Kinetic energy has been removed, and now it has been converted to heat.

动能被转移，正在转化成热能。

It turns kinetic energy into heat, and that is perfectly fine in the work-energy theorem.

可以把动能转为热量，这点在功能定理，中是非常好的。

And in the case of the completely inelastic collisions that we have seen last time, we lost kinetic energy, which was converted to heat.

在这个例子中，它是完全非弹性碰撞，我们上节课也看到了，我们失去了动能，它可能转化为热量。

After all, it seems pretty logical that they should be enhanced by global warming, as the thermal source that they convert to destructive kinetic energy is the heat of the ocean, which should go up with the surface temperature.

While that argument makes the alarmist blogs and MSNBC, it neglects that, everything else being equal, if hurricanes are becoming rainier, they must be getting stronger, as the fuel that drives the kinetic whirl of the tropical cyclone is the heat released by the condensation of water.

The technology in question is KERS (kinetic energy recovery system) for capturing and storing the car's braking energy instead of wasting it as heat.
