  3. What is energy • Wherever you are sitting as you read this, changes are taking place—lightbulbs are heating the air around them, the wind might be rustling leaves, or sunlight might be glaring off a nearby window. • Every change that occurs—large or small—involves energy.

  4. Change Requires Energy • When something is able to change its environment or itself, it has energy. Energy is the ability to cause change. • Anything that causes change must have energy

  5. Different Forms of Energy • Energy has several different formselectrical, chemical, radiant, and thermal. • Is the chemical energy stored in food the same as the energy that comes from the Sun or the energy stored in gasoline?

  6. Different Forms of Energy • Radiant energy from the Sun travels a vast distance through space to Earth, warming the planet and providing energy that enables green plants to grow.

  7. An Energy Analogy • If you have $100, you could store it in a variety of formscash in your wallet, a bank account, travelers’ checks, or gold or silver coins. • You could transfer that money to different forms • You could deposit your cash into a bank account or trade the cash for gold.

  8. An Energy Analogy • Regardless of its form, money is money. • The same is true for energy. • Energy from the Sun that warms you and energy from the food that you eat are only different forms of the same thing.

  9. Which has the most KE? • Which has the least KE? 80 km/h 50 km/h 80 km/h Energy • Kinetic Energy (KE) • energy in the form of motion • depends on mass and velocity • if you double the velocity, you increase KE by four 80 km/h truck 50 km/h motorcycle

  10. Kinetic Energy (KE) • The SI unit of energy is the joule, abbreviated J. • If you dropped a softball from a height of about 0.5m, it would have a kinetic energy of about one joule before it hit the floor.

  11. Potential Energy • Even motionless objects can have energy. This energy is stored in the object. • A hanging apple in a tree has stored energy • Stored energy due to position is called potential energy.

  12. Energy • Potential Energy (PE) • stored energy • depends on position or configuration of an object • Which boulder has greater gravitational PE? • What other ways can an object store energy?

  13. Elastic Potential Energy • If you stretch a rubber band and let it go, it sails across the room. It gains kinetic energy. • As it flies through the air, it has kinetic energy due to its motion. • Where did this kinetic energy come from? • The stretched rubber band had energy stored as elastic potential energy. • Elastic potential energy is energy stored by something that can stretch or compress, such as a rubber band or spring.

  14. Chemical Potential Energy • Gasoline stores energy in the same way as food stores energy: in the chemical bonds between atoms. • Energy stored in chemical bonds is chemical potential energy. • Energy is stored in the bonds that hold the carbon and hydrogen atoms together and is released when the gas is burned. • In this chemical reaction, chemical potential energy is released.

  15. Gravitational Potential Energy • Anything that can fall has stored energy called gravitational potential energy. • Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is energy stored by objects due to their position above Earth’s surface. • Gravitational potential energy can be calculated from the following equation. • On Earth the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2, and has the symbol g.

  16. Changing GPE • According to the equation for gravitational potential energy, the GPE of an object can be increased by increasing its height above the ground. • If two objects are at the same height, then the object with the larger mass has more gravitational potential energy.

  17. GPE • A 3kg crow is perched on a tree limb 20m above the ground. What is the crow’s GPE GIVEN: m = 3kg h = 20m g = 9.8 m/s2 GPE = ? WORK: GPE = (M)(g)(H) GPE = 3x9.8x20 GPE = 588J

  18. KE V2 ½ M Kinetic Energy • The crow (the same as above) starts to chase a hawk and flies at a velocity of 6m/s what is his Kinetic Energy GIVEN: m = 3kg v = 6 m/s KE = ? WORK: KE = 1/2mxv² KE = ½ (3kg)(6m/s)² KE = 54 J
