Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves Heat moving in the form of waves Example: Sun heating Earth’s surface
Transfer of heat between particles within a substance Heat moving between 2 items touching always hot cold Examples ◦ Pan on a hot stove ◦ Feet on hot beach
Transfer of heat by the movement of currents Hot up, cold down Examples ◦ Magma in mantle ◦ Convection currents
The potential energy stored in the nucleus of an atom Must split atom to get energy Examples ◦ Nuclear power plants ◦ Atomic bombs
The energy produced by an object’s vibrations If you hear it, it has sound energy Examples ◦ Music ◦ Cars
Kinetic or potential energy associated with the motion or position of an object Examples ◦ Bicycle ◦ Pencil sharpener ◦ Blender
Energy of light Example: Light Bulb
Energy of moving electrical charges Electricity ◦ Flow of electrons or negative charges Example: Anything that has wires or plugs in
Potential energy stored in chemical bonds Examples: ◦ Inside of batteries ◦ Tip of match
Total energy of particles in an object Heat energy Temperature Example: Fire
Rule that energy can not be created or destroyed ◦ Can be transferred
Energy that is stored Depends on height The higher an object, the more PE it has
Energy that an object has due to its motion Depends on mass and speed ◦ Faster = more KE ◦ Heavier = more KE
