What is the Law of Conservation of Energy |
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only be transferred from one form to another |
|
Energy transfer Microphone Fire Skydiver |
Sound ➝ Electrical Chemical (Wood) ➝ Heat + Light Gravitational Potential (In Plane)➝ Kinetic (falling) |
|
What are the Eight form's of Energy |
Gravitational Potential, Electrical, Light, Sound, Strain (Elastic), Chemical, Kinetic and Heat. |
|
What is the Difference between renewable and non renewable energy |
Renewable Energy is kind on the environment whereas Non Renewable Energy is always chemical energy and is usually a Fossil Fuel. |
|

|
What is refraction? |
Refraction is when light changes direction due to a change of speed as it enters from one medium to another, it is alos when light slows down it moves the norman and when light speeds up it moves away from the normal. The normal is drawn Perpendicular (at right angles to the surface of the new medium. |
|
What is Dispersion? |
White light consists of a combination of the different colours of the rainbow. White light must travel through a prism to disperse into the different colours,those are red orange yellow green blue indigo and violet |
|
Some Sound Fundamentals |
It is Made by Vibrating matter it travels much slower then light and Frequency and Amplitude |
|
So what is Frequency |
The speed at which the matter vibrates and how high or low the sound is. |
|
Sound Travel |
Sound travels in two types of wave the Transverse and the Longitudinal |
|
What is the formula for how fast sound travels |
speed = distance/time |
