energy store and transfer Flashcards
what are the 7 energy stores
kinetic, gravitational potential, elastic potential, thermal, chemical, magnetic, electrostatic
2 examples of energy transfer
dropping object
gravitational+kinetic
releasing stretched object
elastic+kinetic
4 ways of transferring energy
mechanically-makes something move
electrically-charges electric
heating-hotter objects transfer energy to cooler objects
light and sound-waves transfer energy between places
moving a object through a distance requires energy to be transferred, what is the equation
E = F x d
a machine that transfers a set amount of energy can either…
apply a larger force for shorter distance
apply a smaller force for longer distance
what is conservation of energy
when energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred between stores
since energy is never perfect energy is ________ usually by ________ its ________
wasted, heating, surroundings
equation of wasted energy
total energy input=useful energy + wasted energy
describe the energy in a saucepan
chemical, thermal, wasted thermal
