• What is energy?
• What are the different forms of energy?
• How is energy used?
Types of Energy
• energy
• kinetic energy
• electric energy
• potential energy
• chemical energy
• nuclear energy
Types of Energy
• mechanical energy
• thermal energy
• sound energy
• seismic energy
• radiant energy
• Energy is the ability to cause a change.
• Wind, coal, nuclear fuel, Earth’s interior, and the Sun also are sources of energy that can be transformed into other forms of energy, such as electrical energy.
What is energy?
• Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because it is in motion.
• Anything that is in motion has kinetic energy, including large objects that you can see as well as small particles, such as molecules, ions, atoms, and electrons.
Kinetic Energy
• Electrons move around the nucleus of an atom, and they can move from one atom to another.
• When electrons move, they have kinetic energy and create an electric current.
• The energy that an electric current carries is a form of kinetic energy called electric energy.
Kinetic Energy (cont.)
When the blades of wind turbines rotate, they turn a generator that changes the kinetic energy of the moving blades into electric energy.

• Kinetic energy depends on mass.
• If the turbine blades were smaller and had less mass, they would have less kinetic energy.
Kinetic Energy (cont.)
• Kinetic energy also depends on speed.
• When the wind blows harder, the blades move faster and have more kinetic energy.
Kinetic Energy (cont.)
Kinetic Energy (cont.)
electric
from Greek electrum, means “amber”; because electricity was first generated by rubbing pieces of amber together
• Potential energy is stored energy that depends on the interaction of objects, particles, or atoms.
• Gravitational potential energy is a type of potential energy stored in an object due to its height above Earth’s surface.
Potential Energy
• Gravitational potential energy depends on the mass of an object and its distance from Earth’s surface.
• The more mass an object has and the greater its distance from Earth, the greater its gravitational potential energy.
Potential Energy (cont.)
Hydroelectric energy plants convert the gravitational potential energy of water into electric energy.
• Most electric energy in the United States comes from fossil fuels such as petroleum, natural gas, and coal.
• The atoms that make up these fossil fuels are joined by chemical bonds.
• Chemical energy is energy that is stored in and released from the bonds between atoms.
Potential Energy (cont.)
When fossil fuels burn, the chemical bonds between the atoms that make up the fossil fuel break apart. When this happens, chemical energy transforms to thermal energy.
This energy is used to heat water and form steam. The steam is used to turn a turbine, which is connected to a generator that generates electric energy.
• A drawback of fossil fuels is that they introduce harmful waste products, such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide, into the environment.
• Scientists are searching for replacement fuels that do not harm the environment.
Potential Energy (cont.)
• Chemical energy also is stored in the foods you eat.
• Your body converts the energy stored in chemical bonds in food into the kinetic energy of your moving muscles and into the electric energy that sends signals through your nerves to your brain.
Potential Energy (cont.)
• The majority of energy on Earth comes from the Sun.
• Nuclear fusion, a process found in the Sun, joins the nuclei of atoms and releases large amounts of energy.
Potential Energy (cont.)
Nuclear energy plants break apart the nuclei of certain atoms using a process called nuclear fission.
Nuclear fission produces a large amount of energy from just a small amount of fuel.
• Both nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release nuclear energy—energy stored in and released from the nucleus of an atom.
• Nuclear fission produces radioactive waste that is hazardous and difficult to dispose of safely.
Potential Energy (cont.)
Objects such as wind turbine blades and particles, such as molecules, ions, atoms, and electrons, often have kinetic and potential energies.
Kinetic and Potential Energies Combined
• The sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in a system of objects is mechanical energy.
• Mechanical energy is the energy an object has because of a combination of the following:
• the movement of its parts (kinetic energy)
• the position of its parts (potential energy)
Kinetic and Potential Energies Combined (cont.)
• Thermal energy is the sum of the kinetic energy and potential energy of the particles that make up an object.
• Individual particles vibrate back and forth in place, giving them kinetic energy.
• The particles also have potential energy because of the distance between particles and the charge of the particles.
Kinetic and Potential Energies Combined (cont.)
• The particles in Earth’s interior contain great amounts of thermal energy.
• This energy is called geothermal energy.
Kinetic and Potential Energies Combined (cont.)
Geothermal energy plants turn water into steam, which turns turbines in electric generators that covert the geothermal energy to electric energy.
• Waves are disturbances that carry energy from one place to another.
• Sound energy is energy carried by sound waves.
• Some animals, such as bats, emit sound waves to find prey

Energy Transformations and Work
• Energy transformation is the conversion of one form of energy to another.
• When energy is transferred, the form of energy does not have to change.
Energy Transformations
• The law of conservation of energy says that energy can be transformed from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed.
• Even though energy can change forms, the total amount of energy in the universe does not change. It just changes form.

• The direction of friction is in the opposite direction of the motion.
• In every energy transformation and every energy transfer, some energy is transformed into thermal energy.
Energy and Heat
• This thermal energy is transferred to the surroundings.
• Thermal energy moving from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature is called heat.

• Lubricating the moving parts of a machine reduces the friction between the moving parts so that less input work is transformed to waste energy.
