Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between elastic energy and sound energy?

  • Elastic energy exists in the distortion of a material, while sound energy exists in pressure waves through a fluid. (correct)
  • Elastic energy can be stored in potential form, but sound energy cannot.
  • Elastic energy is potential energy, while sound energy is kinetic energy.
  • Elastic energy is found in a mechanical wave, while sound energy is produced by the vibrations and motions of particles.

How is heat defined in terms of kinetic energy?

  • Heat is measured as temperature, representing the average kinetic energy of particles. (correct)
  • Heat is the potential energy stored in vibrations of particles.
  • Heat is the energy transferred by systems into macroscopic surroundings.
  • Heat is interchangeable with work due to its potential to transform into motion.

Which process exemplifies the interchangeability of work and heat by converting mechanical motion into heat?

  • The rising of particles of air above cooler or denser air.
  • The propagation of waves through an elastic material.
  • The transformation of friction from rubbing sticks together into kinetic energy. (correct)
  • The convection process in hot air balloons.
