Forms of Energy Flashcards
(9 cards)
Measurement of total movement of particles
Thermal
Energy stored in bonds of atoms and molecules
Chemical
Energy stored in the core of the atom. Holds protons and neutrons of the nucleus together.
Nuclear
Energy originated from the movement of electric charges.
Electrical
Energy of an object because of it’s position or height and it’ mass. Formula:Ep=mgh
Potential Gravitational
Energy stored in an object when stressed or compressed.
Potential elastic
Electromagnetic energy that travels in waves (x-rays)
Radiant
Energy related to the movement of objects, depends on mass and speed pf the object (car moving) Formula: Ek=1/2mv^2
Kinetical
Type of motion energy, because is the movement of the particles from waves (vibration)
Sound
