| Law of Conservation of Energy | the total amount of energy remains constant in an isolated (closed) system. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be change from one form to another.
🗑
|
||||
| Solar Energy | The energy that gets radiated by the sun. It provides us heat and light energy free of cost.
🗑
|
||||
| Kinetic Energy | The energy possessed as the body is in motion
🗑
|
||||
| Mechanical Energy | The sum of kinetic energy and potential energy of a body
🗑
|
||||
| Potential Energy | The energy possessed by an object as the object is at certain height that leads to the storage of energy due to its position
🗑
|
||||
| Heat or Thermal Energy | The energy possessed by an object due to its temperature
🗑
|
||||
| Chemical Energy: | The energy released in chemical reactions
🗑
|
||||
| Sound Energy | The energy of a vibrating object
🗑
|
||||
| Electrical Energy | The energy of moving electrons in a conductor connected with a battery
🗑
|
||||
| Nuclear Energy | The energy released when two light nuclei fuse to form a heavy nucleus or when a heavy nucleus splits into two light nuclei
🗑
|
||||
| Tidal energy | The moving molecule of water takes the air because of its quick movement of electrons. These moving water molecules keeps other water molecules moving.
🗑
|
||||
| Electromagnetic Spectrum | includes a wide range of waves, some that we can and can't see. Some of the non-visible types of waves are radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, and X-rays.
🗑
|
||||
| Wavelength | distance between one point on a wave and
the nearest point just like it.
🗑
|
||||
| Frequency | the number of wavelengths that pass a
fixed point each second; is expressed in
hertz (Hz).
🗑
|
||||
| Amplitude | a measure of the energy carried by a
wave.
🗑
|
||||
| Crest | highest point of a wave.
🗑
|
||||
| Trough | lowest point of a wave.
🗑
