•, , Chemical – Food is consumed and converted into motion for playing sports or taking, a test., , •, , Radiant – Sunlight is consumed by plants and converted into energy for growth., , •, , Electrical – Energy transferred to an oven is converted to thermal energy for heating, our food., , Now you know the basic forms of energy. The next question is “What are the energy, sources?”, There are renewable and nonrenewable sources of energy. A renewable energy source, is a form of energy that is constantly and rapidly replenished by natural processes., Examples of renewable energy sources include:, •, , Biomass – The use of a living or once living organism as fuel, , •, , Hydropower – The energy produced from the movement of water, , •, , Geothermal – The use of heat from within the Earth or from the atmosphere, near oceans to warm houses or other buildings, , •, , Wind – The use of wind to generate electricity, , Solar – The use of the sun as a source of heat; for instance, to heat a room within a, house, etc., Energy Conversion, Examples, Fossil fuels Chemical → Heat → Mechanical → Electrical, Solar cells Sunlight → Electrical, Wind turbines Kinetic → Mechanical → Electrical, Hydroelectric Gravitational potential → Mechanical → Electrical, Nuclear, , Nuclear → Heat → Mechanical → Electrical, , Vehicle, , System Conversion, , Mechanical, , Heat, 120

Potential energy of an object at a height, An object increases its energy when raised through a height., The potential energy of an object at a height depends on the ground level or the zero level, , 4. Law Of Conservation Of Energy, The principle of Conservation of Mechanical Energy, The total mechanical energy (E=KE+PE) of an object remains constant as the object moves,, provided that the net work done by external non-conservative forces is zero, Wnc=0J, Total mechanical energy: the sum of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy, E = KE + PE, Wnc = (KEf - KE0) + (PEf - PE0), Wnc = (KEf + PEf) - (KE0 + PE0), Wnc = Ef - E0, Ef =, , KEf + PEf), , E0 = KE0 + PE0, , 121
