Study Notes
Energy Basics
- A common form of energy is kinetic energy, potential energy, thermal energy, electrical energy, chemical energy, and radioactive energy.
- Energy is the quantitative property that is transferred to a body or physical system, often measured in joules (J).
Measurement of Energy
- The unit of measurement for energy in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule (J).
Law of Conservation of Energy
- Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another, according to the law of conservation of energy.
- Energy can be converted into different forms, such as kinetic energy, potential energy, thermal energy, electrical energy, chemical energy, and radioactive energy.
Types of Energy
- Radiant energy is carried by electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves.
- Nuclear energy is NOT a common form of energy.
Internal Energy
- The internal energy is the energy contained within a thermodynamic system, including the kinetic energy of molecules, potential energy of molecular interactions, and potential energy associated with the architecture of the system.
