energy Flashcards
what are the 10 stores of energy?
chemical, thermal, kinetic, gravitational potential, elastic potential, nuclear, sound, light, electric and magnetic
what is the unit for energy?
Joules (J)
what is conservation of energy?
Energy can be transferred from one form to another but can’t be created or destroyed
energy input equation
Energy input= useful energy+ wasted energy
what is wasted energy
energy that is not in a useful format that is dissipating
work done equation
Work done = force applied x distance moved
efficiency equation
Efficiency = useful energy transferred/ total energy supplied by the device
power equation
Power = energy transferred to appliance / time taken for the energy to be transferred
what is an energy transfer of 1 joule per second equal to?
equal to a power of 1 Watt
what happens when the more powerful motor?
the faster it moves a particular load.
