2 Energy: Forms and Changes

3 Nature of Energy  Energy is involved when: a bird flies. a bomb explodes. rain falls from the sky. electricity flows in a wire.

4 Nature of Energy Living organisms need energy for growth and movement.

5 Nature of Energy  What is energy that it can be involved in so many different activities? Energy is defined as the ability to do work. If an object or organism does work (exerts a force over a distance to move an object) the object or organism uses energy.

6 Nature of Energy  Energy and work are closely related. They are measured by a unit called a joule (J). (Pronounced like jewel)

7 States of Energy: Kinetic and Potential Energy  All forms of energy can be in either of two states: Kinetic or Potential  Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion.  Potential Energy is stored energy.

8 Kinetic Energy  The energy of motion is called kinetic energy.  The faster an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has.  The greater the mass of a moving object, the more kinetic energy it has.  Kinetic energy depends on both mass and velocity.

9 Kinetic Energy K.E. = mass x (velocity) 2 Which has a greater effect on the amount of kinetic energy – a) mass or b)velocity?

10 Potential Energy  Potential Energy is stored energy. Stored chemically in fuel, the nucleus of atom, and in foods. Or stored because of the work done on it:  Stretching a rubber band.  Winding a watch.  Pulling back on a bow’s arrow.  Lifting a brick high in the air.

11 Gravitational Potential Energy  Potential energy that is dependent on height is called gravitational potential energy.

12 Gravitational Potential Energy  A waterfall, a suspension bridge, and a falling snowflake all have gravitational potential energy.

13 Gravitational Potential Energy  If you stand on a 3-meter diving board, you have 3 times the G.P.E, than you had on a 1-meter diving board.

14 Gravitational Potential Energy  “The bigger they are the harder they fall” is not just a saying. It’s true. Objects with more mass have greater G.P.E.  The formula to find G.P.E. is G.P.E. = Weight X Height. *Remember that weight is a force measured in Newtons!

15 Mechanical Energy  When work is done to an object, it acquires energy. The energy it acquires is known as mechanical energy.  Mechanical Energy is the total energy of an object. It can be all potential energy, all kinetic energy or some of both.

16 Energy Conversion  Energy can be changed from one form to another. Changes in the form of energy are called energy conversions.

17 Kinetic-Potential Energy Conversions  As a basketball player throws the ball into the air, energy conversions take place.

18 Ball slows down Ball speeds up

19 Kinetic-Potential Energy Conversion Roller coasters work because of the energy that is built into the system. Initially, the cars are pulled mechanically up the tallest hill, giving them a great deal of potential energy. From that point, the conversion between potential and kinetic energy powers the cars throughout the entire ride.

20 Kinetic vs. Potential Energy At the point of maximum potential energy, the car has minimum kinetic energy.

21 Forms of Energy  The six main forms of energy are: Thermal (Heat) Chemical Electromagnetic Sound Light Nuclear

22 Heat (Thermal) Energy  Thermal energy is the kinetic energy from the motion of particles that make up all matter.  More motion (more heat), more energy. More particles, more energy  Heat energy causes changes in temperature and phase of matter. (like ice to water and water to steam)  http://www.absorblearning.com/medi a/attachment.action?quick=s6&att=2 018 http://www.absorblearning.com/medi a/attachment.action?quick=s6&att=2 018

23 Chemical Energy  Chemical energy is the energy of particles (atoms) stuck together or broken apart.  Chemical energy is a form of potential energy

24 Chemical Energy  Fuel and food are forms of stored chemical energy.

25 Electromagnetic Energy  Is the power of moving electrons.  Electrons are the negatively charged particles of atoms.

26 Electromagnetic Energy  Power lines carry electromagnetic energy into your home in the form of electricity.

27 Sound Energy  Is caused by vibrating objects  The object vibrates and makes air particles around it vibrate - transmitting energy and sound.

28 Light Energy  Light is a form of electromagnetic energy.  Each color of light (Roy G Bv) represents a different amount of electromagnetic energy.  Light does not make other particles vibrate and does not need air (it can travel through a vacuum like space).

29 Nuclear Energy  The nucleus of an atom is the source of nuclear energy.

30 Nuclear Energy  When the nucleus splits (fission), nuclear energy is released in the form of heat energy and light energy.  Nuclear energy is also released when nuclei collide at high speeds and join (fuse).

31 Nuclear Energy The sun’s energy is produced from a nuclear fusion reaction in which hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium nuclei.

32 Forms of Energy Form of EnergyDefinitionExampleKE or PE?

33 Energy conversions  All forms of energy can be converted into other forms. The sun’s energy can be converted directly into electricity through solar cells. Green plants convert the sun’s energy into starches and sugars (chemical energy).  The most common energy conversion is the conversion between potential and kinetic energy.

34 Other energy conversions In an electric motor, electromagnetic energy is converted to mechanical energy. In a battery, chemical energy is converted into electromagnetic energy. The mechanical energy of a waterfall is converted to electrical energy in a generator.

35 Energy Conversions  In an automobile engine, fuel is burned to convert chemical energy into heat energy. The heat energy is then changed into mechanical energy.

36 Chemical  Heat  Mechanical

37 The Law of Conservation of Energy  Energy can be neither created nor destroyed by ordinary means. It can only be converted from one form to another. If energy seems to disappear, then scientists look for it – leading to many important discoveries.

38 Law of Conservation of Energy  In 1905, Albert Einstein said that mass and energy can be converted into each other.  He showed that if matter is destroyed, energy is created, and if energy is destroyed mass is created. 2  E = MC

39 Vocabulary Words energy mechanical energy heat energy chemical energy electromagnetic energy nuclear energy kinetic energy potential energy gravitational potential energy energy conversion Law of Conservation of Energy
