What type of energy is used to heat water?
Several types of energy can be used to heat water. Electric energy can heat water, like in a coffee maker. Chemical energy can be used as in a gas stove.
What energy is used in water cycle?
The Sun's energy, which makes the water evaporate.
What energy is used to boil water?
The energy used to boil water is typically thermal energy, which comes from a heat source such as a stove or electric burner. As the water absorbs this thermal energy, it reaches its boiling point and starts to transition into steam.
What process in the water cycle is used when solar energy changes water to a gas?
Evaporation uses solar energy and converts water to a gas. Thermal energy of sun is used.
Can solar energy be used effectively to purify water?
Yes, Solar Energy can be collected to purify water the same way other types of energy can be used.
How can water be used as electrical energy?
There is no useable electrical energy in water. But if by electrolysis the water can be split into separate hydrogen and oxygen components which are collected separately, the hydrogen can be burnt as a fuel. When the hydrogen is burnt, no more energy is produced than what went into the original electrolysis, so the water is not a source of energy, it is more of a way to store energy. Moving water can be used to generate electricity, in hydroelectric schemes and in tidal and wave generators.
When water changes from a solid to a liquid energy is?
Energy is used when water changes from a solid to a liquid.
How are water and energy production related?
Water can be used to release energy. It is done in hydropower plants.
What is use of water energy?
Water energy, or hydroelectricity, is used for powered homes and its electrical appliances.
What was the driving force of water?
Generally when water is used as a source of energy it is either the kinetic energy of the flowing water or the potential energy of the water as it changed height that was used as the energy source. In both cases it is gravity that is the ultimate driving force that makes the water move (for kinetic energy) or is the source of the potential energy - which is recovered as the water moves from higher to lower.
When water evaporates the energy that was used to evaporate the water?
When water evaporates, the energy used to evaporate it is converted into the kinetic energy of the water molecules as they transition from liquid to gas. This energy comes from the heat in the environment, causing the water molecules to gain enough energy to escape into the air as vapor.
How does running water make electricity?
Moving water can be used to produce energy because potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy. Stored water is converted into kinetic energy. As the water travels, it is converted into electrical energy thus being used for electricity.
