Energy

WHAT IS ENERGY ?
Energy is the capacity the objects have to produce changes For example: when we leave an example: object under the sun its temperature changes. changes. This is procuded by the solar energy

Energy Forms
Heat Light Sound Kinetic
(movement)

Chemical Electrical Nuclear

HEAT ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY THAT COMES IN FORM OF HEAT EXAMPLE THE HEATER

LIGHT ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY THE OBJECTS THAT TRANSMIT LIGHT HAVE

SOUND ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY THE OBJECTS THAT PRODUCE SOUNDS HAVE LIKE THE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

KINETIC ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY THAT THE OBJECT MOVING HAVE FOR EXAMPLE A CAR MOVING

CHEMICAL ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY THAT GIVE US THE FOOD, THE BATTERIES AND THE FUEL

ELECTRICAL ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY THAT THE ELECTRICAL DEVICES USE

NUCLEAR ENERGY
IT IS THE ENERGY MADE BY SOME CHEMICAL ELEMENTS SUCH AS THE PLUTONIUM AND URANIUM

ENERGIES CAN BE TRANSFORMED IN OTHER FORMS OF ENERGIES BUT THEY CAN NEVER BE DESTROYED

THE ELECTRICITY IS THE MOST USEFUL FORM OF ENERGY BECAUSE:

IT IS EASILY TRANSPORTED AND CAN BE EASILY TRANSFORMED IN OTHER TYPES OF ENERGY: Light energy(bulb) energy(bulb) heat energy (heater) heater)

THE FORMS OF ENERGY ARE STORED IN TWO GROUPS: RENEABLE AND NONNON-RENEWABLE

THE SOURCES OF ENERGY

THE SOURCES OF ENERGY GIVE US THE ENERGY WE NEED RENEWABLE SOURCES

UNRENEWABLE SOURCES

RENEWABLE SOURCES
These are energies that can be regenerated or that existed big amounts of them for example the sun and the wind

RENEWABLE
SUN BIOMASS (plants) plants)

WIND WATER GEOTHERMAL

NONNON-RENEWABLE SOURCES
These energies cannot be replace or there are a few amount of them for example the oil

NONNON-RENEWABLE
OIL NATURAL GAS

COAL NUCLEAR

THE FORMS OF ENERGY THAT WE MOST USE ARE:

FUELS:
COAL NATURAL GAS OIL

WATER WIND URANIUM AND PLUTONIUM

ENERGIES THAT ARE NOT SO OFTEN USED

THE SUN They have light and heat energy ROCKS AND WATER FROM THE VOLCANIC AREAS. They have lots of heat energy THE BIOMASS. It comes from the organic rests TIDES AND WAVES.They have kinetic energy

ELECTRICITY
Electricity is produced in electrical power stations

Depending on the type of energy they use we can have: have:

Hydroelectric power station
They use the energy from the waterfalls in the reservoirs

Power Station
They obtain the energy burning fuel like coal or oil

Nuclear Power Station

They use uranium and plutonium to produce thermal enerby

SOLAR POWER STATIONS They transformed the energy from the Sun in electricity

WIND POWER STATIONS They use the kinetic energy from the wind

HOW IT IS THE ELECTRICIY TRANSPORTED?

The electricity produced in the power stations is transformed to the towns and cities through electrical grid

PROBLEMS WITH ENERGY

CHANGES IN THE LANDSCAPE NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON LIVING THINGS CONTAMINATION RUN OUT OF NON-RENEWABLE NONRESOURCES

HOW TO SAVE ENERGY

SWITCH OFF THE LIGHTS WHEN YOU ARE NOT USING THEM

USE THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT

HOW TO SAVE ENERGY

NOT TO USE THE HEATER OR THE AIR CONDITIONED IF IT NOT NECESSARY

DON DONT LEAVE THE FRIDGESS DOOR FRIDGES OPEN

HOW TO SAVE ENERGY

DON DONT INTRODUCE HOT FOOD IN THE FRIDGE
