Depends on the train type. Steam trains and diesel trains use chemical energy stored in their fuel (coal or diesel) to create mechanical energy.

Electrical trains use, well, electricity.

What type of energy makes a train move?

Trains are typically powered by electrical energy. This energy is converted into mechanical energy to move the train along the tracks. Some trains may also be powered by diesel engines, which convert chemical energy into mechanical energy.


Which type of energy does a person use to a pedal a bicycle?

A person uses mechanical energy to pedal a bicycle. As the person pushes down on the pedals, this mechanical energy is transferred into rotational motion to turn the wheels of the bicycle.


What type of energy does a hand drill start with and what type of energy does it produce?

A hand drill typically starts with mechanical energy in the form of the motion you apply to turn the crank. When you use the hand drill to bore into a material, it produces mechanical energy through the rotation and movement of the drill bit.


What type of energy does a steam train use?

A steam train uses thermal energy generated by burning coal or wood to heat water in a boiler, producing steam. The steam is then used to drive a piston or turbine, converting the thermal energy into mechanical energy that propels the train forward.

What type of energy does an eggbeater have?

An eggbeater primarily possesses mechanical energy. When you manually rotate the handle, you are applying a force to turn the beaters, converting your muscle energy into mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is then transferred to the beaters, allowing them to mix and beat the ingredients in the bowl.
