Kinetic energy
|
energy associated with motion
|
|
|
Gravitational potential energy
|
G.P.E.=weight X height, potential to move (distances between two objects) remember think of someone holding a ball up in the air
|
|
|
Electric potential energy
|
is large either when two like charges are close together, or when two unlike charges are far apart
|
|
|
work
|
as the force times the distance the body moves parallel to the force. It is a process of transferring energy from one object to another
|
|
|
conduction
|
internal energy flows from a hot object to a cold object-but they have to be in contact. Ex: hand on the stove
|
|
|
convection
|
matter moves, as in a liquid or gas-and carries internal energy with it. Ex: baking a cake
|
|
|
radiation
|
energy flows by electromagnetic waves. Ex: warming yourself up at the side of a fire
