Thermal energy and electrical energy are both forms of energy that can be converted into other forms. Both types of energy are measured in joules and are used to power various devices and systems. In some cases, thermal energy can be converted into electrical energy through processes like thermoelectric conversion.

Electrical energy thermal energy?

Electrical energy is the energy associated with the flow of electric charge. Thermal energy, on the other hand, is the energy resulting from the movement of particles within a substance, leading to an increase in temperature. When electrical energy is converted to thermal energy, it can be used for heating applications or to power devices such as heaters.


What is the energy transfers in a hair dryer?

A hair dryer converts electrical energy into thermal energy and kinetic energy. The electrical energy powers the motor, which drives the fan to produce kinetic energy that blows air. At the same time, the heating element converts electrical energy into thermal energy to heat the air.

How are thermal conductors and electrical conductors related?

Thermal conductors and electrical conductors both involve the flow of energy, but they are not necessarily the same materials. Some materials, like metals, are both good thermal and electrical conductors due to their free electrons that allow them to transfer energy efficiently. However, there are also materials that are good thermal conductors but poor electrical conductors, such as ceramics.

How do you convert thermal energy into electrical energy and are electrical energy and mechanical energy the same thing?

I don't know how to convert it, but I'll answer the second question.Mechanical energy is made from say...a Bike, the energy that makes it move and pulls it forward is considered mechanical energy. Electrical energy is made from a lightbulb, or anything that is electrical. So to answer that question..No, mechanical energy is not the same as electrical energy.Answer:Electrical Energy is consumed by, it is not made from a lightbulb or anything that is electrical... Steam (thermal energy) drives a turbine which drives a generator (mechanical energy) which produces electrical energy.No they are not the same thing aside from both being forms of energy.Electrical energy can be converted into mechanical energy such as plugging in your blender or vacuum cleaner and mechanical energy can be converted to electrical energy as mentioned in the example of the generator above.
