4th Grade - Energy and Energy Transfer

Electrical energy transformation occurs when–

• electrical energy stays electrical energy

• electrical energy goes back to the power station

• electrical energy doesn't move

• electrical energy changes into another type of energy

Electrical Energy is

• Energy resulting from the flow of charged particles

• energy that travels as waves through the air or water and vibrates the eardrum upon contact

• that which is needed to do work

• moving energy from one object or material to another, or from one form to another

Where do most electric currents used to power cities come from?

• power stations

• windmills

• solar panels

• cars

Electric Currents

• Moving energy from one object or material to another, or froom one form to another

• the flow of electrical energy through a circuit

• energy that allows us to see

• energy resulting from the flow of charged particles

Heat Energy

• Moving energy from one object or material to another, or from one form to another

• Energy that travels as waves through the air or water and vibrates the eardrum upon contact

• describes change in an objects position with respect to time and in comparison to other objects

• energy that causes a change in temperature between materials
