    Study Notes

    Energy Types

    • Kinetic Energy has several types: Sound, Heat, Electrical, Mechanical, Radiant, and Light
    • Potential Energy has several types: Chemical, Elastic, Gravitational, Nuclear, and Magnetic

    Energy Measurement and Principles

    • Energy is measured in joules
    • Energy can be transformed, meaning it changes from one form to another
    • Energy can be transferred, meaning it is passed from one object to another
    • The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed

    Energy Efficiency and Output

    • Useful energy is the desired output energy
    • Wasted energy is the unwanted or undesired output energy
    • Energy efficiency is the measure of how much input energy is converted into useful output energy
    • Example: electric toothbrush - input energy is electrical, output energy is kinetic, wasted energy is heat and sound

    Energy in Action

    • Energy makes things happen and is observed
    • Work is being done when a force moves an object, causing it to move a certain distance
