Chapter 5 Energy and Energy Source Do you know these forms of energy ? heat energy 热能 light energy 光能 sound energy 声能 electrical energy 电能 kinetic energy 动能 stored energy 势能 chemical energy 化学能 Heat Energy Light Energy Sound Energy Electrical Energy Kinetic Energy Stored Energy Chemical Energy About Energy Energy is all around us. It exists in various forms: heat, light ,sound, electrical energy, kinetic energy, stored energy and nuclear energy. Energy Conversion One form of energy can be changed into another form. The changed can be controlled or uncontrolled. Controlled energy changes are out of control are harmful. Heat transfer Heat transfer is the flow of energy from a hotter place to a colder place. Heat energy is transferred in 3 ways: by conduction by convection by radiation ConductionConduction takes place in solid.  2. ConvectionConvection is found in liquids and gases only. 3. RadiationRadiation can occur in a vacuum. The origin of energy Plants get their energy from sunlight. Let’s review! coal 煤 convection 对流 oil 石油 energy conversion 能的转换 convert 转换 vacuum 真空 control 控制 radiation 辐射 coal and oil are our main fuels, and they get their energy from the sun. There before, we can say that almost all energy on earth comes from the sun. * * Just Do It!!! Uncontrolled controlled In liquids: In air: Animals need plants as their food. All our food is either from plants or animals. The origin of all the energy is the sun. I KNOW EVERY THING!!!
