Does anyone like science?

why, after you’re done pumping up tires, the pump is warmer then when you started?

Answer #1

I dont like science but I got an A in my g.c.s.e so here it goes. when your moving the pump faster up and down it is causing friction on the pump and this energy gets turned into heat because the particles of the pump gain heat energy, when the pumps molecules are moving they create heat energy. you are putting your kinetic energy into workin this pump so your energy is been transfered into heat energy. you can never vanish energy you can change its form but not destroy it…hope it helps :)

Answer #2

It may be caused by friction, which converts kinetic energy into thermal energy, or heat.
