Name the energy transformation that occurs when your body produces heat?
It would be chemical energy, from food you would consume, to thermal energy that your body produces.
When you climb up the stairs what is the energy transformation?
chemical energy (stored in the muscles of the body) turns to kinetic energy (climbing up the stairs) and then is transformed to potential energy (once you reach the top of the stairs) due to your position.
Is it possible that no transformation of energy may take place even when a force is applied to a body?
Yes. Forces are constantly applied to objects; for an energy transfer (work) to occur, there must be a force AND movement: work = force times distance.
What is the energy transformation when eating food?
First when a person began to digest the food it becomes a chemical energy. The chemical energy is converted into a kinetic energy. As the body gets energy the kinetic is converted into a mechanical energy.
What material poorly conducts thermal energy?
Thermal energy is the internal energy of a system in thermodynamic equilibrium by virtue of its temperature. A hot body has more thermal energy than a similar cold body, but a large tub of cold water may have more thermal energy than a cup of boiling water. Thermal energy can be transferred from one body, usually hotter, to a second body, usually colder, in three ways: conduction , convection, and radiation. Insulator

What kind of energy transformation is taking place in the caterpillar's body while the caterpillar eats the leaf in the photograph?
Chemical Energy -> Kinetic Energy
What are the various energy transformation when you eat an ice cream cone?
Well it depends on what you mean by that question. If you mean you are using body energy then yes. If you mean actual energy in electricity then no.
Describe the transformation of chemical energy to mechanical in your body?
Chemical energy lies within the food that organisms eat. Digestion turns the chemical energy into mechanical energy, which can be used to fuel the organs, tissues and cells.
What is the energy transformation taking place when a person runs?
The energy in chemical bonds (from food) is turned into:kinetic energy (moving mass), noiseheat (shoes heat up , the runner's body get warm)
Can mass be transformed into energy and vice versa and if so why does this not follow the conservation of mass and energy?
Transformation of energy does follow the conservation of mass and energy. When a body gains potential energy, it loses kinetic energy and viceversa. Therefore total energy always remains constant.
Why doesn't the body get as hot with anaerobic exercise as it does with aerobic?
because aerobics is a more physical excericise and you excert more energy performing it.
Why pearlite makes steel harder?
Because Martensite transformation is almost instantaneous, the Martensite has the identical composition of the parent phase. Formation of Martensite involves a transformation from a body-centered cubic structure to body-centered tetragonal structure. The large increase in volume that results creates a highly stressed structure.
When you climb up the stairs what is the energy transformation?
chemical energy (stored in the muscles of the body) turns to kinetic energy (climbing up the stairs) and then is transformed to potential energy (once you reach the top of the stairs) due to your position.
HOw can I get the holy grail body transformation?
You can purchase it through their website online. Holy Grail body transformation can be found here: http://theholygrailbodytransformation.com/holygrail.html.
What type of energy transformation takes place during photosynthesis?
The transformation occurs using photosynthesis is radiant, because of the light a plant needs, then the light is digested by the plant. In other words digested means that the plant stores the light in its body like humans use the sun and food to get energy.
Is it possible that no transformation of energy may take place even when a force is applied to a body?
Yes. Forces are constantly applied to objects; for an energy transfer (work) to occur, there must be a force AND movement: work = force times distance.
