Answer:

First, the raised hammer has more potential energy since it has the potential to go higher or lower. Second, when you hit the hammer on the table, the stored potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the hammer is falling. (It's the falling hammer that has kinetic energy)

Explanation:

Another example-When rolling a ball down a ramp the ball at its highest point has potential energy but when it rolls down the ramp it converts to kinetic energy

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

For conduction

air molecules touch the warm ground, heating them up because conduction is the transfer of energy through direct contact

For convection

Warm air rises and takes heat with it; eventually it cools and sinks.

How can driving a car affect the carbon cycle?

Hey there, thx for posting your question to Brainly, i've posted some information below and an explanation, hope it helps you<3

Carbon moves from the atmosphere to plants. In the atmosphere, carbon is attached to oxygen in a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2). Through the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is pulled from the air to produce food made from carbon for plant growth.

Carbon moves from plants to animals. Through food chains, the carbon that is in plants moves to the animals that eat them. Animals that eat other animals get the carbon from their food too.

Carbon moves from plants and animals to soils. When plants and animals die, their bodies, wood and leaves decays bringing the carbon into the ground. Some is buried and will become fossil fuels in millions and millions of years.
