Explain the Law of Conservation of Energy.

Biology
1 answer:
sineoko [7]3 years ago
3 0

The law of conservation of energy is one of the basic laws of physics and therefore governs the microscopic motion of individual atoms in a chemical reaction. The law of conservation energy states:

In a closed system, i.e., a system that isolated from its surroundings, the total energy of the system is conserved.



In SI units, energy has units of Joules. 1 Joule = 1 kgms.



Some forms of energy:

<span>1.Kinetic energy - energy of motion.2.Potential energy - energy of ``location'' with respect to some reference point.3.Chemical energy - energy stored in chemical bonds, which can be released in reactions.4.Electrical energy - energy created by separating charges; energy stored in a battery, for example.5.<span>Thermal energy - energy given off as heat, such as friction.</span></span>

max2010maxim [7]
The term aerobic exercise describes any type of exercise typically performed at moderate levels of intensity for extended periods of time that increases the heart rate. In such exercise, oxygen is used to "burn" fats and glucose in order to produce energy in the form of ATP, the basic energy carrier for all cells. Initially, glycogen is broken down to produce glucose, but in its absence, fat metabolism is initiated instead. Aerobic exercise is an exercise performed at a moderately high level of intensity over a long period of time. For example, running a long distance at a moderate pace.

Which state of matter could possibly change density? Explain.
Lina20 [59]
It’s gases. Gas particles are always moving around. They have no fixed position and so they have high energies. Density depends on how many particles are present, so if the gas particles move around freely there will be very less density, but if you compress them their particles will increase in number thereby increasing the density
