What are the energy stores
Gravitational potential energy
Kinetic energy
Chemical energy
Thermal/internal energy
Elastic potential energy
Nuclear energy
Magnetic energy
Electrostatic energy
What is kinetic energy
Movement of an object
What is elastic potential energy
When an object is being stretched, compressed or squashed
What us thermal energy
A sum of kinetic and potential energy
What is chemical energy
Chemical bonds and atoms
What is gravitational potential energy
Object that is raised above earth surface
What is temperature in interal/thermal energy measure
Kinetic store on particle
When body temperature increases
Kinetic energy increases
Thermal energy increases
What is the kinetic energy calculation
Energy= 1/2 mass x velocity2
What to remember in kenetic energy
Mass - kg
Velocity- m/s
Energy- j (joules)
What is the gravitational potential calculation
Change in potential = mass x gravitational field strength x height
What is the number on acceleration (graitvational potential)
9.8 netwons/kg
What are the measurements in GPE calculation
Gravitational field strength - n/kg
Height - m
Mass - kg
Energy- j (joules)
What is the calculation of elastic potential
Elastic potential = 1/2 spring constant x extention2
What are the measurements of the calculation in elastic potential energy
Spring constant - n/m
Extension - m
Energy - joules
