1
New cards

conservation of energy

energy can’t be created of destroyed, it can be transferred

2
New cards

dissipate

scattered in all directions or used wastefully

usually wasted energy spreads out and ends up in the thermal energy store of the surroundings

3
New cards

conserving energy- the factors that affect the rate of thermal energy transfer

  • surface area

  • colour

  • texture

  • material

  • temperature gradient

4
New cards

thermal conductivity

measure of how well a material transfers them energy when it is heated

5
New cards

insulation

materials with a low conductivity
