  1. ENERGY Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change forms.

  2. What is Energy? Energy is the capacity of a system to do WORK Energy exists in several forms, such as: • heat (thermal) • mechanical • kinetic / potential • light • electrical • chemical Where does the energy come from that powers this ipod?

  3. Think of energy as money Money can exist in different forms:  cash, change, numbers in a bank account, silver....  It takes energy (money) to perform different acts. The energy is transferred around in the system Coal -- Electricity -- Powers TV -- Heat

  4. KINETIC ENERGY = the energy a moving object has because of its motion;  it depends on the object's mass and speed.   MEASURED IN JOULES KE (joules) = 1/2 mass (kg) x speed (m/s)2 KE =  (.5) mv2 So....... The kinetic energy will increase if ___  velocity increases ? ___  mass increases? ___  height increases?

  5. Practice Problems 1.  A jogger with a mass of 60 kg is moving at 2 m/s.  What is the jogger's kinetic energy? 2.  A ball with a mass of 2 kg is moving at a speed of 3 m/s.  What is the balls kinetic energy? 3.  A object has a mass of 2 kg and a kinetic energy of 25 J.  What is the object's speed?  

  6. POTENTIAL ENERGY = energy stored within a motionless object Elastic Potential Energy = energy stored by something that can stretch (spring or rubber band) Chemical Potential Energy = energy stored within chemical bonds.

  7. ELASTIC POTENTIAL ENERGY

  8. Gravitational Potential Energy = anything that can fall GPE (Joules) =  mass (kg)          x  acceleration of gravity (9.8 m/s2)         x height (m) GPE = mgh

  10. GPE = mgh 1.  What is the GPE of a book that has a mass of 1kg that is sitting on a shelf that is 2 m above the ground? 2.  How high above the ground is a ball with a mass of 2 kg that has a GPE of 70 J? 3.  A rock climber is 200 m above the ground and has a GPE of 10,000 J.  What is the climber's mass?

  11. Think about it.... Can an object have kinetic energy and potential energy at the same time? Two objects are sitting on a table.  One has a mass of 5kg, the other has a mass of 2 kg.  Which one has a greater GPE? How could you increase the kinetic energy of a truck without increasing its speed?  

  12. Energy can be converted from one form to another Light bulbs transform electrical energy into light energy Light bulbs feel warm because some of the energy is transformed into thermal energy Chemical energy stored in gasoline is converted to kinetic (movement) energy  and thermal (heat) energy.    Plants convert light energy into chemical energy (photosynthesis)

  14.  Mechanical Energy = Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy  Mechanical Energy is the energy due to position and motion Potential energy can be transformed into mechanical energy....imagine a kid at the top of a slide... he has potential energy at the top.  As he moves, he has kinetic and potential energy. 

  15. Low KE High GPE High KE Low GPE High KE Low GPE Energy transformations occur with projectile motion

  16. 1.  At what time was the rock's kinetic energy the greatest?  ___ 2.  How much kinetic energy did the rock have at 3 s ? ____ 3.  What was the rock's potential energy before it fell?  ____ 

  17. Law of Conservation of Energy = energy can change from one form to another, the total amount of energy never changes.  * simply,  energy cannot be created or destroyed. davinci's perpetual motion machine,  arthur's clipart

  18. Roller coasters are designed with the Law of Conservation of Energy in Mind. How Stuff Works, Rollercoasters  -  read article & watch animation

  19. 1.  Write a quick summary, what is the article about.  A summary should be a complete sentence. 2.  Write down 3-5 words that you are not sure you know the meaning of (from the article) 3.  Make a prediction about what you think the next section will be about.

  21. Friction and Air resistance In almost all machines and activities some energy is converted to HEAT due to the affects of friction and air resistance.   When you slide down a slide you will eventually come to a stop, and you might even feel the seat of your pants warming up. The more EFFICIENT your system runs, the smaller the amount of energy is converted to heat.  New light bulbs don't get as hot and do not use as much energy. 

  22. Energy and Food Energy is converted in your body to allow you to be active and perform metabolic processes (breathing, heart rate, digestion..etc) The energy comes from food - measured in calories 1 calorie = 4,184 joules You would need to jog for about 1 hour to burn off all the calories in a snickers bar

  23. Kinesiology Kinesiology is the study of the mechanics and movement of human bodies. An undergraduate degree in kinesiology can lead to careers in the fields of exercise science, personal training, sports training and rehabilitation. Bachelor of Science in KinesiologyKinesiology is often offered as a small portion of a larger degree program in sports medicine, physical therapy or a similar area. However, there are a few universities offering 4-year degree programs that focus specifically on kinesiology, or the study of human movement. Such a program can lead to a fruitful career in the rehabilitative sciences, or can act as a precursor to graduate studies in physical therapy, occupational therapy and sports medicine.
