        • radio, micro, IF, visible, UV, X ray, gamma
          • in order of low energy to high energy
      • transfer of energy through heating process
        • types:
          • convection
          • conduction
          • radiation
          • evaporatio& condensation
        • thermal radiation
        • specific heat capacity
          • the amount of energy required to change the temp. of 1 kilogram of material by 1 degree celsiius
        • house insulation
    • types of energy
      • chemical potential
      • elastic potential
      • kinetic

      • thermal
      • gravitational potential energy (GPE)
      • nuclear?
    • whenever energy is transferred there is waste! (nothing is 100% efficient)
    • efficiency= amount of useful energy out                 ---------------amount of total energy in
      • if you want to find  the percentage just times the equation by 100
    • power station & national grid
