Welcome to the world of energy! DO YOU HAVE ANY TODAY????? Topics to Be Covered What is energy? What kinds of energy are there? Law of conservation of energy Power Machines Sources of energy What is energy? Energy is the ability to do work. Work = Force times distance What is energy? If something is moving it has energy We call the energy of motion kinetic energy Objects can have energy even if they are not moving. An example is potential energy due to gravity. potential energy There are several types of potential energy gravitational Elastic chemical potential energy AN OBJECT THAT IS MOVING HAS KINETIC ENERGY BUT CAN ALSO HAVE potential energy What kinds of energy are there? Mechanical (potential, kinetic) electrical thermal light sound nuclear chemical Law of conservation of energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It changes from one form to another but the total energy never changes.. An example of this is when you rub your hands together (mechanical energy) and you feel heat (thermal energy). It actually starts with chemical energy from your body. Power The rate at which energy is changed (or work is done) is called power. If something is very powerful, it can do work quickly. Example: race car Powerful formula Power = work time Power Machines Devices for multiplying forces or changing the direction of forces. Effects of machines Machines can make the work easier to do. Sources of energy Sun (solar, wind, water) Fossil fuels (from sun) Nuclear Geothermal Work-Energy Theorem Work-Energy Theorem Change in Potential energy = change in kinetic energy = work done Summary Energy is the ability to do work The two forms of mechanical energy are potential and kinetic energy Summary Work is force X distance Machines make work easier by reducing force. Power is work/time Cool energy transformations!
