Science Chapter 9 Lesson 1 & 2 Flashcards
Energy
The ability to do work or cause change is called energy
Electrical energy
Electrical energy is the movement of electric charges. it powers things that use Electricity, such as a lamp
Light energy
Is energy we can see
Heat
Heat is the transfer of energy from a warmer object to a cold Object heat isused to cook food in the kitchen
Mechanical energy
Mechanical energy is energy that motion or position gives to an object.
Sound energy
Sound energy is energy we can hear musical Instruments produce sound energy
Stored energy
Energy that can be stored as you stand ready to jump run or snowboard your body has stored energy stored energy makes movement possible.
Potential energy
Potential energy changes into another kind of energy if you use it to do work or cause a change
Kinetic energy
Kinetic energy or the energy of motion
Wave
A wave is a disturbance that carries energy from one point to another point
How potential energy changes to kinetic energy
Potential energy changes to kinetic energy when you release a stretched spring.
Changing forms of energy
Or you can change from one form to another people change energy into forms that they could easily use your body changes energy into forms that are useful for you for body stores potential energy from food as chemical energy the chemical energy stored in your body changes to kinetic energy as you move objects for me.
Chemical energy
The stored energy in food, fuels, and batteries is chemical energy.
