2
Yesterday you learned "2 Types and 4 Forms of Energy"
Types: Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy
Forms of Energy: Thermal, Electrical, Mechanical, and Radiant
Extra Forms of Energy You Saw: Sound, Chemical, Nuclear, Elastic Potential Energy and Gravitational Potential.
3
You also learned the "Law of Conservation of Energy"
***Energy cannot be destroyed, but it can be transformed.***
Today we will look at how energy can change from one form to another.
4
Energy changing from one form to another...
is sometimes called energy conversion or energy transformation.
>>> Any form of energy can change into any other form of energy.
5
Multiple Choice
See the picture. There is electrical energy coming from the outlet in the wall. When the energy goes into the lamp what energy does it transform into?
Mechanical Energy
Thermal Energy
Sound Energy
Light Energy
6
Often one form of energy can change into more than one form.
Chemical-> Heat-> Kinetic-> Electrical-> Heat
7
Multiple Select

Multiple Choice
Skateboarder #1 is showing potential energy as he waits at the top of the half pipe.
Skateboarder #2 has dropped into the half pipe, to what type of energy has he converted his potential energy?
Potential
Thermal
Kinetic
Chemical
10
Food is chemical energy used to make the body function.
It is converted into kinetic energy to help the body move
It is also converted into thermal energy to keep the body warm.
11
Energy Conversion in Plants
Chemical energy stored in the food we eat ultimately comes from the sun.
The process is called photosynthesis. Light energy is converted into chemical energy.
12
Energy Conversions are needed in EVERYTHING we do.
(Think of what you do everyday.)
13
