1. An object can possess energy through kinetic energy from its motion or potential energy from its position. Kinetic energy depends on mass and velocity while potential energy depends on position.
2. A kilowatt-hour equals 3.6 million joules. An adult radiates heat at the same rate as a 100-watt bulb, so in 24 hours they radiate about 2.1 kilocalories of heat energy.
3. Chemical reactions that release heat are exothermic, while those that absorb heat are endothermic. Heat change equals internal energy change during constant pressure processes.
