Physics
  1. Energy Transfer
    1. Types of Energy
      1. Chemical Kinectic Nuclear Electric Thermal Radient Sound Potential- Gravitational Elastic
      2. Sankey Diagrams
        1. Total Energy input= Wasted energy+ Useful energy
          1. Wasted energy line goes down
            1. Useful energy line goes straight across
              1. efficiency= useful energy output/ total energy input
              2. Conduction
                1. Heat energy is conducted from the hot end to the cold end by atoms bumping into each other
                  1. Metals are good conductors
                    1. have many free moving electrons
                  2. Convection
                    1. Warmer, less dense liquid rises and hotter, more dense liquid falls causing a convection current
                      1. Happens in liquids and gasses
                        1. E.g in a room a radiator causes a convection current
                        2. Radiation
                          1. When the heats hits an object some of it is absorbed and makes the molecules vibrate causing the object to heat up
                            1. Matt Black is a good radiator
                              1. Shiny silver is a bad radiator
                              2. Insulators
                                1. Dont let heat through them
                                  1. Opposite to Conductors
