yes thermal energy be uses to do work

exp. if we have a gas enclosed in a cyllinder with frictiion less piston,when we provide a themal energy then electrons aquire sufficient themal velocity and moving zig-zag path. so they change the volume of the gas and change the position of that piston.

so the work is done= F.d, here angle between force and distance is zero.

What is the amount of available energy that can be used to promote change do work is called?

The amount of available energy that can be used to promote change and do work is called free energy. This is the energy that is available to do useful work in a system.


Why arn't work and energy the same?

Work and energy use the same units; but the term "work" is used in the sense of "transfer of energy" (amount of energy transferred).


What is contrast of energy and work?

Joules could be used to measure what?

work and energy +++ The Joule (J) is the unit of energy, alone, not of work. The Watt (W) is the unit of power, i.e. work done in converting or transferring energy, and 1W = 1J/s.


Potential energy can be used to do work?

Yes, potential energy is the stored energy an object has due to its position or state. When the object moves or changes its position, this stored energy can be converted into kinetic energy, which can then be used to do work.


What type of energy is used by objects doing work?

kinetic energy


Can you get more energy out of fuels if you increase the percentage of energy used for work?

The percentage of energy converted into useful work is called the EFFICIENCY.
