This is an example of thermal energy.
Example of kinetic to heat energy. In a solid for example its the kinetic energy and potential energies of the atoms as they wiggle around. And the colder it is the less the atoms wiggle. Thus its potential energy changes to kinetic energy ie.
I then typically make several more collisions to drive home the point and sometimes allow students to try it for themselves. For instance a runner builds up kinetic energy that starts in the feet and legs and is generally converted to heat. In a dam we store water at a greater height so it gains potential energy.
Planets revolving around the sun have rotational kinetic energy. Heat Energy Changes to Kinetic Energy. Heat energy is actually made up partly of kinetic energy and partly of potential energy.
Translational kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object moving from one point to another. Examples of kinetic energy are electrical energy thermal energy radiant energy and sound energy. Kinetic Energy Examples Radiant Energy Examples.
A fast-moving stone thrown towards a glass window has the capacity of breaking a windowpane when it strikes the pane. When something is really hot its because all of the atoms inside of it the tiny bits of stuff that make it up are wiggling around a lot. In other words the kinetic energy of particles gives other particles more kinetic energy.
Vibrating phone has a vibrational kinetic energy. In a solid for example its the kinetic energy and potential energies of the atoms as they wiggle around. Boiling water is the perfect example of thermal energy as it can be seen as well as felt.
