CONSERVATION

OF ENERGY
Law Of Conservation Of
Energy

The law of conservation of energy


says that energy can neither be
created nor be destroyed. However
it only transfers from one form to
another form but the total amount
of energy remains same.
Transfer Of Energy

Energy is transfers from one form


to another like GPE is transferred
to KE. For example a pen have the
GPE and if I will throw it its GPE
will change into KE and when it
will hit the ground KE will change
to sound and heat (if air resistence
present) energy.
Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy exists whenever an
object which has mass is in motion
with some velocity. Its formula is
KE=1/2(m)(v2) and its unit is joules.
Lets do a numerical.
Mass=1200 kg
Velocity= 27m/s
KE= ½ (1200)(27x27)
= 437400 J
Potential Energy

Potential Energy exists


Whenever an object
has mass and has
Position witnin a force
field. Its formula is
PE=mgh. Lets do a numerical to
understand better.
Mass= 5kg
Height= 100m
PE= (5)(10)(100)
=5000 J
