Mechanically transferred - a force makes something MOVE (pushed, pulled, stretched, squashed), Energy transfer: Heating - Energy is transferred from hotter to colder objects, Electrically transferred: - Electric charges move around an electric circuit, carrying energy, Energy transfer by light & sound: - When light or sound waves carry energy from one place to another, A falling object moving because of gravity: - Gravitational energy store -> kinetic energy store, Burning fuel - Chemical energy store -> thermal energy store of surroundings, Electrical circuit with motor: - Chemical energy (battery) -> kinetic energy (motor), When a FORCE moves an object across a DISTANCE - ENERGY is transferred, The equation for energy that is transferred mechanically: - Energy (J) = Force (N) x Distance (m), Energy is measured in - Joules, You move a heavy box 5m and pull with a force of 50N - Energy transferred = 250J, When you stretch a spring the energy transfer is: - Kinetic energy -> elastic potential energy, When you release a spring the energy transfer is: - Elastic potential -> kinetic energy,
