Transcript of Energy is everywhere in many different forms. There are 8 types of energy that require movement:
• Energy is everywhere in many different forms.
• There are 8 types of energy that require movement:
•Types of kinetic (moving) energy:
1. Sound energy
2.Solar energy
3. Mechanical energy
4. Wind energy
5. Electric energy
6. Light energy
7. Hydro energy
*All of these require movement!!
8. Geothermal energy
•Energy that an object would have if it was in motion. (stored energy)
•Possible energy of an object due to its size and position.
vs.
One of these has more potential energy…
Which one has more potential energy?
These could possibly fall and hurt someone!
Books on top shelf…
Or books on bottom shelf?These books are higher
and can fall farther!
A guy sitting up here…
Or a guy sitting at the bottom of the mountain
Which one has more potential energy?
Stop here!!
Let’s review some different types of alternative energy.
Alternative energy – clean energy that doesn’t pollute and can be turned into electricity
Solar Energy
--energy from the sun
Stop lights
Bus lightsStop sign lights
Floating ball for pool
Key chains!
Lots of solar panels – enough for a small town!
Using solar energy to make a radio work. Camp is so cool!
Hydro Energy Energy from moving water
