| Unit 5.1 - Energy around us. | By: Roqaiah Ali |
| What does energy do? | It makes things happen. |
|
What are 5 forms of energy?

Energy (binary/octet-stream)
|
- Kinetic energy - Heat energy - Light energy - Sound energy - Electrical energy |
| What is kinetic energy? | Energy possessed by a moving object. |
| What is potential energy? | Stored energy possessed by an object such as elastic potential energy of a squashed spring. |
| What best describes energy stored within a substance? | Chemical energy. |
| What is photosynthesis? | The process in which green plants convert light energy into chemical energy. |
| What are 4 different types of potential energy? | - Gravitational potential energy - Chemical energy - Elastic potential energy - Nuclear energy |
| What is nuclear energy? | Energy stored inside an atom. |
|
Define gravitational potential energy?

Gpe (binary/octet-stream)
|
The stored energy of an object that is held above the earth's surface. |
| What is the term called when energy is passed from one object to another? | Energy transfer. |
| What are 3 ways heat energy can be transferred in? |
- Conduction
- Convection
- Radiation

|
| What is conduction? | Heat transfer between 2 objects in contact. |
| What is radiation? | Heat transfer as a wave, which can even travel through the vacuum of space. |
| Define convection. | The transfer of heat in a liquid or gas. |
| What is it called when energy is changed or transformed? | Energy transformation. |
|
Define energy flow diagram.
Image:
Efd (binary/octet-stream)
|
A diagram using arrows that shows the way energy is passed on or changed into other forms. |
| What does the law of conservation of energy state? | Its states that energy can never be created nor destroyed. Instead, the energy is conserved, or kept, as it is converted from one form to another. |
|
What does the law of conservation mean?
Image:
Lce (binary/octet-stream)
|
It means: - Energy might be passed on or wasted but it is never lost - If one object wastes energy, than it is always gained by another object, usually heat. |
| What are the similarities between heat transfer by conduction and heat transfer by convection? | - Conduction and convection are methods of heat transfer - Particles are needed for conduction and convection to occur. |
| What are the differences between heat transfer by conduction and heat transfer by convection? | Convection is a type of heat transfer that occurs in liquids and gases whereas conduction occurs only in solids. |
