17
Q

what is temperature a measure of?

A

average kinetic energy

18
Q

energy lost from gpe store=

A

energy gained in kinetic store

19
Q

what is specific heat capacity

A

the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1c

20
Q

power is..

A

rate of energy transfer or doing work

21
Q

conduction

A

process by which vibrating particles transfer energy to neighbouting particles

22
Q

thermal insulation

A

a material providing high restance to heat flow.

23
Q

lubricant

A

used to reduce the friction between the objects surfaces when they move

24
Q

efficiency

A

transfer energy from one energy store to a more useful one.

25
equation of efficiency =
useful output energy transfer / total input energy transfer
26
how can you improve efficiency
by insulating objects
27
non renewable energy resources examples
coal,oil,natural gas and nuclear fuels(uranium and plutonium)
28
renewable energy resource examples
wind,water waves,tides,hydroelectricity,the sun(solar), geothermal and bio fuel
