Flashcards

Kinetic Energy

The energy possessed by objects in motion, directly related to their speed and mass. Think of a moving car or a thrown ball.

Thermal Energy

Energy stored within an object due to its temperature. Hotter objects have more thermal energy than colder ones.

Gravitational Potential Energy

Energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field, like a book held above the ground.

Conservation of Energy

The total energy before the occurrence of a process equals the total energy after the process.
