Energy Kaizenator

This piece explores essential energy concepts including potential and kinetic energy, as well as renewable and nonrenewable energy sources. Key terms defined include joules (the SI unit of energy), wattage (power for electrical devices), and the importance of insulation and weatherstripping in energy efficiency. Additionally, it discusses the carbon footprint and greenhouse gas emissions, which are critical in understanding environmental impact. Essential for anyone interested in energy science and sustainability, this overview serves as a primer on the critical components of energy use and conservation.

  1. By: Krislynn Messer, Tylissa Turner, Chaz McSears, Harold Glenn Energy Kaizenator

  2. POTENTIAL ENERGY • Still energy

  3. KINETIC ENERGY • The energy in motion

  4. JOULE • the SI unit of work or energy, equal to the work done by a force of one Newton when its point of application moves through a distance of one meter in the direction of the force: equivalent to 107 ergs and one watt-second.

  5. WATTAGE • the amount of power required to operate an electrical device.

  6. RENEWABLE ENERGY • any naturally occurring, source of energy

  7. NONRENWABLE ENERGY • Energy that comes from the ground and is not replaced in a relatively short amount of time.

  8. WEATHERSTRIPPING • A narrow strip of material to cover the joint of a door or window to exclude the cold 

  9. INSULATION • A material or substance that is used to keep out cold air.

  10. RFACTOR • a genetic component of some bacteria that provides resistance to antibiotics and can be transferred from one bacterium to another by conjugation.

  11. GREENHOUSE EMMISSION • are gases in an atmosphere that absorb and emit radiation within the thermal infrared range.

  12. THERMOSTAT • a device, including a relay actuated by thermal conduction or convection.

  13. CARBON FOOTPRINT • a measure of the amount of carbon dioxide produced by a person.

  14. EFFICIENCY • a device, including a relay actuated by thermal conduction or convection,

  15. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE • the temperature of the surrounding environment; technically, the temperature of the air surrounding a power supply or cooling medium

  16. AUDIT • the temperature of the surrounding environment.
