What else can I help you with?
How is the food that you eat similar to the gasoline that runs a car?
Both work as energy... Food help us carry out life functions, and gasoline helps car engines run so the car can move...
What cause a car moves?
What causes a car to move is gasoline.
How do you know that there is energy in gasoline?
Because it take energy to move a car and cars run on gasoline.
Most of the chemical energy of the gasoline burned in a car is not used to move the car but is changed into?
Heat (from friction)
What gasoline does to a car?
It provides the original source of energy that makes the car move. Gasoline has chemical energy, that is easily converted to thermal energy and then to mechanical energy(movement), which is used to propel the car.
Which statement best describes how the use of gasoline in a car relates to the discipline of chemistry?
The materials used come from the ground. The gasoline undergoes a change as it burns. A car uses the gasoline to move. All parts of the car are composed of chemicals.
When the potential energy of gasoline is converted to the kinetic energy of a moving car what what has has occurred?
The potential energy of gasoline is converted into the kinetic energy of the car, which allows the car to move. This process involves the combustion of gasoline in the engine, which releases energy that propels the car forward by turning the wheels. Essentially, the chemical energy stored in gasoline is transformed into mechanical energy that powers the car's movement.
When filling your gas tank to the top and parking your car where it is exposed to the hot sun why does the gasoline overflow?
Gasoline overflow due to heatexpansion. the molecules move faster.
What type of energy is generated from car engines?
The purpose of a gasoline car engine is to convert gasoline into motion so that your car can move. Currently the easiest way to create motion from gasoline is to burn the gasoline inside an engine. Therefore, a car engine is an internal combustion engine -- combustion takes place internally. The engine turns the explosion that takes place into Horsepower & Torque. Torque gets the car moving and Horspower keeps it moving.
Is all the energy in gasoline used to run the car?
No, not all the energy in gasoline is used to run the car. Most of the energy is lost as heat in the engine and exhaust system, with only about 20-30% being converted into mechanical energy to move the vehicle.
How do batteries help a hybrid car use less gasoline?
They allow the car to start moving after a prolonged stop with no engine running.
What is burnt in the car engine to release energy for the car to move?
A mixture of fuel (such as petrol/unleaded gasoline, diesel, LPG or CNG, E85, etc.) and air.
