Document Summary
Work can be converted to heat or thermal energy. Energy can be converted from one form to another. Chemical energy is a special kind of kinetic energy. The energy required to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1 degree f is a calorie. Energy is a property of matter that can be converted into work, heat or radiation. 21 mil j chem energy supplied/5 mil j lost/boiler radiates 1. 5 mil j heat to atmosphere. Exponential function-the longer it goes, the more rapidly it grows. The useful output from a heat engine is 962 joules. The force against an object times the distance it moved. In a light bulb, the non-useful, waste energy output is in the form of __________ energy. In a car, the useful energy output is in the form of __________ energy. In a car, the non-useful, waste energy output is in the form of __________ energy.
