the energy stored in an unlit candle is chemical potential energy, and it is stored in the bonds between the atoms in the hydrocarbons (wax) that make up the candle.
False. A stick of unlit dynamite contains potential energy, not kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is the stored energy an object possesses due to its position or state.
A candle converts chemical energy stored in the wax into heat and light energy through combustion. The chemical reactions release heat and light as energy, with a small amount lost as sound and heat to the surroundings.
No, a candle is not a living organism. It is a product made from wax and a wick used for illumination. Living organisms exhibit characteristics such as growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli, which candles do not possess.
No, an unlit wax candle would not melt on a 40 degrees Celsius day unless it is directly exposed to a heat source like sunlight or a flame. Wax candles need a higher temperature (over 60 degrees Celsius) to start melting.
A stretched rubber band has elastic potential energy. Water stored behind a dam has gravitational potential energy. A compressed spring in a toy car has elastic potential energy. A book placed on a shelf has gravitational potential energy.
Potential energy is in an unlit candle, which is converted to heat energy, once the candle is lit.
An unlit match contains chemical potential energy stored in the matchstick, specifically in the match head which contains chemicals that can undergo a chemical reaction (combustion) when ignited.
What are the physical properties of unlit candle
Yes, an unlit firecracker has potential energy due to the chemical energy stored in it. When ignited, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy in the form of heat, light, and sound.
An unlit firecracker does not have kinetic energy, which is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. However, the firecracker may have potential chemical energy stored in it that can be converted to kinetic energy when ignited.
A candle utilizes chemical energy stored within the wax. When the candle is burned, this chemical energy is converted into light and heat energy.
Potential energy, released when the match is struck.
The chemical energy stored in the candle wax.
In an unlit candle, the qualitative observations would be its solid wax structure, the presence of a wick, and the lack of a flame or melted wax.
A burning candle represents both potential and kinetic energy. The potential energy is stored in the candle wax and is released as heat and light energy when the candle burns, which is the kinetic energy produced.
It is potential energy inside the candle and wick and then made into light and heat energy by combustion
False. A stick of unlit dynamite contains potential energy, not kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is the stored energy an object possesses due to its position or state.
