Study Notes
Types of Energy
-
Sound Energy: Energy travels as waves through matter. It's kinetic energy.
-
Electrical Energy: Energy from moving electrons. It's kinetic energy.
-
Nuclear Energy: Potential energy stored within atomic nuclei, released through fission or fusion.
-
Mechanical Energy: The sum of potential and kinetic energy within an object or system. It remains constant.
-
Chemical Energy: Energy stored in the bonds between atoms and molecules.
-
Radiant Energy: Energy from light waves. It's kinetic energy. Examples include solar energy.
-
Thermal Energy: Energy from heat. It's kinetic energy.
-
Potential Energy: Stored energy. Gravitational potential energy is highest when an object is highest above the ground.
-
Kinetic Energy: Energy of motion. Highest when an object is moving the fastest.
-
Law of Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.
-
Energy Transfer: Energy changes from one form to another. Heat is often a byproduct of this change.
-
Electromagnetic Energy: Energy traveling through space as waves, including radio and satellite waves.
