Potential Energy • Definition and Mathematics of Work • Calculating the Amount of Work Done by Forces • Potential Energy • Kinetic Energy • Mechanical Energy • Power An object can store energy as the result of its position. For example‚ the heavy ball of a demolition machine is storing energy when it is held at an elevated position. This stored energy of position is referred to as potential energy. Similarly‚ a drawn bow is able to store energy as the result of its position. When assuming

Energy Lab On November 13th‚ we did a lab to learn about energy. The definition of Kinetic Energy is energy of movement. The definition of Gravitational Potential Energy is energy in an object due to its positioning. The question that we had to answer was whether of not we could calculate the Gravitational Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy of various objects in different locations. To do this lab we had to first weigh the given objects. For this time‚ we weighed : a marble‚ a bouncy ball‚

over the 20th century‚ global energy demands have exponentially increased creating a strain on the world’s energy resources. Interests into renewable energy sources have developed with the realization that the world’s global dependence on finite oil reserves is both unsustainable and damaging to the environment (Owen‚ 2004). Due in part to the harsh climate‚ energy intensive industries‚ and great distances between inhabitants‚ Canadians on average use the most energy per capita of the industrialized

Alternative Energy Alternative Energy Alternative energy refers to energy sources that have no undesired consequences such for example fossil fuels‚ nuclear energy and falling water. Fossil fuels are coal‚ petroleum and natural gas. There are some characteristics of the fossil fuels that made the concept of alternative energy come into place. (Alternative Energy) One of the fossil fuels‚ Petroleum‚ forms a thin film around the grains of the rock where it formed. Pressure from the overlying rock

SECTION ONE 1.1 INTRODUCTION One of the pre-requisites of manufacturing is abundance of energy i.e. electricity which is mainly utilized for driving machines for the production of various items. The manufacturing sector has always emphasized in their public policy advocacy‚ the need to improve various infrastructure‚ particularly‚ electricity which is the primary energy required for production. The uncompetitiveness of goods produced in Nigeria is largely due to the fact that apart from
