Energy is the ability to do WORK Work is a Force over a Distance So energy is the ability to MAKE SOMETHING MOVE! Energy is measured in CALORIES or JOULES http://www.relativity.li/uploads/images/E/E3_3.jpg http://sancarloschiropractor.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/calories.jpg The 8 Types of Energy: 1. Kinetic Energy: The energy of motion! http://artofconversation.typepad.com/art_of_conversation/images/2007/11/30/flying2.jpg The 8 Types of Energy: 2. Potential Energy: Stored Energy Comes in 2 types: Elastic: Energy stored by stretching. http://blogs.sltrib.com/slcrawler/uploaded_images/wedgie-740750.gif http://i36.tinypic.com/2wqao0i.jp The 8 Types of Energy: Gravitational: The energy stored due height. http://i.telegraph.co.uk/telegraph/multimedia/archive/01442/stealth_1442893i.jpg http://www.korto.com/images/Hoover%20Dam.jp g The 8 Types of Energy: 3. Thermal Energy: Heat energy. The energy caused by the vibrations of particles. http://www.ucolick.org/~bolte/AY4/notes7/img54.gi f http://shineanthology.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/fire.jp g The 8 Types of Energy: 4. Chemical Energy: Energy of molecular bonds. Food energy is released by digestion. http://urbanext.illinois.edu/diabetes/images/food_digestion.gif http://www.dolcera.com/wiki/images/Digestion_of_food.jpeg The 8 Types of Energy: Flammable: If something can burn it is because it releases the energy along with diatomic molecules of oxygen. http://www.rkm.com.au/ANIMATIONS/animation-graphics/4-stroke-model.jpg http://climateprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/coalfiredpowerplant.jpg The 8 Types of Energy: pH: When acids or bases react with things it is from the energy of their H+ and OH- ions breaking the bonds of other molecules. http://img.youtube.com/vi/C5DdPRcJoz8/0.jp g The 8 Types of Energy: Electromagnetic or Radiant Energy: The energy of photons. http://cassini-huygens.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/images/EMspectrum.jpg Nuclear Energy: The energy of the nucleus.

In static electricity, electrons build up and then all move at once as a discharge. http://paphysicalscience.wikispaces.com/file/view/staticelectricity-hair-stand-on-end1.jpg/77618111/static-electricityhair-stand-on-end1.jpg http://waterbutterwine.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/lightning.jpg The 8 Types of Energy: In CURRENT electricity, electrons flow through closed circuits. http://www.educationalelectronicsusa.com/p/images/current_electricity3.gif http://i.treehugger.com/images/2007/10/24/power%20lines.jp g The Law of Conservation of Energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed. You can't make blue energy out of nothing! http://simoncpage.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/creating-energy-spheres-photoshop.jpg The Law of Conservation of Energy The amount of energy in any chemical reaction is constant. So the energy in the delicious Tex-Mex meal could Be converted into all the body heat, running, thinking, and bodily functions used during a normal day of running and screaming. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L2kWU5dUpg0/SLAcxLOyaNI/AAAAAAAAABk/2Yx_s8NT7MA/s400/mexican-food.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3388/3335776238_ab873010aa.jpg The Law of Conservation of Energy Energy in any form can be converted to any other form through different processes. http://www4.agr.gc.ca/resources/prod/img/pfra/images/1239730144711_energy_chain_e.jpg The Law of Conservation of Energy Any energy transformation produces some thermal energy. The less thermal energy produced, the more efficient the energy transformation. http://www.berkeleyradiator.com/images/car_overheating.jpg http://www.independent.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00043/blairsweat_43186t.jpg The Law of Conservation of Energy Nuclear changes can convert some matter into energy and vise versa. http://files.myopera.com/Banaful/albums/1509841/matter-and-energyPh.jpg The End
