An example of converting electrical energy to thermal energy is when an electric stove is turned on. The electrical energy is used to heat up the heating elements in the stove, which then radiate heat that is used for cooking food.
Yes, fire is an example of thermal energy. When fuel is burned, the chemical energy is converted into heat and light energy, resulting in the production of fire which is a form of thermal energy.
Yes, the energy of moving atoms is an example of thermal energy. Thermal energy is the internal energy present in a system due to the motion of its particles, like atoms and molecules. The faster the atoms move, the higher the thermal energy of the system.
An example of thermal energy transfer by radiation is the warmth you feel from the sun on a sunny day.
An example of thermal energy is the heat produced by a burning candle. The thermal energy is a result of the chemical reactions happening as the candle burns, releasing heat energy into its surroundings.
When you rub your hands together, friction between your hands creates thermal energy because the kinetic energy of motion is converted into heat. This heat generation is a direct result of the friction between your hands, turning mechanical energy into thermal energy.
