Warm - up • Define energy • Provide me with 2 examples of natural resources from the video and tell how you think energy can be transferred from them • Btw…happy new year!
What is energy? • Energy is the ability to do work. • A Natural Resource – is any energy source, organism, or substance found in nature that people use.
Law of Conservation of Energy • Energy cannot be created or destroyed. However energy can change forms and be transferred from one object to another
Renewable vs. Nonrenewable Resources • A renewable resource - is a natural resources that replaces itself in nature faster then we use it • A nonrenewable resource – is a resource that has a fixed amount that is used faster then it’s replaced
Types of Renewable Resources • Sunlight (solar) • Common Uses: power of solar cells and batteries, heating of homes/businesses, and generating electricity
Types of Renewable Resources • Wind (air) • Uses: power to move windmills that pump water, grind grain, and generate electricity
Types of Renewable Resources • Hydropower (Water) • Uses: power to generate electricity, transportation with boats and ships, drinking and washing
Types of Renewable Resources • Biomass (trees and other plants) • Uses: materials for furniture, clothing, dyes, medicines, paper, cardboard, and generating electricity
Types of Nonrenewable Resources • coal • Uses: fuel to generate electricity, chemicals for medicines, and consumer products
Types of Nonrenewable Resources • Oil • Uses: fuel for cars, airplanes, trucks; fuel for heating and generating electricity; chemicals for plastics, synthetic fabrics, medicines, grease, wax
Types of nonrenewable Resources • Natural Gases • Uses: fuel for heating, cooking and generating electricity
There are two states of energy or types of energy . • Potential and kinetic.
Potential • Potential is stored energy
Kinetic • Kinetic is the energy of motion.
There are five main forms of energy. • Chemical • Mechanical • Electromagnetic • Heat (thermal) • Nuclear
Chemical Energy • Energy that is available for release from chemical reactions.
Mechanical Energy • Energy due to a object’s motion (kinetic) or position (potential).
Electromagnetic • Light energy • Includes energy from gamma rays, xrays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared rays, microwave and radio bands • Moving electric charges
Heat or Thermal • Internal motion of atoms. • The heat energy of an object determines how active its atoms are.
Nuclear • Nuclear energy is the energy stored in the nucleus of an atom and can be broken into: • fusion (energy of the sun which is the combing of two or more nuclei) and • fission(the splitting of an atom like in a nuclear reactor).

There are three types of (energy) heat transfer. • Convection • Conduction • Radiation
Convection • Convection is the transfer of heat energy in a gas or liquid by movement of currents due to changes in density.
Conduction • is the transfer of energy through matter from particle to particle.
Radiation • Allows heat to be transferred through wave energy.
Renewable • Renewable resources are those resources that can be replaced as they are used up. Some examples include: • soil • air • water • wood • sunlight
Non-Renewable • Nonrenewable resource are those natural resources that cannot be replaced once they are used up. Some examples include: • oil • coal • gas • uranium
In fact ….. NOTHING would happen without ENERGY
