What substance has a large amount of thermal energy?

Molten lava from a volcano has a large amount of thermal energy due to its high temperature.


What produces the large amount of energy released by the nuclear reaction?

The large amount of energy released by a nuclear reaction comes from the conversion of mass into energy, as described by Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2. This means that a small amount of mass is converted into a large amount of energy during nuclear reactions.


Why does nuclear fission release energy?

Nuclear fission releases energy because when a heavy atomic nucleus splits into smaller nuclei, a small amount of mass is converted into a large amount of energy according to Einstein's famous equation, Emc2.


Why don't nuclear power plants need much fuel?

Nuclear power plants utilize a process called nuclear fission, where a small amount of uranium fuel generates a large amount of energy. This is because the energy released during fission is several million times greater than the energy released in chemical reactions, such as burning fossil fuels. As a result, nuclear power plants require relatively small quantities of fuel to produce large amounts of electricity.


A wave with high amplitude?

A wave with high amplitude has large peaks and troughs, indicating a significant amount of energy. This type of wave carries more energy than a wave with small amplitude, and can be more powerful and potentially more destructive. High-amplitude waves are often associated with phenomena like earthquakes, tsunamis, or large storm surges.

When did tsunamis first begin?

since there was a large amount of water on the earth


How do tsunamis impact the ecosystem?

Tsunamis bring large amount of water. It disrupts water cycle.


Can energy be released in an earthquake that can cause landslides and tsunamis?

Yes, during an earthquake, the release of energy can trigger landslides due to the shaking of the ground, which can dislodge rocks and soil. Additionally, underwater earthquakes can displace large volumes of water, generating tsunamis due to the transfer of energy to the ocean.


When does a coaster have a large amount of Kinetic Energy and when does it have a large amount of Potential Energy?

The coaster have a large amount of potential energy when it gain height, kinetic energy when it gain speed instead.


How is the connected to the water cycle?

Tsunamis bring large amount of water. It disrupts water cycle.


Why are tsunamis so destructive?

Because of how moving energy transmitted through water hits the ground and that moving water has to stop suddenly and all that energy of the moving water piles up in one spot.


How do tsunamis get so powerful?

Tsunamis get powerful due to the large amount of energy transferred from an underwater disturbance, such as an earthquake, volcanic eruption, or submarine landslide. This energy causes water to move in massive waves that can travel long distances, gaining strength as they approach shallower coastal areas. The combination of the energy released and the large volume of water displaced contributes to the destructive power of tsunamis.


Why do tusnamis ocur in the pacific ocean and not the Atlantic ocean?

Tsunamis can occur in any large body of water. The main reason they are more common in the Pacific is because of the large amount of tectonic activity. Tsunamis are usually caused by either an underwater earthquake, or a near water volcanic eruption. Due to the amount of volcanos in the Pacific Ocean region and the tectonic activity (which causes earthquakes) there are many more tsunamis in the Pacific than in the Atlantic.


What would happen if water absorbs a large amount of energy?

If water absorbs a large amount of energy it boils.


Is nuclaer energy renewable?

Not exactly, but there are enormous reserves of nuclear fuel available. This is because a small amount of uranium, for example, or of deuterium, produce a large amount of energy.


Why do fast-moving predators need a large amount of food?

Fast-moving predators need a large amount of food because they burn more energy when thy are hunting. They need more food, to supply the greater amount of energy they use.
