A steam engine comes to mind. Heat from burning coal or oil was used to heat water in a pressure cylinder. The force from the steam being let out of the cylinder under pressure pushed a piston that in turn pushed a rod mounted off center of the drive wheel to cause it to turn.

Can you give me examples of energy conversion?

Energy eonversion or energy transfer is when you input energy and it come with different energy or more. This is very usefull for us!E.ga lamp you input electricity and output you get light and heat


Does potential energy equal kinetic energy plus heat and sound?

Normally the heat and sound are forms of energy wasted in the conversion from potential to kinetic energy. By the conservation of energy principle the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy not withstanding energy losses.


When friction occurs from kinetic energy what is produced?

When friction occurs from kinetic energy, heat is produced as a result of the resistance between the two surfaces sliding against each other. This heat is generated due to the conversion of kinetic energy into thermal energy.

Friction converts kinetic energy into what energy?

Friction converts kinetic energy into heat energy. This occurs through the resistance generated when two surfaces come into contact and move against each other, causing the conversion of kinetic energy into thermal energy.


Does tides generating electricity show the conversion of chemical energy to heat energy?

No, tides generating electricity is an example of converting kinetic energy from moving water into electrical energy using turbines. It does not involve the conversion of chemical energy to heat energy.


How is kinetic energy transformed into thermal energy?

When kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy, the movement of particles increases, causing them to collide and generate heat. This process is known as thermal energy conversion.


How is energy change from one from to another?

By energy conversion. For example heat can be changed into kinetic energy by running a turbine to move a vehicle.
