Energy changes

Energy is a really important idea in science.  It lets us calculate what it is possible and helps us explain all kinds of processes.  Let's find out more:

Task 3b: Make notes that:

Tell you how to find out how much energy is stored in an object.

Based on the experiment described in the slides, answer the following:

• State the independent variable.

• State the dependent variable.

• List the control variables.

• Draw a diagram of the apparatus

Task 4b: Make notes that:

Tell you how to write a method for an experiment.

How to stay safe during an experiment.

Based on the experiment described in the slides, answer the following:

• State the independent variable.

• State the dependent variable.

• List the control variables.

• Draw a diagram of the apparatus

Task 7b: Make notes that:

• Describe  why objects change temperature

• Name the 4 different energy transfers

• Define  conduction

• Define  convection

• Define  radiation

Task 8b: Make notes that:

• Define  work done

• Describe what affects the work done

• Give  the equation to calculate work done

Task 9b: Make notes that:

• Describe  what power is

• Know  how power is related to energy

Task 10b: Make notes that:

• Write  a method to investigate how the height a ball is dropped from affects the bounce height.

• List the independent, dependent, control variables for the above experiment.

• Draw a results table that could be used.

Task 11b:  Make a mind map or single page revision summary of this topic and add it to your revision folder.
