Energy - A Basic Understanding (3)
We do, however, know much more about how energy behaves than we do about what it actually is. Energy is the constant evolving force that causes change. Many of the websites and textbooks out there define energy as “the ability to do work”, but this definition is lacking. Energy is the core of physical matter and it’s what makes things happen, it’s what makes things change condition. Whether things change shape, volume, chemical composition, pressure, temperature, or density, it’s all a reaction of energy. Without energy, nothing would ever change. Nothing would ever happen.
I found an interesting little article about energy at http://www.ftexploring.com/me/everything.html

Whatever happens is caused by it. Whatever is, is made up of it. You need it. You are made of it. Everything needs it. Everything is it. You need it to run, to walk, to sit, You can’t get mad without it. It makes the wind blow, rain fall, and lightning zap and thunder. It “feeds” volcanoes and earthquakes. It drives tidal waves, typhoons, and tornadoes. |
