4 Lesson 2 - Now 1.In most systems, no energy is transferred to the environment. 2. Some forms of energy are replenished naturally. Do you agree or disagree? What do you think?

5 Lesson 2-1 The law of conservation of energy says that energy can be transformed from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed.law of conservation of energy In every energy transformation, some energy transfers to the environment. Law of Conservation of Energy

6 Lesson 2-1 The law of conservation of energy indicates that the amount of radiant energy that shines out of the flashlight cannot be greater than the chemical energy stored in the battery.

7 Lesson 2-1 When energy moves from one object to another without changing form, an energy transfer occurs. energy transfer The mechanical energy of a tennis racket changing the movement of the ball is an example of an energy transfer. Come up with your own example of an energy transfer with your partners Law of Conservation of Energy (cont.)

8 Lesson 2-1 When one form of energy is converted to another form of energy, an energy transformation occurs.energy transformation The conversion of chemical energy stored in a tennis player’s muscle changing to mechanical energy when she swings her arm is an example of an energy transformation. Come up with your own example of an energy transformation with your partners. Law of Conservation of Energy (cont.)

9 Lesson 2-1 Law of Conservation of Energy (cont.) Identify an energy transfer and an energy transformation that occurs when someone plays a guitar.

10 Lesson 2-1 Law of Conservation of Energy (cont.) Identify an energy transfer and an energy transformation that occurs when someone plays a guitar. Answer: Chemical energy in the cells is transformed to mechanical energy in the fingers, then transferred to the guitar strings. Electric energy from the amp is converted into sound energy when the chords are struck.

11 Lesson 2-1 Any time there is an energy transformation or energy transfer, some energy is transformed into thermal energy. Energy transformations are inefficient because not all the energy that is transformed to another form of energy is usable. Law of Conservation of Energy (cont.)

12 Lets go back to the flashlight. In a flashlight the transformation of chemical energy from the battery to radiant energy from the light bulb is inefficient. As the electric energy move through the circuit, some electric energy transforms to thermal energy. This makes the transformation inefficient, and this is why some bulbs are warm. Explain the above transformation and why its inefficient.

13 Lesson 2-2 A renewable energy resource is an energy resource that is replaced as fast as, or faster than, it is used.renewable energy resource Solar energy from the Sun is one type of renewable energy resource that can be converted into electric energy. Energy Transformations and Electric Energy

14 Lesson 2-2 Wind moves the blades of a wind turbine to generate electric energy. In hydroelectric plants, falling water is channeled through a turbine which transforms mechanical energy into electric energy. Energy Transformations and Electric Energy (cont.)

15 Lesson 2-2 Geothermal plants transfer thermal energy from the Earth to water, creating steam that turns turbines in electric generators. Biomass includes wood, plants, manure, and garbage, all of which are sources of stored chemical energy that can be transformed to electric energy in energy plants. Energy Transformations and Electric Energy (cont.)

16 Lesson 2-2 Nonrenewable energy resources are energy resources that are available in limited amounts or that are used faster than they can be replaced in nature.Nonrenewable energy resources Fossil fuels include petroleum, natural gas, propane and coal. In nuclear energy plants, uranium atoms are split apart in a process called nuclear fission. Energy Transformations and Electric Energy (cont.)

17 Lesson 2-2 Most of the energy used in the United States comes from nonrenewable energy resources.

18 Lesson 2-2 Energy Transformations and Electric Energy (cont.) What are renewable and nonrenewable energy resources?

19 Lesson 2-2 Energy Transformations and Electric Energy (cont.) What are renewable and nonrenewable energy resources? Renewable: energy resource that is replaced as fast or fast than it is used Nonrenewable: energy resource that is available in limited amounts or is used faster than can be replaced in nature

20 Lesson 2 - VS Energy can be transferred and transformed, but it cannot be created or destroyed. Energy resources are classified as renewable or nonrenewable based on their abundance and availability.

21 Lesson 2 – LR1 A.conservation B.work C.closed system D.open system Which term refers to the transfer of energy that occurs when a force makes an object move in the direction of the force?

22 Lesson 2 – LR3 A.open system B.solar energy C.nonrenewable energy resource D.renewable energy resource Which is an example of biomass?

23 Lesson 2 - Now 1.In most systems, no energy is transferred to the environment. 2. Some forms of energy are replenished naturally. Do you agree or disagree?
