===Meaning===
An [[Energy Transfer]] is when [[energy]] moves from one [[Energy Store|energy store]] to another [[Energy Store|energy store]].
===About Energy Transfers===
: [[Energy ]] can be '''transferred ''' from one [[object ]] to anotheror between [[Energy Store|energy stores]] within the same [[object]]. For example on a pool table when white ball hits another ball '''energy is transferred''' from the [[Kinetic Energy Store|kinetic store]] of the white ball to the [[Kinetic Energy Store|kinetic store]] of the other ball.
: There are 4 ways energy can be transferred;
*[[Mechanical Energy Transfer|Mechanically]]- By the action of a [[force]].*[[Electricity|Electrically]] - By an [[Electrical Current|electrical current]].*[[Radiation|By radiation]]- By [[Light]] [[wave]]s or [[Sound]] [[wave]]s.*[[Heating|By heating]]- By [[Thermal Conduction|conduction]], [[convection]] or [[Thermal Radiation|radiation]]. ==Key Stage 4=====Meaning===An [[Energy Transfer]] is when [[energy]] moves from one [[Energy Store|energy store]] to another [[Energy Store|energy store]]. ===About Energy Transfers===: [[Energy]] and be '''transferred''' between [[Energy Store|stores]] in a [[system]]. This may be between the different [[Energy Store|energy stores]] of a single [[object]] or between the [[Energy Store|energy stores]] of different [[object]]s within that [[system]].
