3
Forms of Energy
●Mechanical Energy:
●Energy of moving objects
●The sum of potential and kinetic energies
4
Forms of Energy
Thermal Energy:
●Energy stored in molecules colliding
Increased collisions, more energy, feels warmer
5
Forms of Energy
●Chemical Energy:
●Energy stored in chemical bonds
●When bonds are broken, energy is released
6
Forms of Energy
●Electrical Energy:
●Energy of electric charges
●Electrons pass through an object to create energy
7
Forms of Energy
●Electromagnetic Energy:
●Energy that travels through space in waveform
●Examples: Visible light, x-rays, radio waves
8
Forms of Energy
●Nuclear Energy:
●Energy stored in a nucleus
●Examples: Fission & Fusion
9
Energy Conversion
●Conversion
●Energy changes from one form to another
●What occurs in lighting a match?
10
Law of Conservation of Energy
●Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted
●Gravitational Potential Energy changes to kinetic energy as the object begins to move
11
Energy Resources
●Nonrenewable Energy Resources:
●Cannot be easily recreated, takes millions of years
●Fairly cheap, readily available, but create pollution
●Examples: Fossil Fuels (oil), Natural Gas, Coal, Uranium
12
Energy Resources
●Renewable Energy Resources
●Can be easily replaced
●Come either directly or indirectly from the sun
●Examples: Hydroelectric, Solar, Geothermal, Wind, Biomass
