An object gains energy when it is either heated or pushed. If pushed

vertically, it gains gravitational potential energy. If pushed horizontally,

it gains kinetic energy.

What type of energy is gained by accelerated particles?

The particles gain kinetic energy, and if electrons are being accelerated, then you get electromagnetic radiation as well. Depending on the situation, the particle may acquire potential energy as well.


Is heat tangable?

Heat itself is not tangible, as it is a form of energy that can be felt but not physically touched. When heat is transferred to an object, the molecules within the object gain kinetic energy and move faster, which we perceive as an increase in temperature.


What is The study of the motion of objects and the related concepts of force and energy form the field is called?

The study of the motion of objects, as well as the concepts of force and energy, falls under the field of physics. Physics aims to understand how objects move and interact with each other through the principles of force and energy.

What objects produce sound energy?

Objects that produce sound energy when they vibrate, such as musical instruments like drums, guitars, and pianos, as well as speakers, bells, and tuning forks. Other sources of sound energy include electronic devices like mobile phones and alarms, as well as natural sources like thunder and animals.


Various types of eye defects?

Well, the most common would be hyperobia, which is being able to see far objects well, myopia which is being able to see near objects clearly. There is also astigmatism, which is a cornea or lens shaped weirdly. There are many more but these are the most common.

What does friction create?

Friction creates resistance to motion between two surfaces in contact, converting kinetic energy into heat energy. It can help objects grip and stay in place, as well as slow down or stop moving objects.
