No. In heat energy, there is always a certain amount of unusable energy. What amount depends on the availability of colder objects.

What type of energy does a genorator have?

A generator doesn't really have any significant amount of energy; it is supposed to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy - but it doesn't store it.


The amount by which a machine multiplies an input force is called?

The amount by which a machine multiplies an input force is called mechanical advantage. It is calculated by dividing the output force by the input force.


What is the maximum amount of mechanical energy that can be converted to heat?

The maximum amount of mechanical energy that can be converted to heat is equal to the total mechanical energy input. In any conversion process, there will always be losses due to inefficiencies, so the actual amount of mechanical energy that is converted to useful heat will be less than the input mechanical energy.


What terms refers to the amount of energy a mechanical wave carries?

The term that refers to the amount of energy a mechanical wave carries is "wave intensity." It is related to the amplitude of the wave and is determined by the square of the amplitude.


If the output force is greater than the input force of a simple machine Is the mechanical advantage is less than one?

No, the mechanical advantage is greater than 1. If you input a force of 1 unit you get out a force of 1+ units. However keep in mind that if this were a PERFECT machine the amount of WORK INPUT is EQUAL to the the amount of WORK OUTPUT. Since perfection is not possible, and there are frictional losses this is not possible. Otherwise you could have a perpetual motion machine, which is not yet possible.

Is it possible to totally convert a given amount of mechanical energy into heat?

Strictly speaking, it's not. It's connected to the fact that the mechanical energy can be converted to IR radiation (or other kinds of EM waves), or it can be converted to the vibrations of the material's lattice and so on.


Does Solid State Drives have any mechanical parts?

no, they are entirely electronic. they use a large amount of Flash memory to store the data.


Does a motor convert electrical energy into sound energy?

Yes. But it is a negligible amount comparing to the mechanical energy it produces.

How could you convert heat energy into mechanical energy?

For example, if a heated gas expands, it can make things move.Please note that you can't convert ALL heat energy into mechanical energy or other types of useful energy; the maximum theoretical amount of heat you can convert is limited by the Carnot formula.


PC games on xbox 360?

Not possible. Nor is it possible to play an Xbox 360 game on a PC. To emulate the type of processing power of a 360 on a PC would require an intensive amount of programming and an insane amount of graphics processing power. The programming is entirely different.

How large is h2o?

H2O means water; you can have a large amount of it, or a small amount of it. It's entirely up to you.
