how
use energy appliances
switch off electrical appliances when not in use
fuel power stations need to burn fuel to produce electricity
converting energy
energy cannot be created or destroyed
measured in joule (j)
can be converted from one form to another
tracing energy back to the sun
forms of energy
light
heat
electrical
sound
kinetic
due to an objects motion
when it is at rest, there is no kinetic energy
factors affecting the amount if ke
mass
greater the mas the greater amount of ke
speed
greater the speed, the greater the amount of ke
potential energy
gravitational potential
due to its position above ground
factors affecting the amount of gpe
mass
greater the mass , the greater the amount of gpe
height
greater the height, the greater the amount of gpe
elastic potential
chemical potential
fuel
