Q

Principle of conservation of energy

A

Energy can be stored, transferred between stores, or dissipated
But can never be created or destroyed
The total energy of a closed system has no net change

Q

Conduction and convection

A

Are energy transfers that involve the transfer of energy by particles

24
Q

Conduction

A

Main form of energy transfer by heating in solids

25
Convection
Main form of energy transfer by heating in liquid and gases
26
Emission of thermal radiation
Occurs in solids liquids and gases Any object can both absorb and emit thermal radiation Whether or not conduction or convection are also taking place
27
The bigger the temperature difference the ….
Faster energy is transferred between the thermal energy stores of a body and its surroundings
28
Thermal radiation involves
29
Conduction
30
Thermal conduction
Process where vibrating particles transfer energy from their kinetic energy store to the kinetic energy stored of neighbouring particles
31
Experiment to demonstrate conduction
32
Convection
The occurs when the more energetic particles move from a hotter region to a cooler region and transfer energy as they do
33
Immersion heater example
34
Energy transfers by heating
35
How to investigate emission of IR radiation
36
Work done
Energy transferred
37
Principle work done
When a force moves an object through a distance Work is done On the object and Energy is transferred
38
Formula work done
Work done = force x distance moved
39
Power
Rate of doing work Ie How much per second
40
Power definition
Power is the rate at which energy is transferred
41
Power Work done Time taken Calculation
42
