Energy Flashcards
Principle of conservation of energy
Energy can’t be created or destroyed only changed from one form to another
How energy changes as the balls move upwards
GPE increases and KE decreases therefore KE goes to GPE
Fossil fuels are from
Dead plants and animal remains
3 conditions to make fossil fuels
Time
Pressure
Temperature
Sources of fossil fuels
Coal
Gas
Oil
Non renewable sources
Fossil fuels
Nuclear
Renewable sources
Hydroelectricity
Solar
Wind
Biofuels
Kinetic energy =
1/2mass x velocity2
Swing moving
GPE decreases transferred into KE when increases
GPE =
Mass x Gravity x Height
Efficiency =
Useful energy output
