How Is Energy Related to Work? Interest Grabber Section 15.1 How Is Energy Related to Work? Energy is defined as the ability to do work. Recall that work is the product of force and distance. If a force acts through a greater distance, it has done more work. You can use work to measure changes in energy. Place two identical books on a table so there is a gap of about 8 cm between the books. Place a sheet of notebook paper on the books so it covers the gap as shown. Now drop a penny from a height of 10 cm onto the paper above the gap. Note what happens. Next, drop the penny from a height of 30 cm and observe the results. 1. How did the height of the penny affect the distance the paper moved? 2. How did lifting the penny affect the work it did on the paper? 3. How did lifting the penny affect its energy?

Energy is the ability to do work Energy is the ability to do work. Therefore, work is a transfer of energy. Both work and energy are typically measured in Joules. 1 Joule = 1 Newton – Meter. The work done when one Newton of force moves and object one meter.

Two Types of Energy Kinetic Energy Potential Energy Energy of Motion Depends upon a moving object’s mass and speed Kinetic Energy= ½ mv2 Stored energy as a result of position or shape: Gravitational – depends on object’s height, mass and acceleration due to gravity Elastic- can be stored in objects that are compressed

“The higher you climb, the harder you can fall.” Gravitational Potential Energy =Potential Energy (PE) = mgh mass (kg), g(9.8m/s2), h(m)= Joules “The higher you climb, the harder you can fall.”

How Can Energy Change Forms? Interest Grabber Section 15.2 How Can Energy Change Forms? Have you even seen a Rube Goldberg device? Goldberg was an award-winning cartoonist who drew complex series of devices that performed relatively simple acts. The devices were arranged so that the output of one device would act as the input of the next. Goldberg became so well known for his drawings that people all over the world hold contests to see who can build the most complicated device. Study the Rube Goldberg cartoon below and answer the questions. 1. List at least three kinds of energy in the device. 2. Describe one change, in which energy from one form is converted into energy of another form.

Relating Cause and Effect Reading Strategy Section 15.2 Relating Cause and Effect a. The gull drops the oyster, and the oyster’s gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the oyster falls. (Air resistance can be ignored.) b. The oyster strikes a rock and breaks, kinetic energy is converted into work (breaking the shell) and thermal energy. The kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the oyster are now zero.

Interest Grabber Using Wind and Water Section 15.3 Using Wind and Water Wind and water are two useful sources of energy found in nature. You can demonstrate how these energy sources are converted into kinetic energy by making a model of a windmill or a water wheel. Tape a pencil to an index card. Hold the pencil loosely at both ends. Blow onto one side of the index card and observe what happens. Next, hold the index card above a bucket. Have a classmate pour water from a pitcher onto one side of the index card. 1. What happened when you blew into the card? What happened when you held the card under running water? 2. How do you think people used the kinetic energy of a water wheel or a windmill to grind corn or other kinds of grain?

Identifying Main Ideas Reading Strategy Section 15.3 Identifying Main Ideas a. Nonrenewable energy resources include oil, natural gas and coal. They exist in limited quantities. b. Renewable energy resources include hydroelectric, solar, geothermal, wind, biomass, and nuclear fusion. c. Energy resources can be conserved by reducing energy needs and by increasing the efficiency of energy use.

Interest Grabber Answers Section 15.1 1. How did the height of the penny affect the distance the paper moved? The paper moved farther when the penny was dropped from a greater height. 2. How did lifting the penny affect the work it did on the paper? Lifting the penny allowed it to do more work on the paper. 3. How did lifting the penny affect its energy? Lifting the penny increased the penny’s energy.

Interest Grabber Answers Section 15.2 1. List at least three kinds of energy in the device. There is kinetic energy, chemical energy, and gravitational potential energy. 2. Describe one change, in which energy from one form is converted into energy of another form. The chemical energy of the cannon is converted into the kinetic energy of the peanut.

Interest Grabber Answers Section 15.3 1. What happened when you blew into the card? What happened when you held the card under running water? The moving air and water caused the card and pencil to rotate. 2. How do you think people used the kinetic energy of a water wheel or a windmill to grind corn or other kinds of grain? Answers will vary. Sample possible answer: The kinetic energy of the windmill or water wheel probably turned gears, which cause a millstone to turn.
