In a conventional automobile, these energy transformations are involved: 1  Chemical energy in the fuel converted to kinetic energy of expanding gas via combustion. 2  Kinetic energy of expanding gas converted to linear piston movement. 3  Linear piston movement converted to rotary crankshaft movement.
Rhyolite is an extrusive igneous rock with a very high silica content. It is usually pink or gray in color with grains so small that they are difficult to observe without a hand lens.Rhyolite is made up of quartz, plagioclase and sanidine, with minor amounts of hornblende and biotite.Trapped gases often produce vugs in the rock. These often contain crystals, opal or glassy material.t is usually pink or gray in color with grains so small that they are difficult to observe without a hand lens.

Rhyolite is a fine grained extrusive igneous rock similar to granite. Rhyolite forms from particularly viscous molten lava and is grey, brown or reddish in colour, darkening w â¦ ith age.hyolite is a type of igneous felsic rock. It is known for its gray  and variable texture that can be glassy, porphyritic, or aphanitic.
