    Chapter 13

    Section 3: Energy
    Standards

    Standards 3: Motion and Standard 4: Forces
    Demonstrate the relationships among work, power, and
    machines
    Investigate the Law of Conservation of Energy
    Objectives
    1. Explain the term energy giving examples as well as
    relating energy to work
    2. Define potential energy and give examples
    3. Solve gravitational potential energy problems
    4. Define kinetic energy in terms of the factors that affect
    it
    5. Solve kinetic energy problems
    6. Explain the term mechanical energy in terms of where it
    comes from
    7. Explain how living things obtain energy
    Energy!!!
    We use all kinds of energy
    Energy is
    The capacity to do work!
    Whenever work is done energy is transformed/transferred!
    Types of energy: Chemical, mechanical, electrical, solar, wind,
    nuclear, ect!
    Energy is measured in
    Joules!! (J)
    What else is measured in Joules?
    WORK!!!
    So work is a form of energy!
    Objective 1: Explain the term
    energy giving examples as well
    as relating energy to work
    POTENTIAL Energy!!!
    Energy of position! Stored energy
    Results from relative positions of objects in a system
    Two types
    Elastic potential potential of a stretched band or spring
    Gravitational potential stored energy that results from the
    gravitational attraction between objects
    GPE!! (PE)
    Depends on mass and height!
    Formula =
    What is g?
    Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s
    2

    Objective 2: Define potential
    energy and give examples
    Calculating!!!
    Gravitational potential energy problems only give
    Mass and height
    YOU MUST REMEMBER TO MULTIPLY BY g!!!
    Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the
    following:
    A 1200 kg car at the top of a hill that is 42 m high
    A 65 kg climber on top of Mount Everest (8800 m)
    A 0.52 kg bird flying at an altitude of 550 m
    Objective 3: Solve gravitational
    potential energy problems
    Kinetic Energy!!!
    The energy of motion!
    Results from the motion of objects
    Can come from the potential energy an object has
    Depends on two variables
    Mass
    Velocity
    Formula =
    1
    2
    m
    2

    Which variable does KE depend on more? Why?
    Velocity because it is squared
    Objective 4: Define kinetic
    energy in terms of the factors
    that affect it
    Calculating!!!
    What is the kinetic energy of a 44 kg cheetah running
    at 31 m/s?
    What is the kinetic energy of 1500 kg car moving at 67
    m/s
    What is the kinetic energy of an 2.4 kg apple that falls
    a distance of 3.4 m in 1.4 s?
    We must calculate velocity first!!
    Objective 5: Solve kinetic
    energy problems
    Mechanical Energy!!!
    What do you think mechanical energy is?
    Energy of a machine but it isnt!!!
    Mechanical energy is the SUM of the POTENTIAL ENERGY
    and KINETIC ENERGY in a system!
    Also known as the AMOUNT of WORK we can do as a result
    of PE an KE!
    Everything has energy even atoms!
    Atomic energy is sometimes called non mechanical energy
    Most all energy comes from some form of kinetic and potential
    energies!

    Objective 6: Explain the term
    mechanical energy in terms of
    where it comes from
    Where Does Energy Come
    From?!
    Where do living things get energy?
    From food (PLANTS)
    Plants get energy from the sun
    So ultimately all energy comes from the sun
    The sun gets energy from nuclear fusion reactions (non-
    mechanical energy)
    Small masses are converted into large amounts of energy!
    Energy can also be stored in magnetic and electric fields
    Light is a form of this type of energy
    Objective 7: Explain how living
    things obtain energy
