Is wind up for the pitch kinetic energy or potential energy?
Answer 1Kinetic. Remember, kinetic energy is the energy of movement.Answer 2If one considers winding up for the pitch as analogous to winding up the spring on a crossbow, then you are converting kinetic energy (the motion produced by your arms) to potential "elastic" energy. Releasing the catch on the bow then converts the stored potential energy to the kinetic energy of the bolt as it flies away.Of course people are not crossbows, and the interplay of forces and motions is a bit more complex.Added:Answer two's analogy is flawed as the potential energy on the cross bow winding is not potential until the mechanism is stopped and locked. Until that point the energy is kinetic to potential. A pitcher winding up does not store potential energy as a locked in place cross bow bolt does.Added 2:Hence my statement that winding up a crossbow is *converting* kinetic energy to potential, while releasing the crossbow *converts* potential to kinetic energy.But as already noted, comparing winding up for a pitch to winding up a crossbow is probably not very accurate anyway.When a pitcher winds himself up for a pitch, he positions himself in such a way as to be able to convert the maximum amount of *chemical* energy into kinetic energy. At least, that's how I see it.
What has to be strong in order to cause a chemical reaction to take place?
Chemical reactions are driven by the amount of energy used to break the bonds in the reactants ( the activation energy) and the energy released by making new bonds in the products. The stronger the forces holding together the molecules of products, the more readily the reaction takes place. The difference between the energy produced in making the bonds and breaking the bonds is called ENTHALPY. The reaction can also be driven if the products have a greater degree of disorder (ENTROPY) than the reactants.
What energy transformation takes place when you burn coal?
Radiant energy -> photosynthesis -> time, heat pressure = coalcoal gets burned- > heats water- > turns a turbine-> turns a generator -> produces electricity.
Transformation did not occur when what was destroyed?
Transformation did not occur when the old ways of thinking or being were destroyed without being replaced by new thoughts or concepts. This lack of replacement or renewal inhibits the process of transformation, as there is no platform for growth or change to take place.
Can transformation only be performed using plasmid DNA containing antibiotic resistant genes R factors?
No, transformation can occur using a variety of methods and does not require the presence of antibiotic resistant genes. While antibiotic resistance can be a useful marker in selection processes, it is not a necessary component for transformation to take place.
What energy transformation takes place in solar impulse?
What energy transformations take place in:
What energy transformation is taking place when a boy is cycling down a hill?
kinetic energy
Example of energy transformation from chemical potential energy to thermal energy?
A log burning in a fire place.
What type of energy transformation takes place in photosynthesis to occur?
light energy is changed into chemical energy.
What energy transformation takes place?
The energy transformation that takes place is the conversion of one form of energy to another, such as kinetic energy to thermal energy, electrical energy to light energy, or chemical energy to mechanical energy. This conversion is governed by the laws of thermodynamics and is essential for all processes and activities in the universe.
What energy transformation takes place when sunlight strikes a house?
When sunlight strikes a house, the energy transformation that takes place is from radiant energy (sunlight) to thermal energy (heat). The house absorbs the sunlight, which then gets converted into heat energy, warming up the interior.
Starting with the sun what energy transformation takes place when cows graze in a meadow?
Kinetic energy
What energy transformation takes place when a breeze blows dust in the air?
transforms from potential energy to kinetic energy =]
What transformation of energy is taken place in electric bulb and whyexplain?
Electrical energy is converted into light and heat energy
What energy transformation takes place in the engine of a typical train?
In the engine of a typical train, the energy transformation that takes place involves converting the chemical energy stored in fuel (such as diesel) into mechanical energy through combustion. This mechanical energy is then used to move the train by powering the wheels.
What energy transformation takes place during combustion?
Chemical energy is turned into heat (kinetic energy) and light (electromagnetic energy).
What energy transformation takes place in a lightened flash light?
Chemical energy (batteries) is transformed into photonic energy (light).
