    Study Notes

    Kinetic Energy

    • Defined as the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.
    • Calculated as ( KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 ), where m is mass and v is velocity.

    Conduction

    • A method of heat transfer through direct contact between materials.
    • Occurs primarily in solids but can also happen in liquids and gases.

    Potential Energy

    • Energy associated with the position or condition of an object.
    • Commonly defined as ( PE = mgh ), where m is mass, g is gravitational acceleration, and h is height.

    Convection

    • Energy associated with the movement of heat within a liquid or gas.
    • Involves the transfer of warmer, less dense areas of fluid rising while cooler, denser areas sink.

    Insulator Characteristics

    • Materials that resist the flow of heat.
    • Often provide thermal resistance, minimizing energy loss.

    Energy and Change in Matter

    • Energy associated with the ability to cause change in matter is known as chemical or potential energy.
    • Capable of initiating reactions, leading to transformations in physical or chemical states.

    Conductor Characteristics

    • Materials that allow heat to flow easily through them.
    • Typically characterized by high thermal conductivity, enabling efficient heat transfer.

    Chemical Energy

    • Energy released during chemical changes or reactions.
    • Stored in the bonds of chemical compounds, released when those bonds are broken.
