What else can I help you with?
Compare and contrast elastic and inelastic collisions?
In elastic collisions, kinetic energy and momentum are conserved, meaning the total energy and momentum before and after the collision are the same. In inelastic collisions, kinetic energy is not conserved, and some of the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy, such as thermal or sound energy. In both types of collisions, momentum is conserved.
Is potential energy conserved or not measurable?
It is not conserved. Total energy is conserved, but specific types of energy are usually not conserved. Not sure what you mean by "measurable" - potential energy is usually calculated, on the basis of other quantities. For example, in the case of gravitational potential energy, PE = mgh (mass x gravity x height), all of which can be measured.
Is the collision between the ball and the pendulum elastic or unelastic?
The collision between the ball and the pendulum is typically an inelastic collision, where kinetic energy is not conserved because some of it is transformed into other forms of energy, such as sound or thermal energy. In an elastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved, which is not the case in this scenario.
What is the principle of conservation of thermal energy?
There is no such principle. Thermal energy can convert to other forms of energy, and vice-versa. The TOTAL energy (thermal + other kinds of energy) is conserved in a close system.
In order for energy to be conserved what must happen?
For energy to be conserved, it must neither be created nor destroyed but only transferred or converted from one form to another. This principle is known as the Law of Conservation of Energy. Energy can change from potential to kinetic, thermal, or other forms, but the total amount of energy must remain constant in a closed system.
What is conserved during a reaction?
Both mass and charge

What Is the study of how energy is conserved and transferred.?
Most of that is covered in thermal dynamics. Also, most physics books actually have a section called energy conservation.

What is the principle of conservation of thermal energy?
There is no such principle. Thermal energy can convert to other forms of energy, and vice-versa. The TOTAL energy (thermal + other kinds of energy) is conserved in a close system.
Is machanical energy always conserved?
No. Total energy is always conserved, but not so mechanical energy.
How can energy change forms and is conserved?
Conservation just means the energy doesn't disappear. So for example as kinetic energy is changed to thermal energy, no energy is ceasing to exist. It's just becoming a different form.

What are the key questions about thermal energy that need to be addressed in order to better understand its role in various systems and processes?
Key questions about thermal energy that need to be addressed include: How does thermal energy transfer occur in different systems? What factors influence the efficiency of thermal energy conversion? How does thermal energy impact the behavior of materials and substances? What are the implications of thermal energy on environmental processes and sustainability? How can thermal energy be harnessed and utilized effectively in various applications?
Mechanical energy always conserved why or why not?
no it's not cuz if there is friction energy wont be conserved
Which quantity is the transfer of energy?
Energy is the quantity that is transferred from one system to another. It can exist in various forms such as kinetic, potential, thermal, and electromagnetic, and is always conserved in a closed system.
