the conservation of energy

Question 1

What is the equation for change
thermal energy

Answer 1

E = mc x change in termperature

c is the specific heat capacity of material

mass x termparature change x specific heat capacity

Question 2

What is the equation for nuclear energy

Answer 2

E = mc^2

c is speed of light

Question 3

What is the equation for elastic potential energy

Answer 3

1/2 Fe

F is the force

e is the extension of material

Question 4

whats an example of elastic potential energy

Answer 4

the work done in stretching an elastic material is stored as elastic potential energy

Question 5

define a closed system

Answer 5

any system which all the energy transfers are accounted for. Energy or matter cannot enter or leave a closed system.

Question 6

define the principle of conservation of energy

Answer 6

The total energy of a closed system remains constant.

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only be transferred from one form to another.
