-- If the car is a hybrid or all-electric, then braking converts some of its kinetic energy
into some heat, which is dissipated into the air, and some electrical energy, which is
put back into the batteries.
-- If the car is the classic internal combustion type, then braking converts some of
its kinetic energy to all heat, which is dissipated into the air, and which can burn up
the brakes if it goes on for too long.
What else can I help you with?
How much energy does it take to stop a 3000 lb car traveling at 30 miles per hour?
Trick question--The answer is none. Indeed, energy in the form of heat is produced by the car stopping. But no energy is required to stop it. The brake pads, and drums or discs absorb energy and get hot.
A car traveling at 60 mph carries times the energy as the same car traveling 30 mph?
12
What has greater kinetic energy a car traveling at 35 miles per hour or a car traveling at 50 miles per hour?
Kinetic Energy is defined as the energy associated with motion. This is in contrast to potential energy which is associated with an entity's energy at rest, and it's potential for motion. Kinetic Energy can be calculated using this formula: KE = 0.5*Mass*Velocity^2, where KE = Kinetic Energy It is apparent by the formula that the same car traveling at a higher speed will have a greater kinetic energy than it does when traveling at a lower speed. Therefore, when the car travels at 50 mi/hr it has a higher kinetic energy than when it travels at 35 mi/hr. Let me just note that if we were talking about two different cars then we'd have to consider the weights of the cars.
Which has a greater kinetic energy a car traveling at 30 km h or a car half that mass traveling at 60 km h?
60. K= 1/2mv^2 therefore when v is larger, there is more kinetic energy
How many kilocalories of heat are generated when the brakes are used to bring a 960 kg car to rest from a speed of 101 km per hour?
((.5 * 960) * ((101 * 1 000 * 60 * 60)^2)) * 0.000239005736 = 1.5166917 × 1016 1/2 M V^2= kinetic energy times conversion from joules to kilocalories.
What happens when you step on the breakes?
Thee Car Stopsss -_-
What is a conversion from chemical energy to mechanical energy?
A common example of conversion of chemical energy to mechanical energy is in a car engine where the combustion of fuel releases energy that is then converted into mechanical energy to move the vehicle.
What energy conversion occur when solar powered car is moving?
When a solar-powered car is moving, the energy conversion involved is solar energy being converted into electrical energy by solar panels, which is then stored in a battery. The electrical energy stored in the battery is then converted into mechanical energy by the motor to propel the car forward.
What energy conversion has 3 conversions?
Three conversions in energy transformation may include chemical energy in gasoline converting to thermal energy in a car engine, then to mechanical energy to move the car, and finally to kinetic energy as the car moves.
What is the energy conversion in car engine?
Chemical (gas) to thermal (combustion) to mechanical More Simply: Chemical Energy to Mechanical Energy
Is it a hit and run if a car throws rock and breakes my car window and leaves the scene?
No. The driver of the car that threw the rock has no way of knowing that his car caused the accident.
A car that brakes suddenly comes to a screeching halt Is the sound energy produced in this conversion a useful form of energy?
The sound energy produced from a car coming to a screeching halt is not a useful form of energy, as it represents energy lost in the conversion process. In this case, the kinetic energy of the car is being converted into both heat and sound energy, which are typically considered wasted energy.
How do you remove a stuck key in the ignition of 2002 Mitsubishi eclipse?
Try to put your car on the parking breakes.
A man filling his car with gas is expecting what kind of energy conversion to happen?
Chemical Potential Energy to kinetic energu
What happens to energy when it is used?
When energy is used, it is converted from one form to another. For example, when a car runs, the chemical energy in the gasoline is converted to kinetic energy to move the car. Some of the energy is dissipated as heat during the conversion process.
What kind of energy is created when an energy conversion is happening?
Energy conversion takes place when one form of energy is converted to another form. An example would a turbine, which converts heat energy to mechanical energy, or a generator which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy, or an electric motor which converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. In all conversion processes energy is lost (i.e. it is converted to heat at a low temperature). The useful power output of a machine is always less than the power input, by a ratio called the efficiency, usually expressed as a percentage. Typical efficiency for an electric motor is 95%, for a car engine 25%.
What is the correct energy conversion sequence of a gasoline engine?
In a gasoline engine, the correct energy conversion sequence is as follows: chemical energy in gasoline is converted to thermal energy through combustion in the engine cylinders, which then creates mechanical energy to drive the car via the pistons and crankshaft.
