Energy is used in the process of carrying out tasks, while no energy is needed when something is at rest or in a stationary state. An inclined plane requires a helper (such as gravity or an external force) to move objects across it.

What two things do potential and kinetic energy need to gain more energy?

Well, basically, the higher an object is above the ground, the more potential energy it has. For kinetic energy, the amount of energy depends on the amount of force.


Why is energy trasnformed into other things?

Energy is transformed into other forms to meet the needs of various processes and to maintain equilibrium in the universe. The transformation of energy allows for work to be done, such as powering machinery or providing heat for cooking. This change in energy from one form to another is governed by the laws of thermodynamics.


Is it possible for heat to flow across a vacuum?

Heat needs something to "flow" through. In a vacuum it will not have a medium to travel through and so heat cannot flow across a vacuum. Radiant heat will travel through a vacuum but here it is the light energy that is passing through the vacuum, not the heat energy.


What accounts for the potential energy stored inn things like food and oil?

This is potential chemical energy. It needs something else to make the energy release. In the case of food it is enzymes in the stomach which enable us and animals to digest the food to get the energy from it. In the case of oil it requires oxygen to burn it.


Which society has the greatest energy needs?

Industrialized nations have the greatest energy needs. However, non-industrialized nations aspire to become industrialized, so in that sense everybody has comparable energy needs, it's just that not everybody has obtained the energy that they need or the means to make use of it.

Why does it take energy to transport some things across the cell but it doesn't take energy to transport other things?

there are two ways to transport things into a cell: active and passive transport. In active transport the cell has to physical engulf whatever it needs from outside the cell. In passive transport, if something inside the cell has less of the item that is outside of the cell, the things outside of the cell go into the cell until the number is balanced. This happens automatically so it doesn't involve energy.
