1. Energy
The ability to do work or cause changes in matter

2. Kinetic Energy
Moving bucket
Energy of Motion

3. Gravity Potential Energy
Stored Energy or
Energy of Position

4. Forms of Energy
Remember “MRS. CHEN”

Radiant
Energy carried by electromagnetic radiation (light) from a source
Energy of matter caused by its position or its motion

6. Chemical Sound Energy stored in matter because of its chemical makeup
Energy from the vibration of an object (that produces a noise)
Sound

7. Electrical Thermal (Heat)
Energy that is related to heat and temperature of matter
Thermal (Heat)
Energy due to charged matter/moving electrons

8. Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom
Nuclear
Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom

9. Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy is neither created nor destroyed; it is changed (converted) from one form into another.

26. Methods of Energy Transfer
Convection
Conduction
Radiation

27. Transfer of energy through matter from particle to particle
Conduction
Transfer of energy through matter from particle to particle

28. The transfer of heat energy in a gas or liquid by movement of currents
Convection
The transfer of heat energy in a gas or liquid by movement of currents
Ocean Currents are an example of Convection.

29. Radiation
Electromagnetic waves that directly transport ENERGY through space. Example: Sunlight

30. Energy Transformation
The process of energy changing from one form to another
Example: electrical energy to radiant energy

31. Benjamin Franklin
Discovered that lightning is a stream of electrified air, known as plasma. Helped to develop many of the energy terms we use today. Example: conductor, battery
