energy Flashcards
It is the energy of light
Radiant energy
heat or temperature of an object, all objects have it.
Thermal energy
is a type of kinetic energy caused by moving electric charges
Electrical energy
energy due to motion and position of an object.
Mechanical energy
energy stored in the nucleus of an atom.
Nuclear energy
is stored energy (potential energy)
Chemical energy
states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed
Law of Conservation of Energy
the use of force to move an object
Work
an action that changes or maintains the motion of a body or object
Force
is the stored energy an object has because of its position or state
Potential energy
is the energy of moving matter.
Kinetic energy
is a closed loop through which electric current can flow
Electrical circuit
