  2. AQA GCSE Specification ENERGY EFFICIENCY 11.2 What is meant by the efficient use of energy? Using skills, knowledge and understanding of how science works: • to describe the intended energy transfers/transformations and the main energy wastages that occur with a range of devices • to calculate the efficiency of a device using: efficiency = useful energy transferred by the device / total energy supplied to the device • to evaluate the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of methods used to reduce energy consumption. Skills, knowledge and understanding of how science works set in the context of: • Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another form. • When energy is transferred and/or transformed only part of it may be usefully transferred/transformed. • Energy which is not transferred/transformed in a useful way is wasted. • Both wasted energy and the energy which is usefully transferred/transformed are eventually transferred to their surroundings which become warmer. • Energy becomes increasingly spread out and becomes increasingly more difficult to use for further energy transformations. • The greater the percentage of the energy that is usefully transformed in a device, the more efficient the device is.

  3. Energy Energy is required to do work. Fuels are burnt to release energy The Sun is the ultimate source of most of our energy on Earth.

  4. Forms of energy Energy can exist in many forms. CHEMICAL ENERGY This is energy that is released when chemical reactions take place. Sources of chemical energy include: fuel, food and batteries.

  5. Gravitational potential energy being converted into kinetic energy. KINETIC ENERGY This is the energy possessed by a moving object. Kinetic energy increases is the object’s speed is increased. GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL ENERGY This is the energy possessed an object due to its position. The gravitational potential energy of an object increases if it is raised upwards.

  6. ELASTIC ENERGY This is the energy stored in a stretched or squashed object - also known as strain energy ELECTRICAL ENERGY This is the energy transferred by an electric current. SOUND ENERGY This is energy in the form of a sound wave.

  7. THERMAL ENERGY This is the energy of an object due to its temperature. - also known as heat energy LIGHT ENERGY This is energy in the form of visible electromagnetic radiation. NUCLEAR ENERGY This is energy that is released when nuclear reactions take place. This is the source of the Sun’s energy.

  8. Useful and wasted energy Useful energy This is energy transferred to where it is wanted in the form it is wanted. Wasted energy This is energy transferred to where it is not wanted in the form it is not wanted.

  16. In text questions: Electrical energy. High speed train (Train de grand vitesse) It is lost to the surroundings through heat transfer. From gravitational potential energy. Summary questions: (a) Gravitational potential, kinetic (b) Electrical, thermal 2. (a) For example: a candle and a torch. A candle transfers chemical energy to light and heat. a torch transfers chemical to electrical and then light and heat. (b) (i) A torch is usually more convenient. (ii) This is a matter of opinion. 3. Mechanical energy is transformed to gravitational potential energy as the pile driver lifts the heavy steel block. As the steel block falls, the gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy of the block. When the block hits the ground the kinetic energy is transformed into heat and sound energy. Forms of energy ANSWERS

  17. Conservation of energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another form. Conservation of energy also means that the total energy in the universe stays constant.

  18. MINIMUM MAXIMUM MAXIMUM ZERO Pendulum oscillation GRAVITATIOINAL POTENTIAL ENERGY KINETIC ENERGY The total energy, gravitational potential plus kinetic, remains the same if there are no significant resistive forces

The kinetic energy is transformed into gravitational potential energy as the capsule rises to the top of its flight, etc. as in bungee jumper. Conservation of energy ANSWERS

  21. Energy spreading out How energy becomes less useful Wasted energy spreads out into the surroundings. This is usually in the form of heat energy causing the energy changing device and its surroundings to become warmer. It is very difficult to ‘concentrate’ this energy again to make use of it. Friction in machines is a common cause of energy being wasted to heat.

  22. Useful energyNotes questions from pages 42/246 & 43/247 • Give two examples each of (a) useful energy and (b) wasted energy. • What effect, energy wise, does the force of friction have in machines? • Copy out the paragraph under the heading ‘Spreading out’ on page 43/247. • Copy and answer questions (a), (b) and (c) on pages 42/246 and 43/247. • Copy the Key Points on page 43/247. • Answer the summary questions on page 43/247.

  23. In text questions: It is gained by the surroundings as thermal energy. It is transferred to the surroundings as thermal energy by friction between its moving parts and in the brakes, and by air resistance. The hot water mixes with the cold water. Its thermal energy spreads out and can’t be used again. Summary questions: 1. (a) useful: thermal energy of the element; wasted: thermal energy of the case (b) useful: light and sound energy; wasted: thermal energy (c) useful: thermal energy of the water; wasted: thermal energy of the steam and of the kettle itself (d) useful: sound energy; wasted: thermal energy in the wire 2. (a) It would heat up . The lubricating oil and the gears would get hot. (b) The feet would get too hot and sweaty. (c) The drill would heat up and smoke if it burns the wood. 3. Air resistance causes friction as the pendulum swings. This produces heat and so the pendulum loses energy to the surroundings and stops. Useful energyANSWERS

  24. Energy measurement Energy is measured in joules (J) To lift an apple upwards by one metre requires about one joule of energy. 1 kilojoule (kJ) = 1 000 J 1 megajoule (MJ) = 1 000 000 J
