1.7.1.1—Energy may be stored as kinetic
- State: energy may be stored as kinetic, gravitational potential, chemical, elastic (strain), nuclear, electrostatic and internal (thermal)
1.7.1.2—Energy is transferred between stores
- Describe how energy is transferred between stores during events and processes, including examples of transfer by forces (mechanical work done), electrical currents (electrical work done), heating, and by electromagnetic, sound and other waves
1.7.1.3—Principle of the conservation of
- Know the principle of the conservation of energy and apply this principle to simple examples including the interpretation of simple flow diagrams
1.7.1.4—Kinetic energy: Ek = 1/2 mv^2
- Recall/use kinetic energy: Ek = 1/2 mv^2
1.7.1.5—Recall/use: for the change in
- Recall/use: for the change in gravitational potential energy ∆Ep = mg∆h
1.7.1.6—Principle of the conservation of
- Know the principle of the conservation of energy and apply this principle to complex examples involving multiple stages, including the interpretation of Sankey diagrams
