Answer:
Heat energy does not cool. Objects cool. Energy is not an object. Now, what happens when an object cools is that it gives off some of its thermal energy by one or more mechanisms: radiation, conduction, or convection. In radiation the energy escaped the object as electromagnetic waves - you see the red hot poker slowly dim as it cools, in conduction the energy is transferred Mechanically by the atoms of the hot object being in physical contact with those of the cool object and in convection the hot material moves to a cooler region where it gives up its heat energy by either radiation or conduction.
Potential energy = (weight) x (height)
After the car has been raised 2.5 meters, it has
(11,000) x (2.5) = 27,500 Joules
MORE potential energy than it had before it was lifted.
That's the energy that has to come from the work you do to lift it.
Since no mechanical process is ever 100% efficient, the work required
to accomplish this task is <em>at least 27,500 joules</em>.
<h2>Answer: It becomes an Ion
</h2>
When an atom has gained or lost electrons (negative charge), it becomes an ion.
In this sense:
<h2>I
ons are atoms that have <u>
gained or lost</u>
electrons in their electronic cortex.
</h2><h2>
</h2>
If a neutral atom <u>loses electrons</u>, it remains with an excess of positive charge and transforms into a positive ion or <u>cation</u>, whereas if a neutral atom <u>gains electrons</u>, it acquires an excess of negative charge and transforms into a negative ion or <u>anion</u>.
It is then how ions form bonds with other atoms differently depending on the number of electrons they have.
