Question | Answer | Question | Answer |
---|---|---|---|
potential energy | the energy of a body or a system with respect to the position of the body or the arrangement of the particles of the system. | radiant energy | energy transmitted in wave motion, especially electromagnetic wave motion. |
work | amount of enery used as a force that moves an oject over a distance | nuclear energy | energy released by reactions within atomic nuclei, as in nuclear fission or fusion. |
mechanical energy | sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy and in the system. | law of conservation of energy | the law states that energy can be transformed from one form to another but cannot be destroyed or created |
friction | surface resistance to relative motion, as of a body sliding or rolling. | ||
sound energy | The energy carried by the sound wave converts back and forth between the potential | ||
energy | the ability to cause change | thermal energy | the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of particles that make up an oject |
kinetic energy | the energy of a body or a system with respect to the motion of the body or of the particles in the system. | electric energy | energy carried by an electric current |
