Energy
what is thermal energy?
the energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature.
what is kinetic energy
energy in motion
what is the energy transformation of burning candle?
chemical-> thermal
what is conduction
the movement of something such as heat or electricity through a medium or passage.
Stored Energy
What is potential Energy??
what is the difference between potential and kinetic ?
potential energy is energy waiting to go into motion. kinetic energy in energy in motion.
what is an example of kinetic energy?
a car rolling down a hill
what is the energy transformation in the human body?
chemical -> Heat
what is convection?
boiling water
What is an Example of the potential Energy
Roller Coaster sitting on top a hill
law of energy of conservation
What is when the objects collide?
When is kinetic energy transferred from object to object?
what is the energy transformation in flashlight
Chemical -> Electrical -> heat ->light
what is radiation
Heat
What is an example of potential energy?
a Stunt driver at the top of a ramp
what is why can energy only flow from hot to cold and not the other way around?
you can only take heat away
What is mass?
Kinetic energy decreases as ..........decreases?
what is the energy transformation in campfire?
Chemical -> heat and light
what is convection current?
Convection current is the circular pattern created when heat energy is transferred between particles.
what is the max potential energy in a pendulum??
1/0
what is how does energy flow when you have ice water and hot chocolate
hot to cold
What is how does a pendulum represent potential to kinetic energy?
when it rolls down to its lowest point it is kinetic energy.
what is the energy transformation in a windmill
Kinetic->Electrical
What kind of heat transfer is occurring when the sun warms the sand?
Radiation
what is how dose a pendulum represent potential energy?
when it goes up it has potential energy
