What converts chemical energy to electrical energy to radiant (light) energy?

400

True or false: If a red ball is higher than a purple ball and both balls have the same mass, the red ball has more potential energy. 

What is true

500

What is gravitational, elastic and motion energy?

500
Gravitational Energy
What is energy stored in objects that are in a position to fall?
500
Explain how clothes keep you warm.
What is clothes are poor conductors- they do not allow heat energy to pass through them well. Therefore, they are insulators. They slow the transfer of heat energy away from your body. The more layers of clothing you have, the harder it will be for heat to escape. Clothes doesn't really keep the cold out; they keep the heat in.
500
True or False. Heat energy can only be transferred when two objects touch.
What is FALSE? Heat energy can be transferred when objects are near each other or even across the room from each other.
