Thank you for not chewing gum
January 30th, 2015 Materials: Pencil, science notebook, Energy Transfers Today’s Agenda: Bell work How THERMAL ENERGY is transferred Learning Target: Today we will learn how THERMAL energy is transferred. Daily Question: What is Thermal Energy? Give three examples
2
First a Review
3
Identify the following forms of energy…
4
Mechanical
5
Gravitational (potential energy)
6
Electrical
7
Light (Radiant) Electromagnetic
8
Thermal
9
Sound
10
Chemical
11
Nuclear
12
1st Law of Thermodynamics
Also known as the Law of Energy Conservation… ENERGY CAN NEVER BE CREATED OR DESTROYED, ONLY STORED OR TRANSFERRED.
13
ENERGY Concept 3: Transfer of Energy
Understand that energy can be stored and transferred. PO 1. Identify various ways in which electrical energy is generated using renewable and nonrenewable resources (e.g., wind, dams, fossil fuels, nuclear reactions). PO 2. Identify several ways in which energy may be stored. PO 3. Compare the following ways in which energy may be transformed: • mechanical to electrical • electrical to thermal PO 4. Explain how thermal energy (heat energy) can be transferred by: • conduction • convection • radiation
14
Learning Goal: Students will be able to analyze ways in which our world uses renewable and nonrenewable energy resources and explain how energy is stored and transferred, giving specific, real-world examples of each. Score 4.0 In addition to a 3, I can explain the importance of energy conservation and give examples of what I can do in my own life to save energy. Score 3.0 I can analyze ways in which our world uses renewable and nonrenewable energy resources and explain how energy is stored and transferred, giving specific, real-world Score 2.0 I can analyze ways in which our world uses renewable and nonrenewable energy resources and explain how energy is stored and transferred. Score 1.0 With help from my peers or teacher, I can analyze ways in which our world uses renewable and nonrenewable energy resources and explain how energy Score 0.0 I do not understand renewable and nonrenewable energy resources or how energy is stored and transferred.

Lets take a short break And watch a Bill Nye clip

Transfer of Energy (E)
17
Energy Transfer Energy is transferred from hotter object to colder object Examples- Write down a couple Cooking pasta Making ice Making popcorn Roasting marshmallows
18
Conduction Transfer E as heat between particles in DIRECT CONTACT
Example Roasting marshmallow with wire Air molecules collide with wire Transfer energy to wire Particles in wire move faster, have more E E then transfers to hand, detect warmth
19
Conduction Stir your hot soup with a metal spoon
Soon you need a pot holder because the end of the spoon you are holding gets hot This is heat transfer by conduction Energy travels up the spoon from the end in the hot soup to the end in your hand
20
Conduction For example: a spoon in a cup of hot soup becomes warmer because the heat from the soup is conducted along the spoon. Fun fact: Have you ever noticed that metals tend to feel cold? Believe it or not, they are not colder! They only feel colder because they conduct heat away from your hand. You perceive the heat leaving your hand as cold.
21
Conduction Example Put your hand on the desk. Popcorn in a pot
How does it feel? Is it colder or is the heat transferring to your hand through CONDUCTION? Popcorn in a pot The heat is transferred by direct contact from the pan, to the oil, to the kernels of popcorn.
22
Conduction
23
Convection Energy transfer through movement of fluids at different temperatures (fluids - liquids and gases) Examples: Camp fire See soot, embers rise & swirl Rise upwards – warm air expands Why?
24
Convection Convection current – flow of fluid due to heated expansion followed by cooling and contraction Examples Wind current Boil water in pot
25
Convection You can hold your fingers beside the candle flame without harm, but not above the flame. Why?
26
Convection Examples Water…boiling Hot air popcorn What is happening?
The hot air transfers the heat to the cooler kernels, and when enough hot air heats the kernels they pop.
27
Convection
28
Convection- Draw an example
Explains why breezes come from the ocean in the day and from the land at night
