Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
Get Energized!
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 and potential energy.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What are two types of energy?
• Kinetic energy is the 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.
• Kinetic energy increases as mass increases and as
speed increases.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What are two types of energy?
• Potential energy is the 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.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What are two types of energy?
• A change in the condition of an object affects its
potential energy. Stretching a rubber band
increases its 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.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
Can objects have potential and kinetic
energy at the same time?
• An object can have both potential and kinetic
energy at the same time.
• A skater has kinetic energy as he moves down a
ramp and potential energy due to his position on
the ramp.

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.
• Some common forms of energy include
mechanical, sound, electromagnetic, electrical,
chemical, thermal, and nuclear energy.
• Energy is expressed in joules (J).

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What forms can energy take?
• Mechanical energy is the sum of an object’s
kinetic energy and potential energy. It is the
energy of position and motion.
• Sound energy is kinetic energy caused by the
vibration of particles in a medium such as steel,
water, or air.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What forms can energy take?
• Electromagnetic energy is transmitted through
space in the form of electromagnetic waves.
• These waves are caused by the vibration of
electrically charged particles.
• Electromagnetic waves include visible light, Xrays, and microwaves.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What forms can energy take?
• Electrical energy is the energy that results from
the position or motion of charged particles.
• Chemical energy is a form of potential energy.
• The amount of chemical energy in a molecule
depends on the kinds of atoms and their
arrangement.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What forms can energy take?
• The thermal energy of an object is the kinetic
energy of its particles.
• The faster the molecules in an object move, and
the more particles the object has, the more
thermal energy it has.
• Heat is the energy transferred from an object at a
higher temperature to an object at a lower
temperature.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What forms can energy take?
• The nucleus of an atom is the source of nuclear
energy.
• When an atom’s nucleus breaks apart, or when
the nuclei of two small atoms join together,
energy is released.

What forms can energy take?
• What forms of energy can you identify in this
pinball game?

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.

Transformers
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.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
What is an energy transformation?
• In a flashlight, chemical energy is transformed
into electrical energy.
• The electrical energy is then transformed into light
and thermal energy.

Chapter 9 Energy and Energy Resources
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.
