It is hard to explain in a few words, but basically, there are irreversible processes in nature. For example, if you have two containers with hot water and cold water, there are ways to use some of the heat energy from the hot water. However, once you mix them (or the heat is transferred through conduction, or actually using it up), there is no way to "unmix" it again, without using additional energy. Similarly, there are lots of other processes which, once done, cannot be undone. On a larger scale, the Sun, or any other star, uses nuclear reactions to convert energy; this energy is radiated out into space. The nuclear fuel is eventually used up, and the radiation goes out into space, more and more diluted, and most of it can't be recovered any more.

What is the energy in a human body?
Energy is stored as chemical energy in human body. It is consumed when required.

What do cells use as energy?
They use food that your body has consumed.
Is water vapor to ice consumed or released energy?
consumed
How do you use electric power in inductive load?
The actual energy consumed in load is inductive load
Why are dual flush toilets energy saving?
Because to the extent there is less use of water you have to pump less and so less energy consumed.
What is a use of a fuel?
A fuel is any substance that can be consumed to produce energy.
Household appliances which consume less electricity in comparison to the older ones at home In terms of power consumed electricity consumed etc?
the new:they use energy to turn ONE gear that turn the rest, thus using less energy by only turning ONE the] the old:they use energy to turn the whole thing, thus using more energy
What is difference in energy density and power density?
Energy density is the amount of power that can be stored ( in for example capacitance) to be then consumed over time, whereas power density is how much energy is consumed quickly like the energy stored in a capacitance can be consumed very quickly.
Is the L-Carnitine in Nestea Fit diminished if mixed but not consumed?
No, the amount of L-Carnitine will not diminish if mixed and stored for later use. It will remain in the drink until consumed. It is then used by cells to process fats and use them for energy.
When covalent bonds are broken energy is released?
No, energy is consumed.
What energy consumed by motorcar moving in town as compared to the energy consumed by a cyclist moving the same distance is approximately?
15 times
