Ciprofloxacin is a prescription antibiotic that belongs to a group of drugs called fluoroquinolones, or just quinolones for short. It is available in several different forms and strengths, and is used to treat a variety of infections. Oral or injectable forms of ciprofloxacin are approved to treat the following infections: 1  Urinary tract infections (UTIs), sometimes commonly called bladder infections and known medically as cystitis. 2  Kidney infections (known medically as pyelonephritis) 3  Prostate infections. 4  Pneumonia. 5  Bronchitis. 6  Sinus infections.
The heat from the pan causes water molecules to move faster and heat up. So, when you heat something up, you are just making its molecules move faster. (3) Electrical energy is converted into thermal energy when you use objects such as heating pads, electrical stove elements, toasters, hair dryers, or light bulbs.
There is a fundamental difference between temperature and heat. Heat is the amount of energy in a system. The SI units for heat are Joules. A Joule is a Newton times a meter. A Newton is a kilogram-meter per second squared. Heat is transferred through radiation, conduction and convection. The amount that molecules are vibrating, rotating or moving is a direct function of the heat content. Energy is transported by conduction as molecules vibrate, rotate and/or collide into each other. Heat is moved along similar to dominos knocking down their neighbors in a chain reaction. An increase of electromagnetic radiation into a system causes the molecules to vibrate, rotate and/or move faster. With convection, higher energy molecules are mixed with lower energy molecules.
