So my economics teacher got mad when none of us knew the answer to this.

He asked us what it's called when I use up energy "like when i'm shouting at you right now." He said it's a state of "E" (meaning it state of something that starts with the letter E). Anyone know what it is?

(I already tried Googling it)

hello, I am a physics student.

Energy is not used, it changes from one form to another.

When energy changes in a system, this can be described as work done on, or by, the system.

Work=Change in energy

Work done over a period of time is power. Power.

This is an economics class, not a physics class, and i'm pretty sure he knows what he's talking about. He wanted to know what state energy is used when it is expended or something. Used was a term I used to describe it; that's not what he said.

It's not expenditure and it's not exhilarating.

Exothermic? It's when a substance loses energy over a period of time. Endothermic is when something takes in energy.

(or at least heat, anyways, I'm just a sophomore chem student ;_;)

Totally the way I would have approached this.

Well, in the context of only looking at one system, expend can also mean expel, can't it? Dumb way of phrasing it though.

I'm guessing he was pissed about not being able to finish his crossword puzzle, since it had nothing to do with economics anyway.

No, seriously. It's exhaustion.

When you've "used" all your energy is a state of exhaustion. You've exhausted all energy, etc.

Actually, did he say AFTER you've "used" said energy, or during? If after, exhaustion. If during, exertion.

And if he's being dumb, expenditure.
