How does the transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant station?
The transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant includes:Potential energy -> kinetic energy-> electrical energy
Where does energy conversion take place on the sun?
Well when you have a solar pannel your converting the suns light energy into energy that you can use. When you have lets say an ice cream, your converting the suns heat energy to energy that makes your ice cream melt. By: Linsey M. Chancellor
What energy involves movement?
it goes from radiant energy from the sun down to earth and the plants take it in and store it as chemical energy so when you eat the plant your body turns it into mechanical energy so that you can move around. You are using mechanical energy for movement
Is thermal heat and electricity is same?
No. Solar power is not the same as thermal energy. Thermal energy is the random kinetic motion of microscopic molecule. Solar power on the other hand is derived from electromagnetic waves. For example: lets take a plant. If you put a plant in a dark room and heat the plant, the plant will still die even though it is supplied with thermal energy. However if you now add light(of specific wavelengths) the plant will thrive. So the plant can discern the difference between thermal energy and solar energy. Hope that helps
What are examples of alternative forms of energy?
It depends on what form of energy you are using at the time, for example, Australia uses at the moment, only coal and fuel resorces, so any thing other than these two would be "alternate" such as nuclear, what i think you mean, is energy that does not hurt the planet like nuclear and fossil fuels. You might mean, renewable energy, which means any type of energy that is renewable or reusable, for example, wind power. Solar energy is another type of renewable enrgy, seeing that the solar panels that we have now only take in a very small percentage of the suns radiation. More research will help this. Dams and hydro-electricity are also another type, but at a cost of flooding out sometimes very rich area for plant and animal life.
Plants take in energy by absorbing what?
sunlight!
What must a plant take in for photosynthesis?
the suns energy....are you cheating on a homework sheet mrs. diefenferfer gave you in class? because i think you are....
What is the difference between energy releasing reaction and energy absorbing action?
Beacuse when you release energy out of your body or somthing, somthing has to take in the energy so absorbing;SO, it's like a chain reaction you release somthing els takes in, like humans breath oxygen plants breath our carbon dioxide and plants give us oxygenSo, it differs because when energy-realses somthing needs to take that energy in as in absorbing
What does the sun do for plants?
The plant feeds and consumes energy from the sun through a system called Photosynthesis. Plants take in the suns energy and convert its energy and uses the energy to keep itself alive. Thats why plants grow towards the light.
Plants take in energy in the form of what during photosynthesis?
The plants take in energy by absorbing sunlight.
How does the transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant station?
The transformation of energy take place in hydropower plant includes:Potential energy -> kinetic energy-> electrical energy
How long does it take for the suns solar energy to reach earth?
About 8-1/3 minutes.
Can the suns energy can be trapped?
I'm no expert but i do not think can take ALL of it but maybe a little hope it helps.
Do chemical reactions that absorb energy occur without a source of energy?
Not really. Even endothermic (energy absorbing) processes that appear to have no energy source take that energy from their environment. This can often be measured as a temperature drop.
Name of plant that is a producer?
All plants are producers. Plants are by definition producers, they take the suns energy and store it in chemical bonds. We eat plants and get that energy and thus survive.
Chlorophyll in a plant's leaves take in energy from?
Chlorophyll takes energy from sunlight.
Will a plant with water and no sunlight survive longer than a plant with sun and no water?
Yes. Even at night, plans produce energy, though it involves absorbing oxygen and producing CO2 (as opposed to the standard photosynthesis that occurs with sunlight). Take deep sea plants for example. On the other hand, without water, the plant will dehydrate and quickly die.
