Calculating Energy

Cards (5)

  • Kinetic Energy
    Ek=E_k=12mv2\frac{1}{2}mv^2
  • Elastic Potential
    Ee=E_e=12mv2\frac{1}{2}mv^2
  • Gravitational Potential Energy
    Ep=E_p=mghmgh
  • What is specific heat capacity?
    The energy required to raise the temperature of 1kjg of a substance by 1 degree
  • What is the equation for specific heat capacity?
    energy = mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change
    E=E=mcΔTmc\Delta T
