Energy can change from one form to another = Energy Conversions Ex: Toaster – changes electrical to thermal energy

2 Making Electricity Making an electric current.
Thermal energy from burning fuel Magnets surrounded by copper wire. The Shaft rotates, magnets turn inside the copper Which boils water, making Steam Which turns the turbine That is connected to a generator

3 Energy in the Home Transformations in your house.
Appliances transform electricity into energy to perform useful work.

4 Electric Water Heater: Has a heating element that changes electricity into thermal energy that heats the water. Refrigerator: Electric Motor runs a compressor which runs heated gases outside coils that becomes a liquid that cools & evaporates. Cold gas is pumped into the tubes in the Fridge.

5 Types of Energy that are Potential
Electrical Chemical Nuclear Electromagnetic

6 Types of Energy that are Kinetic
Light Thermal Mechanical Sound Electrical
