Explore the fascinating process of energy transformation through various chains, including the conversion of a cow's remains into fertilizer, leading to corn growth and biofuel production. This engaging overview covers seven major types of energy: kinetic, potential, chemical, nuclear, thermal, radiant, and electrical. Learn how energy flows through systems, exemplified by trains powered by coal and innovative solar technologies. Discover the interconnectedness of energy sources and their environmental impact, highlighting the importance of sustainable practices.

  1. Energy Transformation Marissa Bohlman, Matt French, Brian Hauschild

  2. Energy • 7 major types • Energy- is the ability to perform work • Kinetic • Potential • Chemical • Nuclear • Thermal • Radiant • Electrical

  3. Chain #1 • Cow >Cow Dies >Turns into fertilizer > Corn grows (with a little help from the sun and water) >Corn used as bio fuel > Consumed by car >car is crushed > Smelted

  4. Collage

  5. Cow Chain #1 • Its dead carcass decomposes in a compost pile • It then is used as fertilizer in the corn field • On a beautiful summer afternoon a cow waddles around minding his own business. • Then it catches mad cow disease and dies shortly after. • The farmers leaves the carcass in the compost pile. • The corn grows super tall with help from the dead cow, the CO2 released from the sun and also from the rain water. • The corn is sent to a factory where it is processed and turned into bio fuel

  6. Cow Chain Continues • Eco-friendly car Car compacted Smelted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. Chain #2 • Train > Train uses coal to run > burning coal heats water >steam turns cylinders > Train moves through the country >helps goods arrive on time.

  8. Train Chain (no rhyme intended) • Metal Recycled from old car made into train. • The locomotive is coal-powered • The coal is burned into steam and the train runs (Chemical) Heats the H2O to high pressure (potential) • The train is used to transport things through the county • Chugga Chugga Chugga Chugga CHOO CHOO! • The steam released moves the turbines. (Mechanical)

  9. Chain #3 • Sun>Solar panel> Toaster Oven> Yoda Pizza> Airbud Slams it down/ Catches TD pass

  10. Dog chain • Sun (nuclear) Sun into panel (Electrical) Electricity into oven (Thermal) Dog has energy to dunk a basketball and dive for a football (mechanical) Yoda pizza is cooked (Chemical)

  11. What is the smelting process? • It’s only the coolest thing in the world! • Entropy

  12. Now it is really the End
