ENERGY TRANSFORMATIONS Potential/Kinetic Heat Transfers Inclined Planes & Pulleys

A lamp that plugs into a wall socket draws energy which flows through a thin wire in the bulb causing it to glow. What energy transformations are taking place? Electrical  Light  Thermal

Mimi was eating dinner at Pappasitos when she decided that she was going to help the waiter and pass out some dinner plates. She burned her hand on the first plate. How was the heat transferred from the plate to her hands? Conduction

Look at the rollercoaster pictured below Look at the rollercoaster pictured below. Where on the coaster do we have the most potential energy? Point A

Arrange the points in the picture below from most kinetic to least kinetic: D, E, C, F, B, G, A

Mechanical  Electrical  Light The picture shows a light bulb attached to a hand generator. What energy transformation occurs as the handle of the generator is turned? Mechanical  Electrical  Light

Chemical  Electrical  Light The diagram shows a circuit with the bulb glowing. How does the energy change as it moves from inside the battery, along the wires, and through the light bulb? Chemical  Electrical  Light

What are the 5 signs of a chemical change? New substance formed Gas given off Color change Temperature change Fire

What is an advantage of using an inclined plane? It reduces the amount of force used

Chemical  Electrical  Sound What energy transformations take place when a battery-operated radio is in use? Chemical  Electrical  Sound

People get energy from the food that they eat and transform that energy as they move. Which energy transformations occur as a student eats and then rapidly rubs the palms of their hands together? Chemical  Mechanical  Thermal

The pulley pictured below is a _____________ pulley The pulley pictured below is a _____________ pulley. When using this pulley the amount of force ____________ and the direction the load moves ___________. moveable decreases stays the same

When using a simple machine, the amount of work always ___________. Stays the same

What is the difference between an element and a compound? An element is a pure substance; a compound is 2 or more elements chemically combined

Label the following as elements or compounds: NaCl: He: N2SO4: H: cl: OH: Neither Compound

Made up of 2 elements that are chemically combined Carbon is considered an element, while carbon dioxide is considered a compound. This is because carbon dioxide is – Made up of 2 elements that are chemically combined
