Ch. 5: Energizing With Energy This color = read and write down Anyothercolor = read and think about
The Nature of Energy 1 What is energy? • Wherever you are sitting as you read this, changes are taking place—lightbulbs are heating the air around them, the wind might be rustling leaves, rain changing to snow, your body turning food into heat (and the brown stuff)…and on…and on…. • Every change that occurs, large or small, involves … energy!
The Nature of Energy 1 Change Requires Energy • Energy - the ability to cause change OR the ability to do work. • Measured in Joules (J) • Anything that can cause a change must have energy. • Think about all the things you can affect and change in a day’s time (for good and for bad). • If you don’t have energy, you don’t feel like doing much of anything soooo… we NEED energy.
The Nature of Energy 1 • Energy has different forms • Electrical energy– due to the flow of _________. • Chemical energy – stored in chemical bonds (ex. food, gas, fuel) • Radiant energy – radio waves, light, x-rays • Thermal energy – heat • Kinetic energy– movement • Is the chemical energy stored in food the same as the energy that comes from the Sun or the energy stored in gasoline?
Radiant energy from the Sun travels a vast distance through space to Earth It warms the planet and is the ultimatesource of energy for every living thing on Earth. WHAT AM I ? 1
Kinetic Energy – energy of movement measured in Joules (“Jewels”) Things that are moving have it. Things that are sitting still don’t. KE = ½ mv2 m is mass (kg) v is velocity (m/s) KE is kinetic energy in Joules (J)
Sample Problem: As a paralegal your boss (a lawyer) asks you to find the KE of a 1000 kg car that was going 20 m/s when it ran a red light and hit someone. Formula: KE = ½ mv2 Work: KE = ½ (1000 kg) (20 m/s)2 Answer: KE = 200,000 J
Potential Energy (P.E.)– stored energy. a) Elastic P.E. – from something that can stretch or compress. i.e. – rubber band, spring, shocks, tramp. b) Chemical P.E. – from chemical bonds i.e. – gasoline, food, bombs, natural gas c) Gravitational P.E. – anything that can fall i.e. – book on a bookshelf, roller coaster at the top of a hill (formula on next slide)
GPE = mgh GPE is gravitational potential energy (J) m is mass (kg) g is accel. due to gravity (9.8 m/s2) h is height (m) The higher off the ground something is the ______ potential energy it has!
Sample Problem: As an engineer’s assistant you need to find the GPE of a roller coaster part so you can order the right one. The mass is 1000 kg and it is 10 m off the ground at its highest point. Formula: GPE = mgh Work: GPE = (1000 kg)(9.8 m/s2)(10 m) Answer: GPE = (98,000 J)
1 An Energy Analogy Money can be used as an analogy for energy. You have a $ 750,000 inheritance coming to you • $ 400 is cash • $17,500 is gold coins • $ 130,000 is CD’s • $ 40,000 is in a savings account • $ 535,000 is in BASEBALL CARDS • Would you want the baseball cards?
Regardless of its form, money is money. • The same is true for energy. • Energy from the Sun that warms you... • Energy from the food that you eat… • Energy from the powerplant that runs your play-station… are only different forms of the same thing.
Energy can change from one form into another but the total amount NEVER changes. • Law of Conservation of Energy – energy CAN NEVER be created or destroyed.
The Nature of Energy 1 Kinetic Energy • The SI unit of energy is the joule – symbol J. • If you dropped a softball from a height of about 0.5m, it would have a KE of about one joule before it hits the floor.
Example 3 What is the kinetic energy of a baseball moving at a speed of 40 m/s if the baseball has a mass of 0.15 kg? ANS: KE = ½ mv2 KE = ½ (0.15 kg)(40 m/s)2 KE = 120 J
The Nature of Energy 1 GPE: stored energy that is due to an object’s position. • If the apple stays in the tree, it will keep the stored energy due to its height above the ground.
The Nature of Energy 1 Potential Energy • If it falls, that stored energy of its position is converted to energy of motion which is ______ ________.
The Nature of Energy 1 8. Energy Transformations • GPE Kinetic and Electrical • the dam • Electrical Radiant • Cell phone • Electrical Kinetic (sound wave) • mp3 player • Chemical Kinetic and Thermal - car taking off
Starting with the food I ate, diagram the energy transformations as I walk over and turn on the light. T.E. C.P.E E.E. K.E. Starting with the coal from the power plant, diagram the energy transformations on the hair dryer T.E. T.E. K.E. C.P.E. E.E.
The Nature of Energy 1 Chemical Potential Energy When natural gas is burned, energy stored in the bonds that hold the atoms together and is released .
The Nature of Energy 1 9. Changing GPE • GPE changes with height above the ground. • The higher off the ground an object is, the more GPE it has. • If two objects are at the same height, the one with the most mass has the most GPE.
