  • Store (1)
  • Store: A body with the potential to release energy. (1)
  • Kinetic: The energy of a body with motion. (1)
  • Chemical potential: Stored energy in bonds between particles. (1)
  • Sound: A form of energy, travels through particles typically in waves. (1)
  • Light: A form of energy, which travels in transverse waves without the need of a medium. (1)
  • Electrical: Energy of charged particles. (1)
  • Gravitational potential: A store of energy, defined by the distance between two objects with mass. (1)
  • Magnetic: The energy stored between two objects with attractive or repulsive magnetic attractions. (1)
  • Nuclear: A store of energy in sub-atomic bonds inside an element. (1)
  • Thermal (Heat): The energy of the average molecules in an object. (1)
  • Elastic potential: A store of energy in stretched or compressed materials. (1)
  • Flow: Energy in particular bodies usually involves the movement of energy from one area to another. (1)

T It takes energy to do anything. Why do we need energy?

Think of an object that does something, describe the energy it is showing. eg: - to move - give out light, - make sound or - get hotter it requires energy

W The 8 simple forms of energy: Light Sound Chemical potential Kinetic (Movement) Electrical Gravitational potential Elastic potential Thermal (Heat) (Nuclear) (Magnetic) What are the 8 forms of energy?

Circle Map Energy names Identify the best terms. Explain the difference between forms of energy and energy resources.

T These can be categorised into stores and flows of energy. Stores of energy can be left and returned to and the energy still be there. Flows of energy travel from one place to another. What is the difference between a store of energy and a flow of energy?

W The Stores of energy: - Gravitational potential - Elastic potential - Chemical potential - (Nuclear potential) The Flows of energy are - Light - Sound - Kinetic (Movement) - Electrical - Thermal (Heat) - movement of particles What are the stores of energy? What are the flows of energy?
