  • Energy
  • Slide 3
  • What is energy? Energy is the ability to do work.
  • Slide 4
  • Law of Conservation of Energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed.
  • Slide 5
  • There are two states of energy or types of energy. Potential and kinetic.
  • Slide 6
  • Potential Potential is stored energy
  • Slide 7
  • Kinetic Kinetic is the energy of motion.
  • Slide 8
  • There are five main forms of energy. Chemical Mechanical Electromagnetic Heat (thermal) Nuclear
  • Slide 9
  • Chemical Energy Energy that is available for release from chemical reactions.
  • Slide 10
  • Mechanical Energy Energy due to a objects motion (kinetic) or position (potential).
  • Slide 11
  • Electromagnetic oLight energy o Includes energy from gamma rays, xrays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared rays, microwave and radio bands oMoving electric charges
  • Slide 12
  • Heat or Thermal Internal motion of atoms. The heat energy of an object determines how active its atoms are.
  • Slide 13
  • 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).
  • Slide 14
  • Energy Transfer Chemical Electrical Sound (mechanical) Light (Electromagnetic) Thermal Mechanical
  • Slide 15
  • There are three types of (energy) heat transfer. Convection Conduction Radiation
  • Slide 16
  • Convection Convection is the transfer of heat energy in a gas or liquid by movement of currents due to changes in density.
  • Slide 17
  • Conduction is the transfer of energy through matter from particle to particle.
  • Slide 18
  • Radiation Allows heat to be transferred through wave energy.
  • Slide 19
  • Slide 20
  • Renewable Renewable resources are those resources that can be replaced as they are used up. Some examples include: soil air water wood sunlight
  • Slide 21
  • Non-Renewable Nonrenewable resource are those natural resources that cannot be replaced once they are used up. Some examples include: oil coal gas uranium
