1. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Essential Questions What is energy? What forms can energy take? How does speed change? Why do things fall? How do things move?

2. Lesson 1 – Energy: Vocabulary energy kinetic energy potential energy

3. Lesson 1 – Energy Energy is the ability to cause change. Energy can change the temperature, shape, speed, or direction of an object. Any change of energy from one form to another is called an energy transformation.

4. Lesson 1 – Energy (cont.) Kinetic energy is the energy of objects in motion. The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on the mass and speed of the object. Potential energy is energy that is stored (position or condition) and can be used later. The more kinetic energy an object has, the less potential energy it has, and vice versa.

5. Lesson 2 – Thermal and Chemical Energy: Vocabulary temperature thermal energy heat radiation conduction convection

6. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 2 – Thermal and Chemical Energy Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in any object. The greater the average kinetic energy is, the higher an object’s temperature is. The three scale systems used to divide changes in kinetic energy are: Fahrenheit (32º F, 212º F), Celsius (0º C, 100º C), and Kelvin (273 K) [0 K]

7. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 2 – Thermal and Chemical Energy (cont.) Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of the particles in a material. Thermal energy flows from a warmer object to a cooler one. This transfer is called heat. The same amount of heat transferred to different materials may not result in the same temperature change due to the makeup and amount of material.

12. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 2 – Thermal and Chemical Energy (cont.) Energy is stored in the bonds between particles in a substance. This stored (potential) energy within chemical bonds is called chemical energy. To break bonds energy must be added. This energy can be supplied by electricity, heat, light, or motion, depending on the reaction.

13. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 2 – Thermal and Chemical Energy (cont.) A reaction that absorbs energy is endothermic (ex. photosynthesis). A reaction that gives off energy is exothermic (ex. burning charcoal). The rate of a chemical reaction can be sped up or slowed down by changing the temperature, stirring the mixture, or adding a catalyst. A catalyst is a substance that changes the rate of a chemical reaction without any change to its own structure.

14. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 3 – Speed: Vocabulary average speed acceleration

15. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 3 – Speed To calculate average speed, you divide the distance traveled by the time it takes to travel this distance. #1) average speed (AS) = total distance traveled (d) / time (t) {AS=d/t, m/s} A rate is an expression, like 2 m/s, in which the denominator is time. Speed is the rate at which an object covers a distance.

16. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 3 – Speed (cont.) Acceleration is the rate at which speed or direction changes. #2) acceleration (a) = Change in speed (AS) / time (t) {a=AS/t, m/s ² } If an object is slowing down its acceleration is negative. We call this deceleration. Acceleration Animation Acceleration Animation

21. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 4 – Gravity and Mass: Vocabulary gravity force weight

22. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 4 – Gravity and Mass Gravity is the attraction between all matter. On Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s². A force is a push or a pull. The downward force of gravity on you is called your weight. The upward force of the ground is called the normal force.

23. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 4 – Gravity and Mass (cont.) When the forces acting on an object cancel each other out, the forces are balanced forces. #3) Force (F) = mass (m) x acceleration (a) {F=ma, N} Mass measures the quantity of matter. #4) Weight (w) = mass (m) x acceleration due to gravity {w=m(9.8m/s²), N}

24. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 5 – Newton’s Laws of Motion: Vocabulary friction

25. Unit 3 – Energy, Motion, and Force Lesson 5 – Newton’s Laws of Motion Newton’s Laws of Motion: – First Law: An object a rest will stay at rest or an object in motion will stay in motion until an unbalanced force acts on it. –Second Law: An object that has an unbalanced force acting on it will accelerate in the direction of the force. –Third Law: Forces always occur in equal but opposite pairs. Friction is a force that resists motion between two objects in contact.
