Chemical energy

asalazar263 — 2024-03-13 18:13:34 UTC

- Energy formed from chemical reactions, examples including food, chemical batteries, wood, oil/coal, natural gas, and photosynthesis
- Form of potential energy stored in the bonds of chemicals and also found in atoms and subatomic particles
- The chemical energy can be released or absorbed such as in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis absorbs more energy than it releases (photosynthesis - 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ and cellular respiration - C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP)
- The energy is released and absorbed when a chemical reaction takes place. For example, in ATP hydrolysis, the chemical energy stored in the bonds is released when water is added to the compound (hydro-water lysis-to unbind)

Definition

etucci6 — 2024-03-13 18:18:15 UTC

Kinetic energy, “is a form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason if it’s motion” simpler, kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion.

Acoustical Energy

klondon8 — 2024-03-13 18:21:30 UTC

- Sound
- Can be transmitted from one place to another
- Travels in waves
- Speakers use acoustic energy

Nuclear Energy

ankambhampati — 2024-03-13 18:21:41 UTC

Definition: energy released during a nuclear fission(splitting something into 2 or more parts) or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity

energy in the nucleus/core of an atom
- the energy is what holds the atom together

Electromagnetic Energy

anharoon — 2024-03-13 18:22:10 UTC

Radio waves, Micro waves, Infrared, Visible light, UV, X-rays, Gamma rays

-They can travel through air, solid materials and through the vacuum of space
-The shorter the wavelength, the more powerful the wave
-Made of waves and photons
-Humans can only see visible light
-They are apart of our everyday lives: phones, radios, the sun and more
-Some of the rays can’t get through the earths atmosphere
-They can travel an infinite amount
-The electric and magnetic waves work on two planes
-Gamma rays can kill cancer cells

Electrical energy

sschmerin — 2024-03-13 18:23:05 UTC

- related to forces on electrically charged particles and the movement of those particles
- delivered by a circuit
- examples: batteries, lightning, electrical charges
- flow of charges particles
- generator converts mechanical energy to electrical energy
- form of kinetic energy
