such as infra red light. However, the atmosphere stops a lot of the Sun's rays before they reach the surface.
What type of energy is gas when a car goes on a highway?
Chemical energy (stored in the bonds of the molecules). When it burns, a lot of that energy becomes heat and a lot of that heat gets converted to internal energy as the hot combusted gas products reach high pressure with increasing temperature. The pressure pushes the pistons (kinetic energy) which translates to mechanical energy, which moves the car - which has kinetic energy as it moves.
Which type of obeject out of solid liquid or gas does heat travel the fastest?
Heat would travel the fasted through gas because the particles in gas have a lot of energy from heat which allows them to move freely.
What heat energy do you feel from boiling water?
A lot.
What type of energy does the ocean have a lot of?
Thermal energy.
Where does this energy come from once the hydrocarbons release a lot of energy when ignited?
This is the heat of combustion.
What is the type of glass that keeps heat in?
a lot
Why don't iguanas move a lot?
because Iguanas need to save energy and heat, and they do that by not moving a lot. they need the energy when they do have to move.
In terms of energy why is water used in cooling systems?
Water has a height specific heat, meaning it can absorb a lot of heat energy per kilogram.
Materials with a high specific heat can absorb a lot of energy and show little change in temperature?
Yes. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of the material, so a material with high specific heat needs a lot of heat energy for its temperature to go up.
Does microwave radiation carry a lot of energy?
It can do certainly. In a microwave oven there is enough energy to heat food quickly
What type of energy do atoms and molecules contain?
Nuclear. Hence Nuclear bombs. Which shows they contain a LOT of energy. A LOT.
