Potetial Energy | energy that is stored |
Kinetic Energy | the energy of motion. It depends on the mass and velocity of the object |
Elastic Potential Energy | the energy found in springs and rubber bands.a kind of matter that easily changes volume and shape. |
Mechanical Energy formula | potential energy and kinetic energy combined or added together |
Chemical Energy | energy stored in the chemical bonds between atoms and molecules |
Electromagnetic Energy | energy that travels in waves |
Electrical Energy | the energy of electrical changes |
Energy transformation | A change from one form of energy to another form of energy. |
Power | the amount of energy transferred in a unit of time |
Mechanical Energy | the energy an object has because of its position and its motion |
Work | the transfer of energy |
Law of Conservation of Energy | When energy changes form, energy is not lost or created. |
Joules | the units that energy is measured in |
Energy | the ability to do work |
Thermal Energy | the total energy in the particles of an object. |
Gravitational Potential Energy | potential energy that depends on height |
Power | the rate at which energy is transferred |
Kinetic Energy depends on | this type of energy depends on mass and velocity |
Nuclear Energy | the energy stored in the nuclei of atoms |
friction | causes moving objects to slow down |
An example of Electromagnetic Energy | sunlight that reaches earth |
An example of something that stores Chemical Energy | a match used to light a fire, the energy stored in food for our bodies |
An example of Thermal Energy | a mug of hot cocoa, a pot of hot soup on the stove |
An example of Electrical Energy | lightning in the sky during a thunderstorm |
An example of Nuclear Energy | nuclear power plants |
