When a man fills his car with gas, he expects a conversion of chemical energy into mechanical energy. The gasoline contains stored chemical energy, which is released during combustion in the engine. This combustion process converts the chemical energy into thermal energy, which is then transformed into mechanical energy to power the car's movement.
Chemical Potential Energy to kinetic energu
Chemical potential energy
How does it happen? If there's a chemical change, it's energy conversion, if it's a physical change, it's energy transfer.
Expecting the worst to happen
Yes. some people will die, and be expecting it to happen. Others will die not expecting it at all. And others will die, expecting it to happen soon, but maybe not at that moment.
Not surprisingly in 2012. Were you expecting another date?
Mechanical energy can change into various forms such as kinetic or potential energy. This transfer can happen when an object moves or changes its position.
A pendulum undergoes potential energy to kinetic energy conversion as it swings back and forth. At the highest point, the pendulum has maximum potential energy, while at the lowest point, it has maximum kinetic energy. Energy is conserved in this oscillation process.
The energy wasted in a hairdryer is typically in the form of heat loss during the conversion of electrical energy to heat energy. This can happen due to inefficiencies in the heating element or heat dissipation through the body of the hairdryer. Regular maintenance and using energy-efficient models can help reduce this wasted energy.
I'm hoping it will be this year. I'm expecting it to be since they had it in 2008 and 2010. I thought it would be every 2 years... I've been looking forward to it. Don't take my word, but I'm expecting it to happen by the end of 2012 (hopefully).
You will have a mixture of zinc and iron filings.
Usually it could be surprise maybe something terrifying but usually something you are not expecting to happen!
