One of the concepts Mr. Finley reminded us about was that, "Energy cannot be created, energy can only be transferred."
Types of Energy
Mechanical Energy- ex. chalk smashing ability or CSA
Light Energy- see information from the light unit
Chemical Energy- ex. Battery
Electric Energy- Electricity
Nuclear Energy
Changes In Energy
Lamp- Electric Energy to Light Energy
Battery, wire, and light bulb- Chemical Energy to Electric Energy to Light Energy
Our Main Focus On Energy This Unit: MECHANICAL ENERGY
Why was today's class important? Any confusion with anything? Advice?
The first important thing we did was review. Reviewing is very important. It helps us remember concepts that we may have forgotten in the past. It also helps clear up any confusion anyone may have concerning any topic.
Then, Mr. Finley talked about types of energy. This helped us understand what types of energy there were. He also said we would be focusing on Mechanical Energy. This would help us understand what we are learning.
Lastly, Mr. Finley told us to think of some situations where energy changes. This was important because it helped us understand that there are many situations when there are changes in the type of energy. The ones listed above are only a few very simple ones. Below are a few more.
