This is a model of a steam engine invented by Hero of Alexandria in about 60 AD. It represents an early example of a machine that will transform thermal energy into kinetic energy. Hero's engine illustrates transformations of energy and aspects of Newton's laws of motion. The engine operates similarly to a rocket engine. The thermal energy supplied by the bunsen burner (not supplied) is transformed into kinetic energy in the steam jets. These jets possess momentum, and by Newton's third law (`action and... more >>> |
