CHAPTER NEW CHAPTER Energy the BIG idea Energy has different forms, but it is always conserved. 3.1 Energy exists in different forms. 3.2 Energy can change forms but is never lost. 3.3 Technology improves the ways people use energy. CHAPTER OUTLINE CHAPTER RESOURCES 3.1 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Energy exists in different forms. • Energy is the ability to cause a change. • Different forms of energy produce changes in different ways. • Kinetic energy depends on mass and speed. VOCABULARY energy kinetic energy potential energy High Speed Low Speed CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 3.1 KEY CONCEPT CHAPTER HOME Energy exists in different forms. • Energy is the ability to cause a change. • Different forms of energy produce changes in different ways. • Kinetic energy depends on mass and speed. • Potential energy depends on position and chemical composition. VOCABULARY energy kinetic energy potential energy CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 3.2 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Energy can change forms but is never lost. • Energy often needs to be transformed in order to produce a useful form of energy. • The law of conservation of energy states that energy is never created or destroyed. VOCABULARY law of conservation of energy energy efficiency CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 3.2 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Energy can change forms but is never lost. • Energy often needs to be transformed in order to produce a useful form of energy. • The law of conservation of energy states that energy is never created or destroyed. • Energy can be transformed in many different ways, including from potential energy (PE) to kinetic energy (KE) and back again. VISUALIZATION Investigate the relationship between potential energy and kinetic energy. VOCABULARY law of conservation of energy energy efficiency CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 3.3 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Technology improves the ways people use energy. • Different forms of technology are being developed and used to improve the efficiency of energy conversions. VOCABULARY solar cell • Solar cells convert sunlight into electrical energy. • New solar cells convert light into electrical energy more efficiently than those in the past CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 3.3 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Technology improves the ways people use energy. • Different forms of technology are being developed and used to improve the efficiency of energy conversions. VOCABULARY solar cell • Solar cells convert sunlight into electrical energy. • New solar cells convert light into electrical energy more efficiently than those in the past VISUALIZATION CLASSZONE.COM Observe how solar cells produce electricity.
