What is a conversion from chemical energy to mechanical energy?
A common example of conversion of chemical energy to mechanical energy is in a car engine where the combustion of fuel releases energy that is then converted into mechanical energy to move the vehicle.
What kind of energy does a generator have?
A generator typically converts mechanical energy (from, for example, fuel combustion or wind) into electrical energy. This electrical energy is then used to power various devices or systems.
Which of the following is the best example of a piece of machinery or equipment containing a mechanical energy source?
An automobile is a good example of machinery containing a mechanical energy source. The car's engine converts fuel into mechanical energy, which powers the vehicle's movement.
What must occur for the potential energy of fossiL fuel to change into other forms of energy?
For the potential energy of fossil fuels to change into other forms of energy, combustion must take place. In this process, heat energy is released, which can be transformed into other forms of energy like electrical energy in power plants or mechanical energy in engines.
What is an example of heat energy converting to mechanical energy?
An example of heat energy converting to mechanical energy is a steam engine. In a steam engine, heat energy from burning fuel is used to boil water and produce steam. The expanding steam pushes against pistons, creating mechanical energy that can be used to power machinery.
What is the defeniton of a fossil fuel power plant?
A fossil fuel power plant is a system of devices for the conversion of fossil fuel energy to mechanical work or electric energy
The gasoline in your car is an example of what energy?
Its a fossil fuel :)
What are non-example of fossil fuel?
solar energy
What is a fossil fuel turbine?
A fossil fuel turbine is a type of engine that converts the energy stored in fossil fuels—such as natural gas, oil, or coal—into mechanical energy. This process typically involves burning the fuel to produce high-pressure gas, which then drives a turbine. The mechanical energy generated can be used to produce electricity or power various industrial applications. Fossil fuel turbines are commonly used in power plants and transportation, but they contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, prompting a shift towards more sustainable energy sources.
What is a conversion from chemical energy to mechanical energy?
A common example of conversion of chemical energy to mechanical energy is in a car engine where the combustion of fuel releases energy that is then converted into mechanical energy to move the vehicle.
What are the energy transformations that take place in generating electricity from a fossil fuel?
In generating electricity from fossil fuels, the process begins with the chemical energy stored in the fossil fuel, such as coal, oil, or natural gas. When these fuels are burned, the chemical energy is converted into thermal energy (heat). This heat is then used to produce steam from water, converting thermal energy into mechanical energy as the steam drives a turbine. Finally, the mechanical energy from the turbine is transformed into electrical energy through a generator.
What is an example of coal?
A biogenic sedimentary rock, and a fossil fuel.
Is nuclear a fuel or a fossil fuel?
Nuclear energy is not a fossil fuel or any fuel at all. Radiation is used to create energy. The energy is "the Fuel" petroleum
What type of energy is more efficient than fossil fuel energy?
renewable energy, for example solar energy, hydroelectric energy and Wind Energy.
How is the chemical energy in fossil change to electric energy?
Fossil fuel is burn and release out chemical energy in the form of heat that would use to boil the water to steam and transform heat to mechanical energy to run the turbine and finally transform to electricity.
What does fossil fuels use to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy?
This appears to be rather a confused question. Fossil fuels have chemical energy, not mechanical energy. The chemical energy is usually converted to thermal energy by burning the fuel. The thermal energy is used to generate steam which is used to drive turbines and so convert it to mechanical energy. Finally, the turbines generate electrical energy..I suppose it is possible to throw lumps of coal or shoot jets of oil at a rotor and so make it spin like a turbine. That is probably the only way in which mechanical energy can be obtained directly from fossil fuels.
Chemical substance that reacts to produce energy?
Coal for example, or any other fossil fuel
