What is the term used for the process in which radiant energy is converted into potential energy?
The term used for the process in which radiant energy is converted into potential energy is "photosynthesis." In this process, plants convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in the form of glucose.
How is sunlight converted into potential energy by plants?
Photosynthesis
What happens to potential energy that is not converted to kinetic energy?
If potential energy is not converted into kinetic energy (or into any other type of energy) then it remains potential. Potential energy does not expire.
Where does potential energy go when it is converted into kinetic energy?
When potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, it is transformed into the energy of motion.
Which form of energy is converted to kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy in a mass of matter that is in motion, the energy of motion. Potential energy (where mass is in a gravity field) can be converted into kinetic energy Chemical energy (of an explosion) can be converted into kinetic energy Electrical energy can be converted into kinetic energy (eg in an electric motor)
What is the energy of photosynthesis?
Sunlight is converted into chemical energy- food
What is sunlight converted to by plants?
Sunlight/energy is made into food for the plant
Plant chloroplasts convert the energy of sunlight into what?
Plant chloroplasts convert the energy of sunlight into chemical energy in the form of glucose through a process called photosynthesis. This chemical energy is used by the plant for growth, reproduction, and metabolism.
Is solar energy potential energy?
yes sunlight is a form of potential energy
Why potential energy can not be converted into kinetic energy?
Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy. For example, when an object is released from a height, its potential energy due to gravity is converted into kinetic energy as it falls. This conversion follows the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.
How sunlight is converted into potential energy by plants explain?
Plants capture sunlight through photosynthesis, where light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar) and oxygen. The glucose produced is stored as potential energy in the form of carbohydrates, which the plant can later use for growth, reproduction, and as a source of energy.
Is potential energy was converted to kinetic energy?
It CAN be converted to kinetic energy, but it won't always do so.
