What are two types of energy?
• Energy is the ability to cause change.
• Energy takes many different forms and causes
many different effects.
• There are two general
types of energy:
• kinetic energy
• potential energy

Unit 2 Lesson 1 Introduction to Energy

What are two types of energy?
• Kinetic energy is the mechanical energy of an object that is
due to motion. All moving objects have kinetic energy.
• The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on its mass
and speed (Velocity).
• Kinetic energy increases as mass increases and as velocity
(speed) increases.
Unit 2 Lesson 1 Introduction to Energy

What are two types of energy?
• Potential energy is the mechanical energy that an object
has due to its position, condition, or chemical composition.
• Potential energy that is the result of an object’s position is
called gravitational potential energy.
• Gravitational potential energy increases as the object’s
height or mass increases.

What are two types of energy?
• Potential energy is the mechanical energy that an object
has due to its position, condition, or chemical composition.
• Potential energy that is the result of an object’s condition
is called elastic potential energy.
• A change in the condition of an object affects its
potential energy.
• Stretching a rubber band increases its potential
energy

What are two types of energy?
• Potential energy is the mechanical energy that an object
has due to its position, condition, or chemical composition.
• Potential energy that is the result of an object’s chemical
composition is called chemical potential energy.
• Chemical potential energy depends on chemical
composition.
• As bonds break and new bonds form between atoms
during a chemical change, energy can be released.
Fuels such as charcoal are hydrocarbons, chemical
compounds made mainly from hydrogen and carbon.
When a fuel burns in air, the hydrocarbons break up
into simpler compounds. The chemical potential energy
they contain is then released as heat energy. Light
energy is produced at the same time and this is what
makes a fire glow as it burns

Can objects have potential and kinetic energy
at the same time?
• An object can have both potential and kinetic energy at
the same time.

7) Analyze: Do you think that the skater has any
GPE at pt C (3)? Explain
• No, because he is at the bottom of the ramp.
• Gravity cannot pull him any lower, so he has no GPE

In Perfect Form
What forms can energy take?
• Kinetic energy and potential energy are two
types of energy that can come in many
different forms.
• mechanical, sound, electromagnetic,
electrical, chemical, thermal, and
nuclear energy.
• Energy is expressed in joules (J).

9) How does electrical energy differ
from electromagnetic energy?
Electromagnetic energy is caused by vibration of
electrically charged particles. Transmitted by waves
Electrical energy is caused by the position or motion of
electrically charged particles.
10) Would you expect to detect electrical
energy if you played the pinball game?
Explain
The pinball machine is powered by electrical energy as
inferred by the lights, sounds (rings where the ball hits
the bumper) and motion of the flippers.

12) Why is the chemical energy of a battery
potential energy and not kinetic energy?
The energy in the chemicals is stored energy. The battery
must be placed into a completed electrical circuit for the
energy to create an electric current.

What is an energy transformation?
• An energy
transformation takes
place when energy
changes from one form
into another form.
• Any form of energy can
change into any other
form of energy.
• Often, one form of energy
changes into more than
one form.
Unit 2 Lesson 1 Introduction to Energy
Pg 108-109
What is an energy transformation?
• In a flashlight, chemical energy (battery) is
transformed into electrical energy.
• The electrical energy is then transformed into light
and thermal energy.
Unit 2 Lesson 1 Introduction to Energy
Pg 108-109
Is energy conserved?
• A closed system is a group of objects that transfer
energy only to one another. Energy is conserved in all
closed systems.
• The law of conservation of energy states that energy
cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change
forms.
• All of the different forms of energy in a closed system
always add up to the same total amount of energy.
17) Relate
The law of conservations of energy states energy is not
created not destroyed: it can only change forms. An
energy transformation is a change from one form of
energy to another.

mechanical energy to thermal energy & sound energy.

Energy Transformations when you bounce a ball?
1) As the ball falls, gravitational potential energy is transformed to kinetic
energy.
2) While the ball is in contact with the floor, kinetic energy transforms into elastic
potential energy and then back to kinetic energy.
3) As the ball travels upward, kinetic energy is transformed to potential energy.
4) The ball does not return to original height because some K.E. is transformed
to Thermal energy or Sound during a bounce.

Space Weather and Technology
• Space weather includes any activity happening in
space that might affect Earth’s environment.
• Space weather can damage satellites and
interrupt phone signals and signals to Global
Positioning System (GPS) receivers.
• Auroras are caused by electrically charged
particles of solar winds hitting Earth’s magnetic
field. They can interrupt airplane communications.
