2 Forms of Energy

3 WHAT IS ENERGY?

4 ENERGY:The ability to do work or cause change. POTENTIAL ENERGY:Stored Energy KINETIC ENERGY:Moving Energy LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY: Energy cannot be created or destroyed.

5 Forms of Energy Mechanical Thermal Chemical Electrical Electromagnetic Nuclear Energy can be transferred, or converted, from one form to another!

6 Mechanical Energy Energy associated with the motion of an object and its position. Chewing Sound Frog Dancing

7 Thermal Energy Heat! Hotter = molecules moving faster. All objects give off thermal energy Ice cream melting gains thermal energy

8 Chemical Energy energy stored in chemical bonds. Food Fire Cracker Stomach Battery

9 Electrical Energy Moving electrons that produce electricity and energy. Static Shock Lightening Computers/TVs/ Radios Lights

10 Light Energy Energy that travels in light waves (electromagnetic) Visible light UV Rays Microwaves

11 Nuclear Energy Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom Sun Stars Nuclear Power Plant

12 Sound Energy Energy traveling in the course of compression waves through a medium music singing

13 Potential Energy Stored Energy Top of Hills Top of Roller coasters Pendulum

14 Kinetic Energy Energy of an object due to its motion Arrows Hockey Puck Bowling Ball

15 QUIZ TIME! What type of energy cooks food in a microwave oven? ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY What type of energy is the spinning plate inside of a microwave oven? MECHANICAL ENERGY

16 QUIZ TIME! Electrical energy is transported to your house through power lines. When you plug an electric fan to a power outlet, electrical energy is transform into what type of energy? MECHANICAL ENERGY

17 QUIZ TIME! What energy transformation occurs when an electric lamp is turned on? ELECTRICAL ENERGY  ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY

18 What types of energy are shown below? Mechanical and Thermal Energy (Don ’ t forget friction)

19 What type of energy is shown below? Chemical Energy

20 What types of energy are shown below? Electrical, Mechanical and Electromagnetic Energy

21 What type of energy is shown below? Chemical Energy (yummy)

22 What type of energy is shown below? Thermal Energy

23 Draw a flow map showing the flow of energy transformations in a car from starting vehicle to driving. You should have 5 different types of energy.

24 Energy Transfer Chemical Electrical Sound (mechanical) Light (Electromagnetic) Thermal Mechanical

25 TYPES OF ENERGY Mechanical, Electromagnetic, Electrical, Chemical and Thermal

26 What is Mechanical Energy? o Energy due to a object ’ s motion (kinetic) or position (potential). The bowling ball has mechanical energy. When the ball strikes the pins, mechanical energy is transferred to the pins!

27 Examples of Mechanical Energy

28 What is Electromagnetic Energy? o Light energy o Includes energy from gamma rays, xrays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared rays, microwave and radio bands

29 What is Electrical Energy? o Energy caused by the movement of electrons o Easily transported through power lines and converted into other forms of energy

30 What is Chemical Energy? o Energy that is available for release from chemical reactions. The chemical bonds in a matchstick store energy that is transformed into thermal energy when the match is struck.

31 Examples of Chemical Energy

32 What is Thermal Energy? o Heat energy o The heat energy of an object determines how active its atoms are. A hot object is one whose atoms and molecules are excited and show rapid movement. A cooler object's molecules and atoms will show less movement.
