Scientific Energy
(WIP)
| Energy | Definition | Potential or Kinetic | Potential or Kinetic | + | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical Energy | Energy made available through the flow of electric current through a conductor | Electric Energy | Kinetic | ||
| Radiant Energy | Energy carried by light and other types of electromagnetic radiations | Radiant Energy | Kinetic | ||
| Chemical Energy | Energy stores in the bonds of chemical compounds that is released during certain reactions | Chemical Energy | Potential | ||
| Elastic Energy | Energy stores in an object when it is compressed or stretched | Elastic Energy | Potential | ||
| Nuclear Energy | Energy released when atoms split (fission) or join together (fusion) | Nuclear Energy | Potential | ||
| Thermal Energy | Energy of an object due to the kinetic energy of it atoms | Thermal Energy | Kinetic | ||
| Sound Energy | Energy transferred through a medium by a longitudinal wave | Sound Energy | Kinetic | ||
| Gravitational Energy | Energy of an object due to its high position compared to a low one | Gravitational | Potential | ||
| Generally, what is light energy in a briefer category? | Radiant | ||||
| Is radiant energy a broader term? | Yes, it holds many other energies inside that category like light, microwaves, x waves and gamma waves | ||||
| What does sound need to be transferred through? | A medium | ||||
| What can electrical energy go through? | A conductor, which is essentially anything | ||||
| Mechanical Energy | The sum of energy associated with the motion & position of an object | ||||
| Potential Energy | Energy an object has due to to its position or it's stored energy | ||||
| Kinetic Energy | Energy of an object or a particle due to its motion | ||||
| Mechanical Energy branches off onto two energy fields | Potential and(+) Kinetic | ||||
| When a pendulum is at it's highest point how much potential energy does it have? And how much kinetic is there | 100% PE 0% KE | ||||
| When a pendulum is at it's mid-point left and right how much potential energy does it have? And how much kinetic is there | 50% PE 50% KE | ||||
| When a pendulum is at it's lowest point how much potential energy does it have? And how much kinetic is there | 0% PE 100% KE | ||||
| Heat | Describes a condition | ||||
| How does heat flow? | Heat flows from high-temperature to low-temperature | ||||
| Matter does not contain heat is has energy | |||||
| Heat Radiation | The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves | Doesn't require matter | |||
| How thermal energy works | Thermal energy increased as temperature increases and thermal energy decreases as temperature decreases | ||||
| Thermal is defined as... | Thermal energy is defined as the total energy of all the particles in a substance. It depends on mass & temperature | Mass & Temperature | |||
| The symbol of heat is Q | |||||
| Conduction | One particle of matter to another in an object without movement | Heating an iron bar | |||
| Heat Transfer | How heat flows, and it depends on the temperature difference | ||||
| Temperature | Is defined as the measure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms substance | ||||
| If an object cools down, it means it has lost thermal equilibrium | |||||
| If an object became hotter, it means that it has gained heat energy | |||||
| Thermal Equilibrium | When two things have the same temperature | When to things are the same temperature | |||
| Convection | The movement that transfers heat within fluids and air (gas) | Boiling water | |||
| Less atoms and molecules means that thermal energy is easier to go through it causing it to heat up faster | |||||
| Water absorbs a lot of heat energy, its temperature changes while sand needs little energy, water has more molecules to break through, than sand | |||||
| Specific heat capacity is to raise the temperature | Q=mcΔT | ||||
| T=? | Tf-Ti | ||||
| Top of the trampoline | PE 100% | ||||
| Bottom of the trampoline | KE 100% | ||||
| Formula for ME | PE + KE | ||||
| Formula for PE | mgh | ||||
| G | 9.8m/s^2 | ||||
| KE | 1/2(MV^2) | ||||
| E | Joules |
