2 Chapter Seven: Energy  7.1 Energy and Systems  7.2 Conservation of Energy  7.3 Energy Transformations

3 7.1 What is energy?  Energy measures the ability for things to change themselves or to cause change in other things.  Some examples are changes in temperature, speed, position, pressure, or any other physical variable.

4 7.1 Units of energy  Pushing a 1-kilogram object with a force of one newton for a distance of one meter uses one joule of energy. A joule (J) is the S.I. unit of measurement for energy.

5 7.1 Joules  One joule is a pretty small amount of energy. An ordinary 100 watt electric light bulb uses 100 joules of energy every second!

6 7.1 Some forms of energy  Mechanical energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion or its position.  Potential energy and kinetic energy are both forms of mechanical energy.

7  Energy associated with motion: 6 Mechanical Energy

8 7.1 Some forms of energy  Chemical energy is a form of energy stored in molecules.  Example: Batteries are storage devices for chemical energy.

9  Energy released or stored when atoms are bonded together.  Bonds can be broken to release this energy. 8 Chemical Energy The chemical bonds in a matchstick store energy that is transformed into thermal energy when the match is struck.

10 7.1 Some forms of energy  Electrical energy comes from electric charge.  Caused by the flow of electrons

11 Electric Energy  Example: Power lines: Electric energy is easily transported through power lines and converted into other forms of energy

12 7.1 More forms of energy  Nuclear energy is a form of energy stored in the nuclei of atoms.  In the Sun, nuclear energy is transformed to heat that eventually escapes the sun as radiant energy.

13 7.1 More forms of energy  Radiant energy is energy that is carried by electromagnetic waves.  Light is one form of radiant energy.

14 7.1 More forms of energy  The electromagnetic spectrum includes visible light, infrared radiation (heat), and ultraviolet light.  Light energy and heat energy are included in the electromagnetic spectrum.

20 What type of energy is shown below? Chemical Energy (yummy)

21 What type of energy is shown below? Thermal Energy

22 7.1 Sources of energy  Without the Sun’s energy, Earth would be a cold icy place with a temperature of -273 C.  As well as warming the planet, the Sun’s energy drives the entire food chain.

23 7.1 Sources of energy  All objects with mass feel forces in the presence of Earth’s gravity.  These forces are a source of energy for objects or moving matter such as falling rocks and falling water.

24 7.1 Energy and work  In physics, the word work has a very specific meaning.  A force is said to do work when it acts on an object & there is a displacement in the direction of the force.  Work is the transfer of energy that results from applying a force over a distance.

25 Work and Potential Energy  The work done on the ball gives the ball gravitational potential energy.  Gravitational potential energy = mgh 24

26  Energy stored in an object due to its position.  Examples: 25 Potential Energy

27  Depends on the weight of the object and its height above some reference point.  Formula: 26 Gravitational potential energy

28 Gravitational Potential Energy Example:  Both blocks acquire the same gravitational potential energy, mgh.  The same work is done on each block. What matters is the final elevation, not the path followed. 27

29 Elastic Potential Energy  The potential energy due to the physical distortion (stretched or compressed) of an object.  Depends on:  Type of material  Amount of distortion 28

30 Elastic Potential Energy Example:  Work is done on the bow.  The work done is stored in the bow and string as elastic potential energy.  After release, the arrow is said to have kinetic energy, 1/2 mv 2.  Energy is measured in the same units (joules) as work. 29

31 Potential Energy  Systems or objects with potential energy are able to exert forces (exchange energy) as they change.  Potential energy is energy due to position, which can change.

32 Potential Energy E P = mgh height object raised (m) gravity (9.8 m/sec 2 ) PE (joules) mass of object (g)

33 Kinetic energy  Energy of motion is called kinetic energy.  A moving cart has kinetic energy because it can hit another object (like clay) and cause change.

34 EEnergy of motion AAll moving objects possess kinetic energy CCan change from one type to another 33 Kinetic Energy

35 Factors Which Affect Kinetic Energy:  Mass & Velocity  KE = ½ mv 2  This makes the velocity much more important than the mass.  Doubling the velocity will quadruple the kinetic energy. 34

36 Kinetic Energy E K = ½ mv 2 mass of object (kg) velocity (m/sec) KE (joules)

37 Solving Problems  A 2 kg rock is at the edge of a cliff 20 meters above a lake.  It becomes loose and falls toward the water below.  Calculate its potential and kinetic energy when it is at the top and when it is halfway down.  Its speed is 14 m/s at the halfway point.

