1
Energy
2
The ability to do work and overcome resistance. The ability to cause change.
3
Energy Work – The relationship between force on an object and distance moved. W = Fd Work = Force · Distance
4
Energy Unit of Energy = Joule Since the unit of force is a Newton and distance is measured in meters, a Joule is a N · m. James Prescott Joule 1818 -1889
5
Work – Energy Theorem W = ∆ E K
6
Energy Energy is Classified as either Potential or Kinetic Energy.
7
Energy Potential Energy is stored energy due to: Chemical Composition Mass and Position Elasticity
8
Energy Gravitational Potential Energy depends on an object’s mass, height and acceleration due to gravity. U g = mgh
9
Energy What is the gravitational potential energy of a 57 kg rock on a 125 m hill?
10
Energy Elastic Potential Energy is energy stored in an object that is stretched or compressed.
11
Energy What is the elastic potential energy of a spring that has been compressed 0.22 meters with a force of 3.5N? 3.5N 0.22m
12
Energy Kinetic Energy is energy of motion. It depends on an object’s mass and velocity. KE = ½ mv 2
13
Energy What is the kinetic energy of a 800Kg bobsled moving at 15 m/s?
14
Energy Backyard Examples of Work and Energy (Problems w/ Calculations) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyPOCSEJWP4
15
Energy Law of Conservation of Energy The total amount of energy in a system is conserved. [Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only changed forms].
16
Conservation of Energy Lego – PE, KE and Energy Conservation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEajHxTM1CE&feature=related Divers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqQ83CPH3i8
17
Energy Usually named for the source of the force involved. MechanicalNuclear ChemicalElectromagnetic Thermal(incl. electricity & magnetism) Into to Types of Energy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7lCkQV7GEE&feature=related
18
Energy Mechanical Energy – Application of a force by the movement of objects or particles.
19
Energy Chemical Energy – Contained within the chemical bonds of molecules.
20
Energy Electromagnetic Energy – Energy that travels as waves.
21
Electromagnetic Energy Electricity – Force applied by electrons.
22
Electromagnetic Energy Magnetism – Force applied by magnetic field.
23
Electromagnetic Energy Electricity and Magnetism are related.
24
Energy Nuclear Energy – Energy contained within the nucleus of an atom. FissionFusion Splitting the atom. Combining Nuclei
25
Nuclear Fusion
26
Energy Thermal Energy – The total internal energy of a substance. Dictates the amount of particle motion.
27
Energy Remember: Energy can change forms. Ex. Mechanical Electrical
28
Energy Conversions What type of energy operates the toy duck? Describe the energy transformations that gave the duck its energy.
29
Energy Resources Non-Renewable – Sources that take extremely long periods to develop –Fossil Fuels –Uranium Renewable (AKA Alternative) – Sources that can be easily replenished. –Solar –Wind –Hydroelectric –Geothermal –Biomass –Fuel Cells
30
Non-Renewable Energy Resources Fossil Fuels – Derived from decayed organic matter. [ Coal, Oil, Natural Gas ]
31
Non-Renewable Energy Resources
32
Nuclear - Radioactive elements that emit thermal energy upon decay.
33
Renewable Energy Sources Solar – Energy converted from electromagnetic energy to electricity of thermal energy. Thermal CollectorPhotovoltaic Cell
34
Renewable Energy Sources Solar Arrays
35
Renewable Energy Sources Wind – Mechanical Energy derived from the kinetic energy of moving air particles.
36
Renewable Energy Sources Hydroelectric - Mechanical Energy derived from the kinetic energy of moving water particles.
37
Renewable Energy Sources Hydroelectric
38
Renewable Energy Sources Geothermal – Using thermal energy from the Earth.
39
Renewable Energy Sources Geothermal – Using thermal energy from the Earth.
40
Renewable Energy Sources Biomass - Using the energy stored in organic matter to generate other forms of energy.
41
