The Law of Conservation of Energy The law of conservation of energy -energy cannot be created or destroyed it can be transferred or transformed from one form to another Same amount of energy before and after energy is transformed or transferred

Transferring energy Transferring energy- Energy moving from one place to another Example: The club hits the golf ball, energy is transferred from the club to the ball making it move

Transferring energy

Transforming energy Energy transformation- energy changing from one form to another All forms of energy can be transformed lets us use energy in different ways Example: Green plants transform electromagnetic (sunlight) energy into chemical energy (food). A fan changes mechanical energy into mechanical

Energy transformation

Energy Whenever energy is transferred or transformed, some energy is moves into the environment, usually as heat
