|
What happens to Wasted Energy? |
Wasted energy eventually takes the form of heat energy and dissipates (spreads out) into the surroundings. |
|
What is the Conservation of Energy? |
Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only transform/transfer into another energy/place |
|
Energy is measured in...? |
Energy is measured in Joules (J) |
|
Power is measured in...? |
Power is measured in Watts (W) |
|
Current is measured in...? |
Current is measured in Amps (A) |
|
Voltage is measured in...? |
Voltage is measured in Voltage (V) |
|
What is Current? |
Current is the rate of flow of charge |
|
What is Voltage? |
Voltage is the difference in electrical energy per unit of charge before and after going through a device |
|
What is a Transducer? |
A Transducer is a device that casues energy transformation |
|
What is Energy Transfer? |
Energy transfer is when energy goes from one place to another |
|
What is Energy Transformation? |
Energy transformation is when energy change from one type to another |
|
Efficiency=? |
Efficiency = useful output/ Time
(x100)% |
|
GPE=? |
GPE= Mass X Gravity X Height |
|
Energy=? |
Energy= Power X Time |
|
Electrical Power=? |
Electrical Power= Current X Voltage
(I) X (V) |
|
What are known as Units of Electricity? |
KWh are known as units of electricity
e.g. 1KWh = 1unit |
|
Cost=? |
Cost = Price per unit X Number of units |
|
1KW=? |
1KW= 1 000 W |
