    different types of energy transfer For us to do work‚ we need energy. Energy is measured in joules‚ (J) or kilojoules (kJ) Energy exists in many different forums such as Kinetic and potential energyKinetic energy is the movement of energy and potential is stored energyenergy ready to go. A lawn mower filled with gasoline‚ a car on top of a hill‚ and students waiting to go home from school are all examples of potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is the energy crazed by a body

    WAVE ENERGY Chapter 2: Energy Technology 2.1 Source of Wave Energy Ocean waves are caused by the wind as it blows across the open expanse of water‚ the gravitational pull from the sun and moon‚ and changes in atmospheric pressure‚ earthquakes etc. Waves created by the wind are the most common waves and the waves relevant for most wave energy technology. Wave energy conversion takes advantage of the ocean waves caused primarily by the interaction of winds with the ocean surface. Wave energy is an

    the theories of conservation of momentum and kinetic energy in different types of 2D collisions. In order to do this‚ both an elastic and inelastic collision was conducted on an air table with pucks. A video was taken and analyzed to determine velocity‚ allowing for future finding of momentum and kinetic energy values. By finding these‚ it was possible to determine which kind of collision took place. With low values of change in momentum and kinetic energy that occurred in elastic collisions‚ it is

    and final momentum are equal irrespective of their masses and initial velocities. The results show that momentum and kinetic energy of the system is conserved during an elastic collision while only momentum is conserved during inelastic collision. Kinetic energy is not conserved during an inelastic collision. This was found by dividing the final kinetic energy by the initial kinetic and getting a number that was close to one. Which is was fairly close in most cases. Introduction: The purpose of

    Extra Credit Assignment Energy Transfer in living systems Energy is the capacity to do work. All living organisms require energy for carrying on their vital metabolic activities. The primary source of energy for living system is solar radiation. The radiant energy of sunlight cannot be utilized directly by all living organisms. This ability rests only with the green plants. All the other organisms have to meet their energy requirement only through the green plants. Energy that flows in the living
