  1. Energy Physical Science

  2. Energy Objectives 1. Distinguish between kinetic and potential energy. 2. Calculate kinetic energy. 3. Describe different forms of potential energy. 4. Calculate gravitational potential energy. • Describe how energy can be transferred from one form to another. • Explain how the mechanical energy of a system is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy. • 7. Discuss the law of conservation of energy.

  3. Nature of Energy Energy is the ability to cause change 1. kinetic energy (Ek)- energy in the form of motion -depends on an object’s mass and speed ~increase mass, increase kinetic energy ~increase speed, increase kinetic energy

  4. Nature of Energy 1. Kinetic energy (Ek) -shown by the relationship kinetic energy = ½ mass x speed2 Ek = ½ mv2 -SI unit is the Joule (J), or kg•m2/s2, or N•m -the faster you are moving, the more kinetic energy you have, helping you overcome gravity

  5. Which is more important to Ek, speed or mass? -if you double the mass, you only double that component Ek = ½ mv2 Ek = ½ mv2 = ½ (2kg)(1m/s)2 = ½ (4kg)(1m/s)2 = (1kg)(1m2/s2) = (2kg)(1m2/s2) -if you double the velocity, you quadruple that component Ek = ½ mv2 Ek = ½ mv2 = ½ (1kg)(1m/s)2 = ½ (1kg)(2m/s)2 = (0.5kg)(1m2/s2) = (0.5kg)(4m2/s2)

  6. Kinetic Energy: Example 1 A jogger whose mass is 60 kg is moving at a speed of 3 m/s. What is the jogger’s Ek? Known variables: m = 60 kg v = 3 m/s Unknown variable: Ek = ? Formula: Ek = ½ mv2 =1/2(60kg)(3 m/s)2 =30 kg(32 m2/s2) =30 kg(9 m2/s2) =270 kg•m2/s2

  7. Kinetic Energy Practice Remember: J = kg·m2/s2 • What is the EK of a 1500 kg car moving at 18 m/s? • A 4 kg rock is rolling 10 m/s. Find the EK. • A rolling ball has 18 J of energy and is rolling 3 m/s. What is it’s mass? • A 4 kg bird has 8 J of kinetic energy. How fast is it flying?

  8. Energy Homework 1 1. Two trucks have the same velocity but different masses. The truck with the greater mass has ___________ EK than the other truck. 2. __________ is the ability to cause change. 3. A __________ is a unit of measure of all forms of energy. 4. Which has more kinetic energy: A 25 kg mass or a 30 kg mass? 5. Which has more kinetic energy: Two 10 kg masses, one going 75 m/s and one going 45 m/s? 6. Which has more kinetic energy: A car at rest or a car rolling down a hill?

  9. 2. potential energy- energy in a motionless object, giving it the potential to cause change. a. elastic potential energy- energy stored by things that compress or stretch b. chemical potential energy- energy stored in chemical bonds between atoms

  10. c. gravitational potential energy (EGP)- energy stored by things that are above Earth. -amount depends on its mass, the acceleration due to gravity and its height above ground - EGP = mass x 9.8 m/s2 x height EGP = mgh 2. potential energy (EP)- energy in a motionless object, giving it the potential to cause change.

  11. Potential Energy: Example 1 Suppose a ceiling fan has a mass of 7 kg and is 4 m above the ground. What is its gravitational potential energy? Known variables: m = 7 kg g = 9.8 m/s2 h = 4 m Unknown variable: EGP = ? J Formula: EGP = mgh =(7 kg)(9.8 m/s2)(4 m) =274 kg·m2/s2 =274 J

  12. Potential Energy Practice Remember: J = kg·m2/s2 1. Calculate the EGP of a 0.52 kg bird flying at an altitude of 550 m. 2. A diver has 3400 J of EGP after stepping up onto a platform that is 6.0 m above the water. What is the diver’s mass? 3. Before ascending the cliff, a 65 kg rock climber has a EGP of 22295 J. How high was he from the base of the cliff?

  13. Energy Homework 2 1. Two baseballs have the same mass. The ball closer to the ground has __________ GPE than the other ball. 2. The _________ energy of an object depends on its mass and height. 3. The energy of food and other fuels is __________ potential energy. 4. What is the difference between kinetic and potential energy? 5. Which has more potential energy: a 25 kg mass or a 30 kg mass at the top of a hill? 6. Which has more potential energy: a car at the top of the hill or the bottom of a hill?

  14. Kinetic and Potential Energy Practice Remember: J = kg·m2/s2 • Calculate the potential energy of a 5 kg object sitting on a 3 m ledge. • A 10 kg rock is at the top of a 20 m tall hill. How much potential energy does it have? • How high up is a 3 kg object that has 300 J of energy? • An object with 20 J of energy sits on a cliff that is 15 kg high. What is the mass of the object? • A skater travels 150 m with 38 J of energy. How fast is he going?

  15. Energy Quiz 1 • Label each of the following as either kinetic or potential energy: a. Car traveling 45 mi/hr b. Rock on a 5m ledge • Which has more potential energy: plane on the ground or a plane in the air? • What are the units for energy? • What kind of energy is gained from a. A to C? b. D to F? 5. An 8 kg object has 64 J of energy. How fast is it going?

  16. Conservation of Energy Law of Conservation of Energy: energy may change from one form to another, but the total amount of energy never changes top = all potential (no kinetic) middle = ½ potential + ½ kinetic bottom = all kinetic (no potential)

  17. Since energy can only be transformed, then for an object thrown into the air or falling, EK (at the bottom)= EGP (at the top) and Total Energy (ET) = EK + EGP What happens to the kinetic energy as the potential energy increases? -as potential energy increases, kinetic energy decreases and vice versa

  18. Energy Transformations energy conversions-energy changing from one form to another 1. chemical energy (as seen earlier) -fuels store energy -chemical PE thermal energy and/or kinetic energy 2. electrical energy (aka electricity) -lightbulbs light + thermal energy -alarm clocks sound + light + thermal energy -video games sound + light + thermal energy

  19. Energy Transformations 3. thermal energy (heat energy) -heat burns -end product of many transformations 4. nuclear energy (from radiation, fission, fusion) -produces huge amounts of energy -fusion in the sun heat + light + radiation -fission in power plants heat (steam) electricity

  20. Energy Transformations 5. radiant energy (light energy) -aka electromagnetic radiation -sun chemical potential (photosynthesis) 6. mechanical energy (can become work) -energy of an objects motion (EK) or position (EGP) -swinging, falling, tossing a ball

  21. In energy conversions, friction converts some of the mechanical energy into thermal energy (heat) and sometimes sound.
