  2. Kinetic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy

    Kinetic energy is the movement energy of an object. Kinetic energy can be transferred between objects and transformed into other kinds of energy. [10] Kinetic energy may be best understood by examples that demonstrate how it is transformed to and from other forms of energy.

  3. Outline of energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_energy

    Kinetic energy, the form of energy as a consequence of the motion of an object or its constituents; Mechanical energy, the potential energy and kinetic energy present in the components of a mechanical system; Binding energy, a concept explaining how the constituents of atoms or molecules are bound together

  4. Glossary of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_physics

    A physical constant relating the average kinetic energy of the particles in a gas with the temperature of the gas. It is the gas constant R divided by the Avogadro constant NA. Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) boson A type of subatomic particle that behaves according to Bose–Einstein statistics and possesses integer spin.

  5. Specific kinetic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_kinetic_energy

    The specific kinetic energy of a system is a crucial parameter in understanding its dynamic behavior and plays a key role in various scientific and engineering applications. Specific kinetic energy is an intensive property, whereas kinetic energy and mass are extensive properties. The SI unit for specific kinetic energy is the joule per ...

  6. Mechanical energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_energy

    In physical sciences, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that if an isolated system is subject only to conservative forces , then the mechanical energy is constant.

  7. Kinetics (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetics_(physics)

    In physics and engineering, kinetics is the branch of classical mechanics that is concerned with the relationship between the motion and its causes, specifically, forces and torques.

  8. Kinetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic

    Kinetic (Ancient Greek: κίνησις “kinesis”, movement or to move) may refer to: Kinetic theory , describing a gas as particles in random motion Kinetic energy , the energy of an object that it possesses due to its motion

  9. Heat transfer physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_physics

    The macroscopic energy equation for infinitesimal volume used in heat transfer analysis is [6] = +, ˙, where q is heat flux vector, −ρc p (∂T/∂t) is temporal change of internal energy (ρ is density, c p is specific heat capacity at constant pressure, T is temperature and t is time), and ˙ is the energy conversion to and from thermal ...
