Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. An
object which has motion - whether it be vertical
or horizontal motion - has kinetic energy. There
are many forms of kinetic energy - vibrational
(the energy due to vibrational motion),
rotational (the energy due to rotational motion),
and translational (the energy due to motion from
one location to another).

• To keep matters simple, we will focus upon
  translational kinetic energy. The amount of
  translational kinetic energy (from here on, the
  phrase kinetic energy will refer to translational
  kinetic energy) which an object has depends upon
  two variables the mass (m) of the object and the
  speed (v) of the object. The following equation
  is used to represent the kinetic energy (KE) of
  an object.

where m mass of objectv speed of object
This equation reveals that the kinetic energy of
an object is directly proportional to the square
of its speed. That means that for a twofold
increase in speed, the kinetic energy will
increase by a factor of four.

Thermal energy is the total potential energy
and kinetic energy of an objects
particle.Convection is heat transfer movement
of matter. When water is heated on a stove, for
example, water near the bottom of the of the pot
rises by convection.

• Conduction is the heat transfer by movement of
  particles.
• Example A metal spoon in a bowl of hot soup is
  warmed by conduction of heat from particle to
  particle along the length of the spoon.
• Radiation is the heat transfer by
  electromagnetic waves. Unlike convection and
  conduction, radiation can move through empty
  space as well as through matter.
• Example energy from the sun travels by radiation
  through space.

• The temperature of the substance increaess as it
  absorbs heat. Specific heat is the amount of heat
  needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram
  of a substance by 10C.
• Land near a lake or ocean, for example, changes
  temperature faster than water that is nearby
  because water has a higher specific heat than
  land.

ENERGY CHANGES Energy often changes from one
form to another. A rock on a cliff has only
gravitational potential energy, but if the rock
falls, the energy changes to kinetic energy. A
light bulb changes electrical energy to thermal
energy and light. Chemical energy in gasoline
changes to kinetic energy as a car moves.
