Resumo de Recurso
Using energy
Different forms of energy
Chemical energy = energy stored in fuel (including food), and is released when chemical reactions take place
Kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object
Gravitational potential energy (or GPE) is the energy of an object due to its position
Electrical energy is energy transferred by an electric current
Thermal (heat) energy is the energy of an object due to its temperature, partly because of the random kinetic energy of the particles of the object
Elastic (or strain) energy is the energy stored in a springy object when we squash or stretch it
Sound energy is energy created from sounds
Energy can only be transformed from one form to another
Energy cannot be lost it can ONLY be changed from 1 form to another
EXAMPLE= torch chemical energy in battery => electrical energy => light energy + thermal energy
Energy conservation
CONSERVATION OF ENERGY ! -- energy cannot be created or destroyed
Useful energy, Wasted energy ,Efficiency
Useful energy is energy transferred to where we want it to go
Wasted energy is energy which is not usefully transferred
Wasted energy spreads out to its surroundings.
EXAMPLE = the gears of a car get hot when the car is running, so thermal energy transfers from the gear box to the surrounding air
Useful energy eventually transfers to its surroundings too
EXAMPLE= , the useful energy supplied to the road wheels of a car changes into thermal energy of the tyres, the road and the surrounding air
Energy becomes less useful when its spread out
The Sankey diagram to the left shows how we can represent useful and wasted energy outputs from a machine or appliance
We can sum this up by using this general equation: energy supplied = useful energy delivered + energy wasted
For any device that transfers energy, we can use this to work out the energy efficiency of it:
useful energy transferred by __________________________________ device total energy supplied to device
Efficiency =
