Energy stores Ø Chemical energy stores include fuels, foods or the chemicals found in

Energy stores Ø Chemical energy stores include fuels, foods or the chemicals found in batteries. The energy is transferred during chemical reactions. Ø Kinetic energy stores describe the energy an object has because it is moving. Ø Gravitational potential energy stores are used to describe the energy stored in an object because of its position, such as an object above the ground. Ø Elastic potential energy stores describe the energy stored in a springy object when you stretch or squash it. Ø Thermal energy stores describe the energy a substance has because of its temperature. Energy transfers Ø Heating transfer such as conduction or convection. Ø Waves transfer such as light radiation or sound. Ø Electric current transfer through a conductor. Ø A force transfer when it moves an object.
