ability to produce change
energy
energy an object prossesses by virtue of its motion
Kinetic energy
energy an object prossesses or aquires due to its height
gravitational energy
energy from the vibration of atoms and molecules within substances
Thermal energy
Materials that are good at tranfering thermal energy
Thermal conductor
materials that slow or prevent the tranger of thermal energy
Thermal insulator
tranfer of thermal energy through the movement of particels from one location to another
convection
tranfer of thermal energy by direct contact between particels in an object without movements to one particels to another
conduction
tranfer of thermal energy by infrated waves does not aquirie matter for tranfer
Radiation
