Q

Energy transferred by heating

A

Energy is transferred to the system by heating into the system’s thermal energy store which causes temperature to rise

Q

Energy transferred by Doing work

A

Work done energy transferred r the same
-Work done-when current flows(against resistance in circuit)
-by force of moving object

Q

how do moving bjects hace enegryin its kenetic energys store

A
  • energy is transfered when obkect speeds up and then away when it slows down
  • KES depends on objectsmass& speed faster& larger mass=more energy in KES

Q

What is the kinetic energy store equation

A

Ek=1/2mv^2
Kenetic energy(j)= 1/2 x mass (kg) x speed^2(m/s^2

Q

Where do Raised objects store Energy

A

-GPE stores
Lifting object in gravitational feils neds work - transfer of energy-GPE stores of raised object
- objects mass,height & strength- amount of energy in gpe stores

Q

GPE Stores equation?

A

Ep= mgh
Gpe(j) = mass(kg) x gravitational field strength(N/Kg) x height (m)

Q

What energy do falling objects transfer

A
  • GPE store energy tansfered - KES
  • when no air resistance:
    Energy lost from GPE store= energy gained from KES

Q

Equation for elastic potential energy stores (EPE stores)

A
  • if limit of proportion has not been exceeded energy in EPE store found with
    Ee=1/2Ke^2
    EPE(j)=1/2 x spring constant ( N/m) x Extension^2(m)

Q

Materials heat capacities

A
  • more energy - transfered to TES of some materials - increase temp
  • materials that need to gain alt of energy in TES - warm up -also transfer alot enegry when cool down again - can store lots of energy
