3 Work and Energy: Forms and Changes

4 Energy The ability to do work
It is like the “Currency” for performing work. To do 100 J of work, you must expend 100 J of energy Energy

5 Energy Energy is all around you: You use energy when you:
Light Heat Wind You use energy when you: hit a softball lift your book bag digest food Every change that occurs—large or small—involves energy

6 Changes Require Energy
When something is able to change its environment or itself, it has energy Anything that causes change must have energy You use energy to arrange your hair to look the way you want it to You also use energy when you walk down the halls of your school between classes or eat your lunch

7 Nature of Energy What is energy? Energy- the ability to do work
If an object or organism does work the object or organism uses energy Whenever you do work you transfer energy from one thing to another

8 Nature of Energy Because of the direct connection between energy and work, energy is measured in the same unit as work: joules (J) In addition to using energy to do work, objects gain energy because work is being done on them

IN YOUR OWN WORDS ANSWER QUESTION 9 ON YOUR CATAPULT WS

10 Forms of Energy Some examples of different forms of energy are: Thermal (heat) Chemical Electromagnetic Nuclear Mechanical If you have $100, you could store it in a variety of forms—cash in your wallet, a bank account, or coins Regardless of its form, money is money, and the same goes for energy in that these are only different forms of the same thing

11 States of Energy The most common energy conversion is the conversion between potential and kinetic energy All forms of energy can be in either of two states: Potential Kinetic

12 Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy- the energy of motion
Depends on both mass and velocity The faster an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has The greater the mass of a moving object, the more kinetic energy it has KE = Ek = mass x velocity2 2 What has a greater effect on kinetic energy, mass or velocity? Why?

13 Potential Energy Even motionless objects have energy
Potential energy- stored energy due to interactions between objects If the apple stays in the tree, the energy will remain stored If the apple falls, that stored energy is converted to kinetic energy

15 When did you use KE? Explain how your catapult utilized KE.

16 Common forms of Potential Energy
You will each be given one of three common forms of PE. Read your slide of information and write a 1 sentence summary in your notebook. Share your 1-sentence summaries with other classmates. You should write down their 1-sentence summary in your notes. You need one for: Elastic PE; Chemical PE; and Gravitational PE

17 Elastic Potential Energy
If you stretch a rubber band and let it go, it sails across the room As it flies through the air, it has kinetic energy due to its motion but where did this kinetic energy come from? The stretched rubber band had energy stored as elastic potential energy Elastic potential energy is energy stored by something that can stretch or compress, such as a rubber band or spring

18 Chemical Potential Energy
Gasoline, food, and other substances have chemical potential energy Energy stored due to chemical bonds is chemical potential energy Energy is stored due to the bonds that hold the atoms together and is released when the gas is burned

19 Gravitational Potential Energy
Any system that has objects that are attracted to each other through gravity has gravitational potential energy Gravitational potential energy (GPE) - energy due to gravitational forces between objects Water and Earth Apple and Earth

20 Gravitational Potential Energy
Depends on mass and height PE = mgh PE = Ep = m (kg) x g (m/s2) x h (m) where g is the force caused by gravity (9.8 m/s2) If you stand on a 3-meter diving board, you have 3 times the G.P.E, than you had on a 1-meter diving board A person with 3 times a larger mass has 3 times the potential energy

21 Gravitational Potential Energy
A waterfall, a suspension bridge, and a falling snowflake all have gravitational potential energy

26 ANSWER QUESTION 10

27 The Law of Conservation of Energy
The Law of Conservation of Energy- energy can be neither created nor destroyed by ordinary means, it can only be converted from one form to another Energy can change from one form to another, but the total amount of energy never changes The total energy of a system remains constant

28 Energy Transformations
The law of conservation of energy is a universal principle that describes what happens to energy as it is transferred from one object to another or as it is transformed You are likely to think of energy as race cars roar past or as your body uses energy from food to help it move, or as the Sun warms your skin on a summer day These situations involve energy changing from one form to another form

29 Mechanical Energy Transformations
Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and potential energy of the objects in a system The mechanical energy of a system remains constant or nearly constant In these cases, energy is only converted between different forms of mechanical energy

30 Mechanical Energy Transformations
An apple-Earth system has gravitational potential energy due to the gravitational force between apple and Earth The instant the apple comes loose from the tree: It accelerates due to gravity It loses height so the gravitational potential energy decreases Its potential energy is transformed into kinetic as the speed of the apple increases The potential energy that the apple lost is gained back as kinetic energy so the total amount of energy remains the same

31 Energy Transformation in Projectile Motion
Energy transformations also occur during projectile motion when an object moves in a curved path However, the mechanical energy of the ball-Earth system remains constant as it rises and falls

32 Energy Transformation in a Basketball
Ball speeds up Ball slows down Force of gravity

33 Energy Transformation in a Roller Coaster
At the point of maximum potential energy, the car has minimum kinetic energy. Total energy is conserved and constant

34 Energy Transformations in a Swing
When you ride on a swing part of the fun is the feeling of almost falling as you drop from the highest point to the lowest point of the swing’s path The ride starts with a push that gets you moving, giving you kinetic energy As the swing rises, you lose speed but gain height In energy terms, kinetic energy changes to gravitational potential energy

35 The Effect of Friction You know that if you don’t continue to pump a swing or get a push, your arcs will become lower and you eventually will stop swinging In other words, the mechanical (kinetic and potential) energy of the swing decreases, as if the energy were being destroyed or lost Is this a violation of the law of conservation of energy?

36 The Effect of Friction NO!!! Energy in the system is conserved
With every movement, the swing’s chains rub on their hooks and air pushes on the rider Friction and air resistance cause some of the mechanical energy of the swing to change to thermal energy With every pass of the swing, the temperature of the hooks and the air increases a little, so the mechanical energy of the swing is not destroyed, but transformed into thermal energy, or heat

37 Conservation of Energy with a Pendulum
When is the pendulum moving the fastest? at the lowest point

38 Conservation of Energy with a Pendulum
When does the pendulum have the most kinetic energy? at the lowest point

39 Conservation of Energy with a Pendulum
When does the pendulum have the most gravitational potential energy? at the highest point

40 Conservation of Energy with a Pendulum
K E

41 Conservation of Energy with a Pendulum
K E Gravitational potential energy depends on height

42 Conservation of Energy with a Pendulum
K E Kinetic energy depends on speed

43 E = P + K P K E

44 Total Energy Doesn’t Change
P + K = E

45 A Pendulum PE PE All KE No KE No KE

46 Transforming Electrical Energy
Light bulbs transform electrical energy into light so you can see The warmth you feel around the bulb is evidence that some of that electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy, or heat

47 Transforming Chemical Energy
Fuel stores chemical potential energy An engine transforms chemical potential energy of gasoline molecules into the kinetic energy of a moving car or bus Several energy conversions occur in this process In a car, a spark plug fires, initiating the conversion of chemical potential energy into thermal energy As the hot gases expand, thermal energy is converted into kinetic energy

48 Transforming Chemical Energy
Some chemical energy transformations are less obvious because they do not result in visible motion, sound, heat or light Every green plant you see converts the radiant energy from the Sun into the energy stored in chemical bonds in the plant, like in carbohydrates (sugars) When we eat we transform the potential energy stored in the carbohydrate bonds and transform it into kinetic energy

49 Other Energy Conversions
In a battery, chemical energy is converted into electromagnetic energy The mechanical energy of a waterfall is converted to electrical energy in a generator Chemical  Thermal Mechanical
