PPT-EQ: How is mechanical energy conserved in regards to potential and kinetic energy?

LO We will understand that energy can take many forms but the total energy in a system is constant CT I will investigate and calculate the changes of different forms of energy The Law . Two Types of Energy. Energy. Energy . is often defined as the ability . to change matter or to . do work. Work Occurs when a force is applied to an object and the object moves a distance. Work is measured in a unit called joules (J).. Changing Forms of Energy. Energy is most noticeable as it transforms from one type to another.. What are some examples of transforming electrical energy?. A lightbulb. A hair dryer. Changing forms of Energy. QOD: What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy? . 1. . energy. – the ability to do work. energy is transferred by a force moving an object through a distance. when work is done on an object, energy is transferred to that object . Law of Conservation of Energy. aka. First Law of Thermodynamics. the . first law of thermodynamics.  is a version of the . law of conservation of energy. , adapted for . thermodynamic.  systems. The . You . need energy to force an object to move. You need energy to make matter change. . The . blowing wind, the warm Sun and a falling leaf are all examples of energy in use. .. . Energy makes motion and change possible.. By Jonathan. Recap:. Last week we talked about countersteering. What was . countersteering. ?. Turn in the other direction in order to complete a turn.. A while back we mentioned velocity. What was . th. . 1. Give two examples of heat convection.. 2. Describe specific heat in your own words.. 3. Which of the following substances heats up the quickest? . Aluminum = 900 c/J kg K . Copper = 390 c/J kg K . Mass/matter and energy. 1.Wind . forces the turbine to spin.. 2.The spinning turbine makes electrons move in the generator.. 3.The energy is then delivered to homes via power lines.. Which describes the transformation of energy?. POTENTIAL. ELASTIC. CHEMICAL. GRAVITATIONAL. FORMULA.  . Since the gravitational potential energy of an object is directly proportional to its height above the zero position, a . doubling. of the height will result in a . Tuesday May 21 Overview Energy Motion Object Potential Mechanical Energy Chemical Elastic Chemical Gravitational Elastic Gravitational The nature of energy Energy of a spinning bicycle wheel Energy stored in food How is work, power and energy related?. What is energy?. 2 types . Kinetic . Potential. 2. types . Gravitational . Elastic . Table of Contents . What are other forms of energy?. Mechanical. Thermal . Essential Question:. How are potential & kinetic energy related?. Standard:. S8P2b. Explain the relationship between potential and kinetic energy.. Concept. Attainment. Activity. [see resources]. Energy is the ability to. . do work (cause change). .. When a force causes an object to be displaced, work was done upon the . object.. Examples:. brushing your hair, walking down the hall, eating your lunch, yawning.. Conservation of Mechanical Energy. The Law of Conservation of Energy. The sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the objects in a system is the system’s . mechanical energy . (. ME. )..
