What are energy stores?Show answer
Energy is stored in different ways. The main stores you need are:
What are energy transfers?Show answer
Energy is moved between stores by different pathways: mechanically (by a force doing work), electrically (by a current), by heating, and by radiation (light, sound, infrared).
What is conservation of energy?Show answer
This is why, in calculations, the energy you start with must all be accounted for at the end, even if some of it ends up in less useful forms.
