less energy is transferred from one organism to another organism because some of the energy is lost in digesting the food material and to the environment as heat i.e. in keeping the body warm.
Then you'll have less of one type of energy, and more of another.
Sure. Most forms of energy that we use, we have to pay for one way or another. Use less, pay less.
when heat is applied to gases or liquids, the atoms and molecules in them get excited. Then the excited atom get free from covalent bond and become free. Then this atom acquire high energy and get high velocity. This accelerated atom may bombarded with another atoms and transfer the same energy to them without losing its energy. This process continues, and hence the heat is transfered.
They transfer energy because as they gain heat which gives the particles more energy to move freely, the particles will inevitably collision into each other, so as this collision occurs the thermal energy is transfered to the newly hit particle, this would explain why heat is transfered quicker in solids, because the area between each particle is less than liquids and gases because it's particles are closely packed.
Energy cannot be saved.!!!! However, physical or chemical sources can release more or less energy as appropriate. This release is then transferred ( the energy) to another form/source.
Less kilo calories being transfered as the trophic level rises
They require less energy as they do not do much work compared to teenagers. They should have less energy intake and less energy expenditure.
yes, there is less energy at the top of an energy pyramid
It decreases, it is less dense.A2.Any body can only pass thermal energy on to another body if the first is at a higher temperature than the second. Therefore when a body cools it has less potential to pass energy to another one. In addition, when water freezes it releases latent heat to the atmosphere (which of course must be colder than the freezing water), so that is another reduction in it's potential thermal energy.
Matter is needed to transfer thermal energy by conduction and convection. Conduction happens through a substance when there is a difference in thermal energies between regions. Convection is the movement within a fluid caused by hotter material to rise and colder material to sink and transfer heat.
water has the more energy. ice has less energy.
It's a device that can convert energy of one form into another efficiently. Like a lightbulb for example, an energy efficient one would use less electricity but still produce as much light as one that is less efficient. It's a measure of what you get out versus what you put in.
