ENERGY TRANSFORMATIONS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vJCOdFqiYg Bill Nye – Forms of Energy
KEY UNDERSTANDINGS • Energy cannot be created or destroyed. (Turn & Talk) • Energy can be transformed from one type of energy to another.
What are the most common forms of energy? • Chemical • Electrical • Sound • Nuclear • Thermal • Light (radiant)
Where does energy go? • Remember the law of conservation of energy!
Energy is TRANSFORMED from one form of energy to another! • With your group can you guess some examples of energy transformations.
What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy?
Potential Energy is stored energy!! (not yet moving) • Kinetic energy is energy in motion!
How Heat is Transferred Heat is transferred in 3 ways: • Conduction • Convection • Radiation
Conduction vs. Convection • Conduction • Heat is transferred through direct contact (touch) Examples: • Touching a hot stove • Convection • Heat is transferred through circulation within a liquid or gas Examples: • Hot chocolate melting marshmallows
