Energy is transferred mechanically (by a force doing work), electrically (work done by moving charges), by heating or by radiation (e.g. light or sound)
When energy is transferred to an object, the energy is stored in one of the objects energy stored
When a system changes, energy is transferred
1) A system is just a fancy word for a single object (e.g. the air in a piston) or a group of objects (e.g. two colliding vehicles) that you are interested in.
2) When a system changes, energy is transferred.it can be transferred into or away from the system, between different objects in the system or between different types of energy stores
3) Closed systems are systems where neither matter nor energy can enter or leave. the net change in the total energy of a closed system is always 0
