What is done when energy changes from one store to another?
Work
2 of 24
Energy stored in fuels (like wood, or the gas we run Bunsen burners on) is called what?
Chemical Potential Energy.
3 of 24
Elastic objects, like springs or rubber bands, store what when they are stretched?
Elastic Potential Energy.
4 of 24
Any moving object stores what energy?
Kinetic Energy.
5 of 24
Any object that is not on the ground has what energy?
Gravitational Potential Energy.
6 of 24
All objects store what energy - this is because the particles are moving
Thermal Energy
7 of 24
This is how energy changes from place to place.When energy changes from one store to another.
Energy Transfer.
8 of 24
Energy cannot be created or destroyed. All that can be changed is how it is stored. This ideas is called the what of energy?
Law of conservation.
9 of 24
When a fuel is burned, the chemical potential energy in the fuel ends up stored as what?
Thermal energy.
10 of 24
When an object falls off a shelf, the what turns into kinetic energy while it is falling?
Gravitational potential energy.
11 of 24
When a spring that’s been stretched is released, the elastic potential energy it stored is transferred to what then to what?
Kinetic and Thermal Energy.
12 of 24
When the object hits the floor, all the gravitational potential energy it had to start with ends up stored as what energy in the surroundings?
Thermal Energy.
13 of 24
Energy is stored in fuels as what energy?
Chemical Potential Energy.
14 of 24
Energy is stored in anything elastic when it is stretched, what is this energy?
Elastic Potential Energy.
15 of 24
Energy is stored in any object that has been lifted up, because the object stores what?
gravitational potential energy.
16 of 24
Energy is stored in moving objects as what?
Kinetic Energy.
17 of 24
Energy is stored in any object as what energy? (Obviously, if it is cold, it doesn’t store much of it!)
Heat (Thermal) Energy
18 of 24
what is the measure of the average amount of kinetic energy of tall the particles in a substance?
Temperature
19 of 24
What is the energy stored in substances thanks to the energy of their particles. Also called thermal energy?
Heat
20 of 24
Name one way that thermal energy can be transferred. Objects that are touching can transfer thermal energy, from the hotter object to the cooler one.
Conduction
21 of 24
Name a way that thermal energy can be transferred. All objects give out infra red ........?....... Hotter objects give out (emit) infra red ........?........ that is absorbed by cooler objects.
Radiation
22 of 24
The more heat (thermal energy) that is stored in a substance , the higher the what?
Temperature
23 of 24
When hot air is less dense and therefore rises. Cold air is more dense and therefore sinks. This creates a what current?
Convection
