Bill Nye video – “Energy”
Objective:
Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system. (S.7.PS.2)

2. “Conservation of Energy” student activity
Create an example of “how energy transforms from one form to the next” on your filmstrip. Please use your own examples, not one from the notes.
Color your example.
Cut out your filmstrip.
Cut out your TV and the center box of TV.
Glue on page 40; DO NOT GLUE THE SIDES OF THE TV

5. Write title on page 41, “Temperature and Heat”
Temperature – the measure of the average amount of motion(kinetic energy) in particles of matter.
Temperature Conversion Equations
When converting…
⁰F⁰C
⁰C = (5/9)(⁰ F - 32)
⁰C⁰F
⁰F = (9/5)(⁰C) + 32

6. WRITE DOWN ON SAME PAGE…
Thermal expansion – almost all substances expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Thermal energy – measures the total energy of moving particles.
**Temperature = average.**
**Thermal Energy = total**

7. Specific Heat of Common Materials
WRITE DOWN ON SAME PAGE…
Heat – thermal energy that flows from something at a higher temperature to something at a lower temperature.
Specific heat - amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a substance by 1 ⁰C

12. Write title on page 45, “Transferring Thermal Energy”
Thermal energy is transferred from place to place by:
Conduction
Convection
Radiation
Transfer of thermal energy by collision between particles in matter.
Transfer of thermal energy by the movement of warmer and cooler fluid.
Transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves.

13. WRITE DOWN ON SAME PAGE…
Conduction – occurs in solids, liquids, and gases. Metals are the best conductors of heat. Convection– occurs in wind and fluids. Rising of warmer fluid and sinking of cooler fluid forms a convection current. Radiation– occurs in gases and waves.

14. WRITE DOWN ON SAME PAGE…
Insulator – material in which heat flows slowly. Examples of materials that are insulators are wood, some plastics, fiberglass, and air.
