What form of energy causes cracks in roads?

Thermal energy from the sun causes roads to expand and contract, leading to stress on the road surface. This stress, combined with regular wear and tear from vehicles, can eventually cause cracks to form in roads.


What happens to a hurricane as it moves over cold water?

As a hurricane moves over cold water, it loses its main source of energy which is the warm ocean water. This causes the storm to weaken and eventually dissipate as it lacks the warm water needed to maintain its strength and intensity.


How do tornadoes disappear?

What causes tornadoes to dissipate is not fully understood, but it is believed that cold thunderstorm outflow undercuts the parent circulation (mesocyclone) that drives the tornado, cutting of the warm air that drives the thunderstorm, causing it to weaken to the point that it can no longer sustain a tornado.


Where does warm air go after moving over a cold mass?

It is lifted up over the colder air, which results in expansion (a pressure drop), and therefore cooling, and in many cases the air cools to saturation and clouds/precipitation result. Eventually these processes and the air's movement causes it to dissipate into air of similar character.


Why does a hurricane begin to dissipate after making landfall?

A hurricane begins to dissipate after making landfall because it loses its main source of energy, which is the warm ocean water that fuels its strength and intensity. Once the storm moves over land, it no longer has access to this warm water, causing it to weaken and eventually break apart.

What eventually causes a thermal dissipate?

The air pressure


Does air pressure eventually cause a thermal to dissipate?

Air pressure itself does not cause a thermal to dissipate. However, changes in air pressure can affect the movement of air molecules and impact the distribution of heat in a thermal system. This can lead to changes in temperature gradients and affect the dissipation of heat.


What do brakes do?

A vehicals brakes convert kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction and dissipate the thermal energy into the atmosphere


What kind of weathering causes repeated expanding due to the heat and contracting due to cold strains the rocks and causes them to crack?

Thermal expansion causes repeated expansion and contraction within the rock. This repeated stress breaks bonds and eventually causes the rock to crack. Thermal expansion is classified as a type of physical or mechanical weathering.


When the heat source is removed from a fluid convection occurring in the fluid will do what?

When the heat source is removed from a fluid undergoing convection, the fluid will cool down and convective currents will eventually dissipate due to the diminishing temperature difference that drives the flow. The fluid will likely return to a state of thermal equilibrium.


What is TDP?

Thermal design power (TDP), sometimes called thermal design point, represents the maximum amount of power the cooling system in a computer is required to dissipate.


Can a funnel cloud weaken?

Yes, all weather patterns will weaken and dissipate eventually.


What happens to the water when thermal energy is transferred to it?

When thermal energy is transferred to water, the water molecules absorb the energy and their kinetic energy increases. This causes the temperature of the water to rise, eventually leading to the water boiling and turning into steam.


What happen when you get too cold?

When you get to cold the thermal energy in your body starts losing heat which causes blood to eventually not have the potential to circulate and you get purple not be able to move eventually and well you die. yes you can freeze to death so be careful

When a pendulum swings if it is not contiually pushed its will stop eventually because some of its energy in changed into?

Thermal energy due to air resistance and friction. This loss of energy causes the pendulum to slow down and eventually come to a stop.
