energy stores and systems

    Cards (11)

    • give different energy stores
      kinetic, thermal, gravitational potential, elastic potential, chemical, magnetic, nuclear and electrostatic
    • describe kinetic energy store
      energy stored due to movement of object
    • describe thermal energy store
      energy stored due to the temperature of object
    • describe gravitational potential energy store
      energy stored due to position in gravitational field
    • describe elastic potential energy store
      energy stored due to stretch or squash of object
    • describe chemical energy store
      energy stored in chemical bonds of object
    • describe magnetic energy store
      energy stored by attraction or repulsion of magnets
    • describe nuclear energy store
      energy stored inside nuclei of atoms
    • describe electrostatic energy store
      energy stored by attraction or repulsion of charges
    • describe specific heat capacity
      energy required to raise temperature of 1kg of substance by 1°C
    • describe power
      rate of energy transfer or work done
