Electrical energy is converted to thermal energy when you warm up under an electric blanket. The electric current flowing through the blanket's heating elements generates heat, which warms up the blanket and then transfers heat to your body when you lie underneath it.

What energy is Under extraordinary conditions matter can be changed into?

Under extraordinary conditions, matter can be changed into energy through processes like nuclear fission or fusion. These processes involve changing the atomic structure of particles, releasing large amounts of energy in the form of heat and light.


How does the kinetic energy of a charge change as the charge moves under the effect of an electric field from higher potential to lower potential?

As a charge moves from a higher potential to a lower potential under the influence of an electric field, its kinetic energy increases. The potential energy of the charge decreases as it moves towards lower potential, which is then converted into kinetic energy according to the conservation of energy principle.


How energy can change?

It changes from one form into another routinely. Electrical energy changes into mechanical energy (and heat) in an electric motor. Light energy changes into electrical energy (and heat) in a solar cell. Chemical energy (in coal for example) is changed into heat energy (when the coal is burned) which can raise steam under pressure to drive a turbine, converting most of the the heat energy to mechanical energy, which then drives a generator to convert the mechanical energy to electrical energy. Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but changes from one form to another.


Where is the vehicle's electrical energy stored?

The vehicle's electrical energy is stored in a rechargeable battery system, typically located in the trunk or under the car chassis. This battery powers the electric motor that drives the vehicle.


How does water turn into electric energy?

Electric power, dissipated as energy is produced by spinning generators. The generators are in turn driven by a rotating force, produced by a number of means. Water under pressure driven through a hypodermic needle hole hits the vanes in a turbine and causes it to spin. the spinning turbine is attached to the generator that depends on that spin to generate electricity. This is how water turns into electric energy.

Do you put a mattress topper under or over an electric blanket?

You put the electric blanket on top of the mattress topper. If you put the mattress topper over the electric blanket you could start a fire. So the electric blanket goes on TOP of the mattress topper.


What are the other sources of heat energy?

If you fart under your blanket it will get really warm


Is it safe electric blanket and memory foam?

Electric balnkets can be safe depending on how you use them and how you treat them, if you use an electric blanket during sleep you may need to be aware that the electric blanket can catch a fire during long periods of use (4-9 hours).


Which is the best provide the Electric blanket?

If you are looking for the Electric blanket.Woolcloth is the provide the best Electric blanket.Electric Blankets are time tested, safe and comfortable. No more wrestling with heavy electric blankets that keeps sliding off. No more laundry worries. No more cold winter nights. Electric Blanket is held securely on the mattress, under the bed sheet.


Do you put an electric blanket over or under a foam topper pad?

One should NEVER place an electric blanket under anything!...It poses a fire risk from the friction and wires. Best to heat up the bed before you get in and then shut it off to reduce the risk. Electric blankets cause house fires with people still in the bed. It happened in Connecticut.


Can an electric blanket be under another blanket?

In some cases yes. Read the instructions you got with your electric blanket. re: Of course you can. I grew up with electric blankets, they were always under my pretty bedspread so you didn't see the electric "veins"... a word of warning though, you will get REALLY warm, probably overheated. Make sure you don't sweat, the stink will cling to the electric blanket and you can't easily wash it- you may also want to cut the heat in the room at night

You have Westpoint Electric Blanket model 900 E82691 and it is reading error code 3 what is wrong with it?

An error code 3 on a Westpoint electric blanket means that it is getting too hot or the heat flow is restricted. If you have it tucked under your whole body or tucked under your bed; un-tuck it to allow the heat to flow properly.


Can electric mattress pads be used under memory foam pad?

Yes, you can use an electric blanket with a memory foam mattress topper. You might actually enjoy the feel of the mattress more when using an electric blanket because they often times feel different depending on the tempurature.


Is it bad to sleep under a blanket?

No, it is not bad to sleep under a blanket. In fact, using a blanket can help regulate body temperature and promote better sleep.


Can a cat breathe under a blanket?

No, it is not safe for a cat to breathe under a blanket as it can restrict airflow and lead to suffocation.


Is it safe to breathe under a blanket?

Breathing under a blanket can restrict airflow and increase the risk of suffocation or carbon dioxide buildup, which can be dangerous. It is not safe to breathe under a blanket for an extended period of time.
