| law of conservation of energy | energy can't be created nor destroyed but only changes form |
| the difference between potential and kinetic energy | in kinetic the object is using the stored energy and in potential the object is storing energy |
| the relationship between temperature and kinetic energy | when you measure temperature you measure the kinetic energy in the thermometer |
| nuclear fission | the splitting of atoms to produce energy. |
| nuclear fusion | materials of low mass are fused together to form a substance of higher mass |
| what energy is stored in chemical bonds | thermal energy |
| the flow of heat from one object to another | as the particles are moving they are becoming less concenrated depending on the temperature |
| good conductors of heat | metals |
| exothermic reaction | it releases energy to the environment |
| endothermic reaction | getting energy from the environment |
| example of chemical to electrical energy | car |
| example of electrical to mechanical | battery |
| example of electrical to heat | flash light |
| electrical to radiant | light bulb |
| example of chemical to mechanical | gas from your car turns the engine |
| thermal energy(heat) | the energy of particles in matter due to continual motion |
| example of thermal energy | something powered by a battery |
| electrical energy | when charged particles called electrons flow in various areas |
| example of electrical energy | hair dryer |
| radiant energy | energy that is transferred by waves from one place to another |
| example of radiant energy | microwave |
| chemical energy | a type of energy that is stored and released when chemical reactions occur |
| chemical energy | eating food |
| nuclear energy | energy that can occur naturally or be man made |
| example of nuclear energy | sun and stars |
| difference between heat and temperature | temperature is measured in units or degrees and heat is measured in calories or joules |
