ENERGY 9 9 Electrical energy can be generated by batteries and sound energy is produced when something makes a noise Electrical energy can be generated by batteries and sound energy is produced when something makes a noise
12
ENERGY 10 Chemical energy is stored in foods and fuels, while strain energy is built up when something is stretched Chemical energy is stored in foods and fuels, while strain energy is built up when something is stretched

POWER 11
14
POWER 12 “Power” is the rate at which work is being done, i.e. work done per second “Power” is the rate at which work is being done, i.e. work done per second
15
POWER 13 “Power” is the rate at which work is being done, i.e. work done per second “Power” is the rate at which work is being done, i.e. work done per second If the rate of work = 1 J/s this is 1 Watt of power If the rate of work = 1 J/s this is 1 Watt of power
16
POWER 14 Power is not the same as force - it is to do with how much energy is transferred in a given period of time Power is not the same as force - it is to do with how much energy is transferred in a given period of time

SOURCES OF ENERGY 15
18
SOURCES OF ENERGY 16 One source of energy is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) One source of energy is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas)

SOURCES OF ENERGY 18 Nuclear energy would last a long time and is relatively clean, except that nuclear waste needs to be stored and is very dangerous Nuclear energy would last a long time and is relatively clean, except that nuclear waste needs to be stored and is very dangerous
21
SOURCES OF ENERGY 19 Hydro-electric, tidal and wind energy is both renewable and clean Hydro-electric, tidal and wind energy is both renewable and clean
22
SOURCES OF ENERGY 20 Solar power can provide both heating and electricity and is renewable and clean, while in some countries geothermal energy is found Solar power can provide both heating and electricity and is renewable and clean, while in some countries geothermal energy is found
