All sorts of changes in the form of energy happen when you drive a car. The engine converts the chemical energy of the gasoline into heat energy. The pistons convert that energy into kinetic energy. Friction turns that energy back into heat, which is lost into the atmosphere. When you go up or down a hill, you also convert some kinetic energy into potential energy, or vise versa.

Will pushing on a car always change the car's mechanical energy?
no because the kinetic energy will change but the mechaincal energy will not because thye car is not on
What happens to a stars nuclear energy generation change if the core decreases in temperature?
What happens to a stars nuclear energy generation change if the core decreases in temperature?
What happens to the potential energy of a car parked at the top of the hill if you double the mass of the car?
The potential energy will double too.
What happens to the energy during a phase change?
When energy is added during a phase change the energy is used to break molecular bonds.
What happens when you decrease the velocity of a car?
as you decrease the velocity of a car, you decrease the kinetic energy.

What happens during the change in energy?
heat is produced
What happens to chemical energy when it is not used in a car?
it blows up
What happens to the energy added during the phase change?
When energy is added during a phase change the energy is used to break molecular bonds.
What happens to the thermal energy in a car?
The cooling system moves the heat (thermal energy) to the air.
