2. Kinetic/Potential energy
• Kinetic energy- The energy of motion. The faster an object the more
kinetic energy it has.
• Potential energy- The amount of useable energy within a body at rest.
• Airplane Question-When an airplane takes off it will start rising as it gets
higher the potential energy will increase and the kinetic energy will also
increase. Now lets say something different if it goes down the potential
energy will decrease and the kinetic energy will also decrease.
4. Heat transfer
• Conduction- The transfer of heat from one
substance to another by direct contact.
• Radiation- The transfer of heat in the form of
rays or waves.
• Convection- The transfer of heat through a
fluid caused by molecular motion.
