Energy is everywhere in many different forms. There are 8 types of energy that require movement:
3
Types of kinetic (moving) energy: 1. Sound energy 2.Solar energy 3. Mechanical energy 4. Wind energy 5. Electric energy 6. Light energy 7. Hydro energy *All of these require movement!! 8. Geothermal energy
4
Energy that an object would have if it was in motion. (stored energy) Possible energy of an object due to its size and position. vs. One of these has more potential energy…
5
Which one has more potential energy? These could possibly fall and hurt someone! Books on top shelf… Or books on bottom shelf? These books are higher and can fall farther!
6
A guy sitting up here… Or a guy sitting at the bottom of the mountain Which one has more potential energy? Stop here!!
7
Let’s review some different types of alternative energy. Alternative energy – clean energy that doesn’t pollute and can be turned into electricity
8
Solar Energy --energy from the sun
9
Stop lights Bus lights Stop sign lights Floating ball for pool Key chains!
10
Lots of solar panels – enough for a small town!
11
Using solar energy to make a radio work. Camp is so cool!
12
Hydro Energy Energy from moving water
13
How hydro energy works Spinning motion
14
Hoover Dam
15
Inside Hoover Dam
16
Windmills Energy from wind
17
How windmills work Spinning motion
18
Geothermal Energy Energy from magma’s extreme heat (steam)
20
