when a rise in temperature causes atoms and molecules to move faster and collide with each other
what is thermal energy
the energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity.
what is nuclear energy
Energy can be transferred but not created nor destroyed.
What is the law of conservation of energy
the energy of electromagnetic waves
what is light energy
energy that is produced when an object vibrates
what is sound energy
a refridgerator
this is an example of conduction
a type of kinetic energy caused by moving electric charges. The amount of energy depends on the speed of the charges
what is electrical energy
energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion
what is kinetic energy
a pan on a stovetop burner
the mechanical potential energy stored in the configuration of a material or physical system as it is subjected to elastic deformation by work performed upon it
what is elastic energy
the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors
what is potential energy
the sun on you
radiation
energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds, like atoms and molecules
what is chemical energy
What are the three types of heat transfers?
Convection
Conduction
radiation
mass can be neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction—only rearranged
