Energy
 Can
be defined as the capacity
to do work, i.e. moving an object
by applying force to mass over a
distance
 Chemical energy is defined as
heat.
 Name five other types of Energy.
Two Types of Energy

Potential: due to an object’s position
or material’s composition - which can be
converted to work

Kinetic: due to motion of an object
= 1/2 mv2
 (m = mass, v = velocity)
 KE

Law of Conservation
of Energy

Different forms of energy can be
inter-converted but can neither be
created nor destroyed.
 (Euniverse
 Describe
is constant)
three inter-conversions of
energy.
First of Three Laws of
Thermodynamics

First Law of Thermodynamics:
The energy of the universe is
constant or “energy is conserved”.
What is a greenhouse gas?
The sun’s energy & the molecule’s shape decide.
•Our atmosphere (air) is 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen.
•Neither are greenhouse gases. They do not absorb infrared radiation (heat).
•However, H2O and CO2 can absorb infrared energy. Without them earth would
be very chilly.

What do the sun’s energy, a molecule’s shape and a
TV remote have to do with greenhouse gases?