38 Solving Problems 1.Looking for:  …initial E K, E P and E K, E P half way down. 2.Given:  mass = 2.0 kg; h = 20 m  v = 14 m/s (half way) 3.Relationships:  E P =mgh  E K = ½ mv 2  Assume rock starts from rest.

39 Solving Problems E K = 0 J E P = mgh E K = ½ mv 2 E P = mgh h = 10 m h = 20 m 4.Solution  Draw a free body diagram.  E P = (2 kg)(9.8 N/kg)(20 m) = 392 J at top  E P = (2 kg)(9.8 N/kg)(10 m) = 196 J half way  E K = 0 J, rock is at rest  E K = (1/2)(2 kg)(14 m/s) 2 = 196 J half way m = 20 kg

40 Chapter Seven: Energy  7.1 Energy and Systems  7.2 Conservation of Energy  7.3 Energy Transformations

41 7.2 Conservation of Energy  Systems change as energy flows and changes from one part of the system to another.  Each change transfers energy or transforms energy from one form to another.

42 7.2 Energy flow  How can we predict how energy will flow?  One thing we can always be sure of is that systems tend to move from higher to lower energy.

43 7.2 Sources of energy  The chemical potential energy stored in the food you eat is converted into simple sugars that are burned as your muscles work against gravity as you climb the hill.

44 Bell Work! Energy Transformation  1. What is the formula for Gravitational potential energy?  2. What is the formula for Kinetic energy?  3. How does the Pe at the top of a hill compare to the Ke at the bottom?

45 Energy Transformation  The work done in lifting the mass gave the mass gravitational potential energy.  Potential energy then becomes kinetic energy.  Kinetic energy then does work to push stake into ground. 44

46 7.2 Units of energy  Some units of energy that are more appropriate for everyday use are the kilowatt hour (kWh), food Calorie, and British thermal unit. oFoF

48 Chapter Seven: Energy  7.1 Energy and Systems  7.2 Conservation of Energy  7.3 Energy Transformations

49 7.3 Conservation of Energy  The idea that energy tranforms from one form into another without a change in the total amount is called the law of conservation of energy.  The law of energy conservation says the total energy before the change equals the total energy after it.

50 7.3 Conservation of Energy  When you throw a ball in the air, the energy transforms from kinetic to potential and then back to kinetic.

51 Energy Conservation  Total energy is the sum of both types of energy. 50

52 Energy Conversion in Pendulums 51

53 Energy conversions  All forms of energy can change from one form to another.  Examples: 52

54 Solving Problems  A 2 kg car moving with a speed of 2 m/sec starts up a hill.  How high does the car roll before it stops? mgh = ½ mv 2

55  A 2 kg car moving with a speed of 2 m/sec starts up a hill.  How high does the car roll before it stops? E K = ½ 2kg (2 m/s) 2 E K = 4 J E p = 2kg (9.8 m/s 2 ) X mgh = ½ mv 2

56 Solving Problems 1.Looking for:  …height of hill 2.Given  … mass = 2 kg, v = 2 m/s 3.Relationships:  Energy transformed from E K to E P  E K = ½ mv 2  E P =mgh

57 Solving Problems 1.Solution  Find beginning E K  E K = ½ (2 kg) (2 m/s) 2 = 4 Joules  Assume energy before = energy after  E K = E P  E P =mgh4 J = mgh  h = (4 Nm)/(2 kg)(9.8 N/kg) =.2 m

58 7.3 Conservation of Energy  Many people are concerned about “running out” of energy.  What they worry about is running out of certain forms of energy that are easy to use, such as fossil fuels like oil and gas.

59 7.3 Conservation of Energy  It took millions of years to accumulate these fuels because they are derived from decaying, ancient plants that obtained their energy from the Sun when they were alive.  Because it took a long time for these plants to grow, decay, and become oil and gas, fossil fuels are a limited resource.

60 7.3 Conservation of Energy  Regular (incandescent) light bulbs convert only 10% of electrical energy to light.  That means 90% of the energy is released as wasted heat.

61 7.3 Conservation of Energy  Other forms of energy, such as thermal energy, flowing water, wind, and solar energy are not as limited.

62

63 Conservation of Energy  Energy can be neither created nor destroyed. 62
