Energy Flashcards
Kinetic energy
It’s energy which needs or is in motion. Eg Moving Car
Potential energy
It’s energy which needs electric charge and other factors. Eg Rubber band
Types of energy
It’s different types of energy.
Conduction
When lights move a particles. Therefore, particles will cause collision with other particles. Eg When heat goes through material.
Insulators
It is a object that produces poor heating.
Convection
It is a movement of heat going through flows of particles. Eg Convection Currents
Radiation
It is how the heat moves that does not need particles to
move heat to one places to another. E.g Radiation waves
Radiant Heat
It is heat that moves by radiation such as the sun to the
earth.
Law of Conservation of Energy
It is a law which is energy that can not be created or destroyed.
Gravitational Energy
It is a potential Energy which is an object that is raise from the ground.
Elastic Energy
Potential energy which energy gathered by an elastic object when its extended. Eg rubber bands.
Chemical Energy
Is a potential Energy that is from chemical’s reaction
Nuclear Energy
Energy that can be release slowly or quickly by energy
which is gathered by nucleus atoms. Eg nuclear reactor (slowly) or nuclear explosion (quickly)
Electrical Energy
Electric charge that powers homes through power lines.
.
Heat energy
Kinetic energy which makes objects increase temperature and show light.
Light energy
Energy that release heat or light.
Sound Energy
Energy that is moved around the room by air and the heard by the ears..
Reflected Heat
When heat bounces of a object.
Transmitted Heat
When heat passes through something such as a window.
Absorbed Heat
When heat is taken in or gone through something.
Thermal Energy
Energy in an object because the particles move in the object.
Deciduous
In winter and autumn when plants lose their leaves.
Luminous
An object that transmit heat when it’s hot.
Incandescent
A produce light which is being heated.
