In terms of hot-to-cold or cold-to-hot, which way is energy transferred?
higher temperature to lower temperature.
This is an example of radiant energy being changed to chemical energy
photosynthesis
Energy carried by electricity.
electrical energy
Electricity is produced in hydroelectric plant when moving water turns a turbine. Describe the energy transformation from the turning turbine to electricity.
Kinetic to electrical energy
Temperature is defined as
The average kinetic energy of the molecules in an object
Energy formed when an atom splits apart or when two atoms join to form one.
nuclear energy
Energy an object has due to its motion, position or condition
mechanical energy?
What is the law of conservation of energy
Energy is neither created nor destroyed.
The heat from an electric space heater is transferred to you by what form of energy transfer?
Radiation
Energy stored in the way atoms are connected to each other.
chemical energy
Energy formed when an atom splits apart or when two atoms join to form one.
nuclear energy
The breaking of ????? bonds in food releases energy for your body to use.
chemical
