Types of energy by Allshouse, Emilio

Light or radiant energy

Light energy is moved by light, and it helps us see. Some things that use light energy is radio waves, UV light and x-rays.

Thermal energy

Thermal energy is related with temperature in fact, it all has do with molecules. An example is when it is cold the molecules move slower making it cold. However, when it is hot the molecules move faster making it hot. Thermal energy can some times be waste energy.

Chemical energy

Chemical energy is energy in the bonds between atoms. When someone eats the bond breaks and it is used as fuel. The bonds break and energy is released when the fuel is burned.

Sound energy

Sound energy is moved by sound waves. How it is created is when an object vibrates. Sound energy can go through matter.

Electrical energy

671553 — 2024-02-13 23:11:05 UTC

Electrical energy is moved by charged particles it move also be called electricity. The particles can collected on an object, this make stored electrical energy or static electricity. It move from one place to another this makes current electrical energy. Electrical energy also uses electrons it travels thought wires and/or cables.

Mechanical energy

Mechanical energy is an object that can be in a motion or position, it is also used to lift, hold and move things.

What is energy

671553 — 2024-02-14 14:50:45 UTC

Energy is to be able to do work, work is when you force something to move or change something. It can also apply a force to anything that has energy. An example of energy is light energy.

Energy transfer

671553 — 2024-02-14 20:30:27 UTC

Energy transfer is when energy is moved from a place to another, as a different kind of energy. It is also the kinetic energy from an object that is moving to an object that is not. An example of this is solar radiation.

Energy transformation

671553 — 2024-02-14 20:46:32 UTC

Energy transformation is energy that changes and/or the process of one energy to another. Energy transformation can also be known as energy conversion. In physics, it is also the amount of energy that can be hold while doing work. An example of this is a light bulb transforming electrical energy to light energy.

Law of conservation of energy

671553 — 2024-02-14 20:53:29 UTC

The law of conservation of energy states, energy cannot be created or destroyed, however it can change one from of energy to another. An example of this is firewood burning.

Can energy change

671553 — 2024-02-15 01:23:21 UTC

Yes, energy change, however energy cannot be created or destroyed so when something loses energy something else gains energy. When the motion of something changes so does the energy. Also, when a force is moved an object, as well as that object's energy changes. An example of this is electrical to thermal energy.

Can energy be created or destroyed

671553 — 2024-02-15 01:49:53 UTC

No, energy cannot be created or destroyed. Energy can be change from one energy to another, this is called energy transformation. An example of this is a toaster turning electrical energy to thermal energy.

Can an object transfer more than one type of energy

671553 — 2024-02-15 02:02:17 UTC

Yes, an object transfers more than one type of energy. An example of this would be kinetic or potential energy because. They can be any type of energy Another example of this would be thermal energy. This is because it can come in three ways, conduction, convection and radiation.

How does energy flow in a system

671553 — 2024-02-15 02:20:02 UTC

How does energy flow in a system is, when sunlight or solar comes in the wildlife. Soon the plants undergo a chemical reaction know as photosynthesis. An example is when herbivores eat the plant transferring and when carnivores eat the herbivores.
