Y8 Phys T3-Energy Flashcards
what is the law of conservation of energy?
It states that energy can not be created or destroyed,it is just simply transferred from one to another
What is energy measured in?
Joules(J)
how many types of energy are there?
7
what is kinetic energy?
energy due to movment
what is your thermal energy
Energy due to temperature
What is gravitational energy?
Energy due to height
What is the elastic energy?
Energy due to stretched objects
What is chemical energy?
Energy due to fuels
What is magnetic energy?
Energies due to magnets
What is nuclear energy?
Energy stored by nucleus
What are the seven types of energy?
Kinetic energy,thermal energy, gravitational energy, elastic energy, chemical energy, magnetic energy and nuclear energy
What pathways can energy be transferred through?
Electrical,mechanical,radiation and heating
if energy was transferred frim the bow to the arrow what would it be
elastic energy➡️kenetic
if the temperature was higher,what would happen to the particles?
they would have more kinetic energy and move faster
