ENERGY
-
conservation and dissipation
-
-
Energy stores
-
-
Elastic energy is the potential mechanical energy stored in the configuration of a material or physical system as work is performed to distort its volume or shape.
energy transfers
-
force
-
mechanical advantage
measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system.
waves
-
-
A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium, but they cannot travel through a vaccum
An electromagnetic wave can travel through anything - be it air, a solid material or vacuum. It does not need a medium to propagate or travel from one place to another.

Free falling object
Terminal velocity
the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium through which it is falling prevents further acceleration.

Non-renewable
Nuclear energy
-
alpha decay, beta decay, or gamma decay can occur during a nuclear decay
-
-
Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release nuclear energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power plant.
nuclear fusion
a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei are combined to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles
nuclear fission
a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller, lighter nuclei.
