Energy

Transformations
Objective: I will be able to
recognize the ways energy
changes forms.

This too shall pass


Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qybUFnY7Y8w
Which forms of energy did you see in the video?

Type here.

The Law of conservation of energy

Energy cannot be created or


destroyed, but it can change forms.
Chemical energy
(battery)

What is energy
conversion?
Light energy

● Energy can change forms from


one to another.
● As seen in the video, sometimes
energy changes form many times
in just one task.

Elastic Potential Energy


The wound up rubber band in the plane has
elastic potential energy.
What kind of energy is the
elastic potential energy
transforming into?

Type here.

When the rubber band is let go, the energy will be


released.

Energy conversion in plants
Plants are unique because they can transform light energy into chemical energy
through the process of photosynthesis

All life on Earth relies on this process.

Imagine yourself at
the park.

As you swing back


and forth, energy is
transforming from
kinetic to potential
and back again.
At what point do you have the most potential energy?

Type here.

At what point do you have the most kinetic energy?

Type here.

Why does the swing stop if you stop pushing yourself?

Type here.

Friction transforms kinetic


energy to heat.

Materials like rubber create a

Materials like ice create very
little friction and allow motion
to occur.
Brainstorm
Can you name a time Can you name a time
engineers would want to engineers would want to
increase friction (prevent decrease friction (allow
motion) in a device? motion) in a device?
