Energy Forms | Light,Nuclear, Maniacal, Thermal, Chemical, Electrical,and Sound. |
Energy State | Potential Energy & Kinetic Energy |
Froce | The ability to do Work. |
Work Calculations | W=Force x Distance. |
Newton | The standard unit of force. |
Newton Meters | A unit of the meter-kilogram-second . |
Energy Transfer conversions/transformations | Law of conservation of energy (it cannot be created or destroyed). Energy changes from one state to another. |
Friction | Surface resistance to relative motion, |
Four factors | Soft surface,Lubricator,Wheels,Bump or Pits. |
Energy in a closed system | Energy is consent inside the system. |
Energy in an open system | Energy is transferred out side the system. |
Wave | A distributes from that transfer energy one place to another. |
Transverse waves | A wave in which the direction is perpendicular to the direction it came from. |
Longitudinal waves | A wave that goes back at froth at a consent rate. |
Crest | The highest point of a wave. |
Trough | The lowest point of a wave. |
Medium | The object it goes through. |
Vacuum | A space entirely devoid of matter. |
Electromagnetic waves | A wave produced by the acceleration of an electric charge. |
Mechanical waves | A wave that transfers energy through a medium. |
Vibration | The motion of the particles |
Wavelength | The distance of waves. |
Amplitude | The absolute value. |
Pitch | To set up. |
Frequency | The number of cycles |
Speed -calculations | speed = distance / time |
