1  APRIL 7, 2016 Objective: I CAN.. Analyze Various Types of energy transformation.

2 THINK ABOUT IT?  How does energy travel through a food web?

3 OBSERVE THIS PICTURE

4 ENERGY CONVERSIONS IN PLANTS  Did you know that the chemical energy in the food you eat comes from the sun's energy? When you eat fruits, vegetables, or grains, you are taking in chemical energy. This energy comes from a chemical change that was made possible by the sun's energy. When you eat meat from animals that ate plants, you are also taking in energy that first came from the sun.  Photosynthesis uses light energy to make new substances that have chemical energy. In this way, light energy is changed into chemical energy. The chemical energy from a tree can be changed into thermal energy when you burn the tree's wood. So, if you follow the conversion of energy back far enough, the energy from a wood fire actually comes from the sun!

5 THE PROCESS CONTINUES  Let's trace where the energy goes. Plants change light energy into chemical energy. The chemical energy in the food you eat is changed into another kind of chemical energy that your body can use. Your body then uses that energy to give you the kinetic energy that you use in everything you do.  It's an endless process—energy is always going somewhere!

6 ENERGY CONVERSIONS  An energy conversion is a change from one form of energy to another.  Any form of energy can change into any other form of energy. Often, one form of energy changes into more than one other form.

7 Observe this picture.

8 FIGURE 1 EXPLAINED  At the instant this picture was taken, the skateboarder on the left side of the picture was hardly moving.  How did he get up so high in the air? As you might guess, he was moving at a high speed on his way up the half-pipe. So, he had a lot of kinetic energy. What happened to that energy?  His kinetic energy changed to gravitational potential energy. Imagine that the picture below is a freeze-frame of a video. What happens once the video starts running again? The skateboarder's potential energy will become kinetic energy once again as he speeds down the side of the half-pipe.

9 KINETIC ENERGY (KE)  energy of motion  depends on mass and velocity  Formula: KE = ½ mv 2  increases as mass or velocity increases and decreases as mass or velocity decreases Which soccer ball has more kinetic energy? Explain your reasoning. 2 m/s3 m/s 0.45 kg What is the difference between speed and velocity?

10 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PE AND KE PE KE What is happening to the PE and KE as the soccer ball falls to the feet of the mid-fielder? What about the PE/KE graph could be considered misleading?

11 OBSERVE THIS PICTURE

12 ELASTIC POTENTIAL ENERGY  The energy you put into stretching the rubber band becomes elastic potential energy. When you let the rubber band go, it goes back to its original shape. It releases its stored-up potential energy as it does so, as you know if you have ever snapped a rubber band against your skin!  Several other conversions are also taking place as the rubber band unwinds. There is the sound energy of the rubber band and the propeller as they turn. There is increased thermal energy of the particles of the rubber band. There is also increased kinetic energy of air particles as the propeller pushes on them.

13 SOUND ENERGY  an example of mechanical energy that results from the vibration of particles in a solid, liquid, or gas  can be impacted by temperature and pressure  must have a medium (usually air) to travel through - cannot travel through empty space  sound in a vacuum sound in a vacuum This person is listening to someone telling a secret. How are the sound waves being generated?

14 CONVERSIONS INVOLVING CHEMICAL ENERGY  You may have heard someone say, "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day." Why is eating breakfast so important?  Chemical energy comes from the food you eat. Your body uses chemical energy to function. Eating breakfast gives your body the energy needed to help you start the day.  Chemical energy of food is converted into kinetic energy when you are active. It is converted into thermal energy to maintain body temperature

15 WHY ENERGY CONVERSIONS ARE IMPORTANT?  Energy conversions are needed for everything we do. Heating our homes, getting energy from a meal, and many other things use energy conversions.  Machines help convert energy and make that energy work for you. Electrical energy by itself won't dry your hair. But you can use a hair dryer to convert electrical energy into the thermal energy that helps you dry your hair.

16

17 CONVERSIONS INVOLVING ELECTRICAL ENERGY?  Electrical energy can easily be changed into other forms of energy.

18 ENERGY AND MACHINES  A machine can make work easier by changing the size or direction (or both) of the force needed to do the work.

19

20 MACHINES AS ENERGY CONVERTERS  Machines help you use energy by converting it into the form that you need.

21 ENERGY CONVERSIONS  a change from one form of energy into another  energy can be converted into any other form and is often converted into more than one form  most of the wasted or unwanted energy in a conversion is attributed to heat (friction)  Example  Electromagnetic energy (in the form of light) from the Sun is converted, by plants, into chemical energy in the form of glucose What is an example of an energy conversion you have experienced in your own life? Light Energy CO 2 H2OH2O H2OH2O H2OH2O H2OH2O H2OH2O H2OH2O O2O2 O2O2 O2O2 O2O2 O2O2 O2O2 C 6 H 12 O 6 6CO 2 + H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 light energy

22 TCAP COMPREHENSION CHECK

23 POTENTIAL ENERGY (PE)  stored energy that an object has due to its position or chemical composition  Types:  Gravitational – results from vertical position or height  Formula: PE = mgh  Elastic – results from stretching or compressing Which soccer ball has more gravitational potential energy? Explain your reasoning. The types listed are not all-inclusive 0.45 kg

24 IDENTIFY THE ENERGY CONVERSIONS The apparatus to the right was placed into a bell jar. What energy conversions take place when it is operating? 1. Chemical energy (in the battery) 2. Electromagnetic Energy (electricity moving through the wires) 3. Sound Energy (noise coming from the buzzer) Battery Wires Buzzer

25 PUTTING IT TOGETHER  Draw and label these four examples of energy conversions.
