ENERGY IS NEVER
CREATED OR
DESTROYED,IT IS
TRANSFERD FROM ONE
TYPE OF ENERGY TO
ANOTHER!

Energy.
There are 9 types of energy:
 Chemical
 Electrical
 Thermal
 Nuclear
 Light
 Sound
 Gravitational Potential
 Mechanical Potential
 Kinetic

CHEMICAL + ELECTRICAL

Chemical:
Chemical energy is stored in food or
fuel and energy is released during a
chemical reaction.

Electrical:
Electrical energy is due to electrical
charges moving.

GO BACK
THERMAL+ NUCLEAR

Thermal:
Thermal energy is caused by fast
moving particles in hot objects.

Nuclear:
Nuclear energy is due to changes in
the nuclei of atoms.

GO BACK
LIGHT+ SOUND

Light:
Anything luminous gives of light
energy.
Sound:
Sound energy is carried by sound
waves and is a result of vibrations.

GO BACK
GRAVITATIONAL+MECHANICAL
POTENTIAL
Gravitational Potential:
Is energy stored in materials that have
been moved upwards so that they can
fall down.
Mechanical Potential:
Is energy that is stored in materials that
have been bent or stretched.

GO BACK
KINETIC

Kinetic:
Energy in moving objects is kinetic
energy.

Fossil Fuels
Fossil fuels were made millions of years ago, when the land was
covered in swamp.
 As the trees and plants die they fall to the bottom of the swamp.

 They form layers of a spongy material called peat.


 Over many hundreds of years, the peat gets covered by sand, clay

and other minerals. Which turns it into a type of rock called


sedimentary.
 More and more rock piles on top of more rock, and it weighs

more and more. It begins to press down on the peat.


 The peat gets squeezed and squeezed until the water comes out of

it and eventually, over millions of years, it turns into coal, oil or


gas.

LIGHT….

LIGHT TRAVELLS IN STRAIGHT LINES.

IT TRAVELLS MUCH FASTER THAN


SOUND.

GO BACK
Reflection

THE ANGLE OF
INCIDENCE
=
THE ANGLE OF
REFLECTION

If it is a flat mirror the light ray will come out at the same angle away from the
normal as it goes in.

GO BACK
REFRACTION
As it leaves the prism the
light bends away from the
normal and speeds up.

When light enters the glass


prism, the light slows down and
it bends towards the normal.
