What energy transformation occurs in a grass cutter?

A grass cutter utilizes mechanical energy to cut grass. The kinetic energy from the movement of the blade is transformed into the mechanical work required to cut through the grass, resulting in a transfer of energy from the cutter to the grass.


How does the grass get energy from the sun?

Grass absorbs sunlight through a process called photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, the chlorophyll in the grass's cells captures sunlight and uses it to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar), which provides the grass with energy to grow and survive.


How does friction slow down a ball on a grassy surface?

When the ball encounters a blade of grass it causes the grass to move. The ball is effectively transferring its kinetic energy to the blade of grass. This transfer of energy occurs at each encounter with a blade of grass. Eventually the ball has transferred all of its energy to the grass and the ball stops. Since this transfer of energy is much less that 100% efficient, most of the energy from the ball is converted into heat via the resistance the grass has to bending, the grass sliding on neighboring blades of grass, the grass sliding on the ball itself, as well as complex interactions with the soil.


What does the grass and water absorb light energy?

Grass and water absorb visible light energy through a process called photosynthesis. In plants, chlorophyll in the leaves captures sunlight and converts it into chemical energy. Water molecules also absorb light energy, which can lead to the breakdown of water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen during photosynthesis or in other physical and chemical processes.


How energy stored by grass is transferred to the hawk?

Grass stores energy through photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy. When a hawk consumes a herbivore that has eaten the grass, it obtains the stored energy in the form of nutrients like proteins and carbohydrates. The hawk then metabolizes these nutrients to fuel its own energy needs.

Can a blade of grass kill you in a tornado?

It is unlikely that a blade of grass can kill you in a tornado. Tornadoes are dangerous due to their strong winds and debris, but a single blade of grass would not pose a significant threat to your safety during a tornado.
