Document Summary
Electrostatic energy eel (q1q2)/d q = charge; d = distance (proportional: potential energy that results from interaction of charged particles. Law of conservation of energy energy cannot be created or destroyed (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) * amu g: 1. 661x10-24 g / 1 amu ; must use kg for mass of atom in.

All energy is a type of it (ex. Blackbody radiation electromagnetic radiation emitted after a solid is heated: ex: red glow of the element of an electric stove; bright white light of tungsten lightbulb. Amount of energy given off at a certain temperature depends on its wavelength. Energy of a single quantum of energy:
