Science Flashcards
Kinetic energy
Energy of motion the amount of kinetic energy depends on the mass and speed
Chemical energy
Stored in bonds of molecule
Form of potential energy
Potential energy
Object or organism due to position condition or chemical composition
Electrical energy
Electricity motion of charged partials creating electrical current
Sound energy
Vibration partials form of kinetic energy
Thermal energy
Heat energy
Total kinetic energy of the Adams and molecules
Mechanical energy
The sum of all the kinetic and potential energy in an organism
Radiant energy
Almost all energy on earth first comes from the sun
Nuclear energy
Nuclear energy is stored in the nucleus of an atom and is released during nuclear reactions
Force
Push or pull
Gravity
Attracts all objects in the universe to one another and effects processes inside the cells and bodies of organisms
Pressure
Amount of Force on an area
Work
The transfer of energy to an abject using force to move an object in the direction of that force
Energy
The ability to cause changes I a system to
Equation for work
Work= force x distance
