sound, electrical, chemical, and mechanical.
Also Assesses:
SC.5.P.10.2 - Investigate and explain that energy has the ability to cause motion or
create change.
• SC.4.P.10.3 - Investigate and explain that sound is produced by vibrating objects
and that pitch depends on how fast or slow the object vibrates.

object or travels from one medium to another.
• SC.3.P.10.4 - Demonstrate that light can be reflected, refracted, and absorbed.
• SC.3.P.11.1 - Investigate, observe, and explain that things that give off light often
also give off heat.

Big Idea 11: Energy Transfer &
Transformation Benchmarks
SC.5.P.10.4 - Investigate and explain that electrical energy can be transformed
into heat, light, and sound energy, as well as the energy of motion. Also
Assesses:
• SC.3.E.6.1 - Demonstrate that radiant energy from the sun can heat
objects and when the sun is not present, heat may be lost.
• SC.4.P.11.1 - Recognize that heat flows from a hot object to a cold object
and that heat flow may cause materials to change temperature.
• SC.4.P.11.2 - Identify common materials that conduct heat well or poorly.

Energy is all around us!
– You can hear energy as sound
when someone talks.
– You can see mechanical energy every time you
move.
– You can see energy as light from the sun or a
lamp.
– You can feel it as heat warms things up.

Kinetic Energy
Energy due to motion.
• Types of kinetic energy
• Kinetic energy can change into other forms of
energy.
Department of Mathematics and Science
Potential Energy
Stored energy that could cause change in the
future.
Potential energy is stored energy--energy ready to
go. A lawn mower filled with gasoline, a car on
top of a hill, and students waiting to go home
from school are all examples of potential energy.
Types of potential energy
• gravitational
• compressed spring
• chemical
• magnetic
Department of Mathematics and Science
Mechanical Energy
• Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed
by an object due to its motion or due to its
position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic
energy (energy of motion) or potential energy
(stored energy of position)
• All energy can be in one of two states: potential
energy or kinetic energy.
The amount of mechanical energy depends on the
object’s speed and mass.
Department of Mathematics and Science
Chemical Energy
• Chemical energy is made when substances react and
form new substances.
• Food, batteries, and fuels such as oil and gasoline
are stored chemical energy.
• Chemical energy can change to:
sound
light
thermal
electrical
kinetic
Department of Mathematics and Science
What is Sound?
https://www.pearsonsuccessnet.com/snpapp/login/login.jsp
• Sound is a form of energy produced by a
vibration or a back and forth movement of an
object.
• Sound is a wave of vibrations that spread from
its source of its matter.
• The more vibrations the waves have, the more
energy, the louder the sound.
• The faster the vibrations or the frequency, the
higher the sound.
• How high or low a sound is called the pitch.
Department of Mathematics and Science
What is light?
•
•
•
Light is something that allows us to see
objects.
Light is a form of energy.
Light is produced by the vibrations of
electrically charged particles.
Department of Mathematics and Science
Properties of Light
• Light travels in a straight path.
• Light doesn’t travel through all objects.
These are defined as opaque.
• Light can be absorbed and changed to heat.
Department of Mathematics and Science
Properties of Light Continued
• Light bounces off or is reflected from some
kinds of opaque objects.
• Some objects let all light pass through them
are known as:
transparent
• Some objects let some light pass through
them are known as:
translucent

Bending Light Lab
Write down responses on your note page.
• Problem: What does light do when it travels
from one medium or state of matter (air) through
another medium (water)?
• Hypothesis:
• Test and Observe: Follow steps from the lab
sheet.
• Conclusion:
Department of Mathematics and Science
Light Changes Direction
• Light bends or refracts as it passes from one
medium (form of matter: solid, liquid or gas)
to another.
• Refraction of Light Virtual Tutorial
Department of Mathematics and Science
What is Thermal Energy?
• Thermal energy is the total of all the kinetic
and potential energy of the atoms in an object.
• When any form of matter gets warmer, the
kinetic energy of its atoms increases.
• The object’s particles move faster, so its thermal energy
increases.
• A change in thermal energy can lead to a change in phase or
state of matter.
• Temperature is a measure of thermal energy.

What is the Transformation of Energy?
Energy can change and move from one object
to another.

>
light
Where does the energy of a lit light bulb transfer to
after the flashlight has been on for a while?
Heat energy transfers into the air.

in your science notebook as you rotate
throughout the various stations.
Reflections:
• Describe what you learned in the energy
stations.
• What was interesting?
