Study Notes
Six Types of Energy
- Mechanical: Energy related to the motion or position of an object.
- Thermal: Total energy of all particles in a material, reflecting temperature and kinetic activity.
- Chemical: Stored potential energy in the bonds of molecules, released during chemical reactions.
- Nuclear: Energy retained in an atom's nucleus, released through fission (splitting) or fusion (joining).
- Electrical: Energy produced by moving electrical charges, essential for powering devices.
- Electromagnetic: Energy that propagates through electromagnetic waves, including light.
Kinetic and Potential Energy
- Kinetic Energy: Energy possessed by an object due to its motion.
- Potential Energy: Energy that is stored in an object due to its position or state.
Types of Potential Energy
- Gravitational Potential Energy: Energy related to an object's height above a reference point, affected by mass and gravitational force.
- Elastic Potential Energy: Energy stored in elastic materials when they are compressed or expanded.
- Chemical Potential Energy: Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds, influencing reaction rates and energy release.
Formulas
- Gravitational Potential Energy (P.E.): Calculated as P.E. = mass x height x gravity, demonstrating the dependency on height and gravitational pull.
- Kinetic Energy (K.E.): Calculated as K.E. = 0.5 x (mass x speed²), emphasizing the quadratic relationship between speed and kinetic energy.
