Energy
Define Potential Energy
Energy not in motion (stored energy)
How many way can heat transfer
3 ways
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of something
What happens when solid changes to liquid
They spread apart and get faster
Define Kinetic Energy
Energy in motion
What are the three ways heat can transfer
conduction, convection, radiation
Equation used to find specific heat
C= Q/m*⧍t
what happens when liquid changes to gas
The particles spread apart more and they move even faster
Combination of kinetic and potential energy
machinal energy
define convection
movement of heat in a circular motion. (hot air rises and cold air sinks)
What does Q in the equation stand for
change in thermal energy
What happens to particles at absolute zero
The particles stop moving
8 main types of energy
electrical, light, thermal, sound, chemical, nuclear, elastic, and electromagnetic.
define conduction
What is the change in thermal energy measured in
joules or calories
what is deposition
phase change from gas to solid
what happens to potential energy when kinetic energy goes down
Potential energy goes up
What type of heat transfer is present in space
radiation
How do you find mass
M= Q/c*⧍t
What is sublimation
The phase change from solid and gas
