If you fall and skid to a stop on a carpeted floor, you can get a rug burn. Much of this discomfort comes from abrasion, but there can also be a real burn where the skin was too hot. When running, your body has energy.
When you fall, the friction between the carpet and your body transforms your initial energy into energy.
Because the surfaces in contact (your knees and the carpet) are heating up, it can result in a burn.

As a pendulum bob swings back and forth several times, the maximum height it reaches becomes less and less. this is because more and more of the pendulum bob's energy is being transformed into a. heat energy b. kinetic energy c. potential energy d. kinetic energy and potential energy

Apositive charge moves in the direction of an electric field. which of the following statements are true? check all that apply. check all that apply. 1.the potential energy associated with the charge decreases. 2. the electric field does positive work on the charge. 3. the electric field does negative work on the charge. 4. the potential energy associated with the charge increases. 5. the electric field does not do any work on the charge. 6. the amount of work done on the charge cannot be determined without additional information.

When is a current produced? when the terminals of an electrochemical cell are connected by a wire if the electric circuit is opened in an electrochemical cell if the electrolyte is removed from an electrochemical cell when the electrodes are reversed in an electrochemical cell
