Describe the energy transformations that happen hen you strike a match?
When you strike a match, first the energy is chemical because of the chemcial on the tip of the match. Then, it is mechanical because your hand moves. Then it is thermal because the match lights on fire.
What are the transformations of energy that take place when you strike a match and then light a candle?
When you strike a match, the mechanical energy from your hand is transformed into thermal energy from the friction, causing the match to ignite. Once the match ignites, the chemical potential energy stored in the match head is converted into thermal energy and light energy that starts the candle wick burning.
How many forms of energy in a lit match?
A lit match contains chemical energy stored in the match head, as well as thermal energy released as heat and light when the match is burning. So there are at least two forms of energy in a lit match.
What is the source of activation energy that ignites a strike-anywhere match?
The source of activation energy that ignites a strike-anywhere match is friction between the match head and the matchbox, which creates enough heat to ignite the match head. When you strike the match against the rough surface on the matchbox, the friction generates heat that is sufficient to initiate the chemical reaction in the match head, leading to ignition.
What energy transformation occurs when a match is being lit?
Well, honey, when you strike that match, you're converting the potential energy stored in the match head into thermal energy through friction. As the match ignites, the chemical potential energy in the match head is transformed into heat and light energy. So, basically, you're turning a boring old match into a fiery little showstopper.

Are there two energies to strike a match?
Yes - mechanical energy to scrape the match along the side of the box, and then chemical energy to feed the flame.

Which energy transformation takes place in a match head when light the match?
The mechanical energy used to strike a match is transformed first to thermal energy. The thermal energy causes the particles in the match to release stored chemical energy, which is transformed to thermal energy and the electromagnetic energy you see as light.
When you strike a match what do you provide that enables the flame to appear?
D) activation energy
On what do you strike a match?
You strike a match on the rough strip on the side of the matchbox.
What energy transformation occurs when a match is being lit?
Well, honey, when you strike that match, you're converting the potential energy stored in the match head into thermal energy through friction. As the match ignites, the chemical potential energy in the match head is transformed into heat and light energy. So, basically, you're turning a boring old match into a fiery little showstopper.
Why is a match a example of chemical energy?
A match contains stored chemical energy in the form of the chemicals within the match head. When the match is struck, the chemicals undergo a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat and light, demonstrating the conversion of chemical energy into other forms of energy.
When was Strike the Match created?
Strike the Match was created on 2008-06-06.
What kind of energy is used in burning a match?
When you light a match, chemical energy is transformed to thermal energy, primarily by oxidation. When you actually strike it, the triggering energy is mechanical energy that creates heat through friction to begin the oxidation process (combustion).
