Meaning
Calculating energy stores can be done using information about properties, motion and fields affecting an object.
About Calculating Energy Stores
The following energy stores can be calculated from other quantities:
- Thermal Energy = Mass x (Specific Heat Capacity) x (Change in Temperature)
- Elastic Potential Energy = 0.5 x (Spring Constant) x (Extension)2
- Kinetic Energy = 0.5 x (Mass) x (Speed)2
- Gravitational Potential Energy = (Mass) x (gravitational field strength) x (change in height)
