Energy Transfers • Energy transfers are the same form of energy going from one object to another
Transfers of EnergyCup of coffee warming hands Heat energy from coffee Heat energy in the cup Heat energy in hands (warming hands) Transferred Transferred
Transfer or energy Energy Transformations • Energy transformations are when one form of energy becomes another form of energy.
