Learn Unit 9A: Energy Conversion and Conservation

energy an object has due to its motion

​

​kinetic energy

energy that is stored as a result of position or shape

​

​potential energy

energy of moving electrons

​

​electrical energy

energy in a substance that can be released by a chemical reaction

​

chemical energy

energy from a vibrating object (part of mechanical energy)

​

sound energy

energy of light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation

​

light energy

the amount of heat energy in an object

​

thermal energy (heat)

the process of changing one form of energy to another

​

energy transformation

Law that states: energy cannot be created or destroyed; rather, it changes from one form to another

​
