YES ...

When a car is moving, it has kinetic energy. If you apply the brakes, the vehicle will slow down and thus loose some of that kinetic energy.

The energy that was kinetic from the fast moving vehicle is transferred into heat energy in the braking mechanism (the rotor disks and pads.)

Sure, we do it every time we throw anything.


What energy does treadmill convert into?

It contains a dynamo with which treadmill converts kinetic energy to electric energy. Also, kinetic energy is the result of running of humans on the machine and gaining of energy and then converting into electric energy which at least can help in lighting outdoor lights etc.


What kind of energy do humans have?

Humans have chemical energy stored in the form of glucose and other nutrients from food. This energy is converted into kinetic energy to power the muscles and movement, as well as to maintain body functions such as breathing, digestion, and brain activity.


What is the main principle of hydro electric power stations?

The potential energy of the collected water is turned into kinetic energy as the water is released downstream. As the water is released, it hits a turbine, forcing it to spin. The spinning turbine turns some of the kinetic energy of the water into electric energy, which can be transported away in cables for us humans to use.

Is radiant energy kinetic energy or potential energy?

The Sun's energy would be considered radiant.Potential energy is energy stored in a system of forcefully interacting physical entities.The kinetic energy of an object is the energy which it possesses due to its motion.


Why do humans get tired and sleepy?

Human get tired and sleepy as chemical potential energy in our body is transferred to other forms of energy(kinetic energy when moving).Hence, the chemical potential energy gets used up and you get tired and to restore this energy u will need food:).

No, it is a device to convert the energy in the wind into useable energy for humans. Wind is the energy source.


Can humans be like sayans?

Currently, humans cannot be like saiyans because we do not react to the full moon and cannot control energy in beams or balls.


Why are combustion reactions useful to humans?

Combustion reactions are useful to humans because they provide heat energy for cooking, heating, and generating electricity. They also power vehicles and machinery by converting chemical energy into kinetic energy.


How can you overcome the use of energy in our environment?

That sounds as if you want to stop using energy. That's not possible - we need energy to survive. We (humans) can reduce our use of energy, and we can try to reduce the environmental impact of the energy we do use.
