Law of Conservation of Energy
The idea that energy cannot be created or destroyed; only changed into another form
energy
the ability to do work or cause change
work
When a force acts upon an object to cause it to move in the direction of the applied force.
kinetic energy
a state of energy an object has due to its motion
potential energy
a state of energy stored in an object
energy transformation
the process of energy changing from one form to another
elastic potential energy
Energy stored by something that can stretch or compress
chemical potential energy
stored in the bonds between the atoms of compounds
gravitational potential energy
Potential energy that depends on the height of an object
energy transfer
the movement of energy from one system or object to another, often resulting in a change in kinetic or potential energy.
source object
that provides energy or work to another object.
receiver object
an object that receives energy during transformation or transfer.
system
a group of parts that work together to do a job, like a team.
