Energy Conversion

What is energy transfer?

• The movement of energy from one location to another

• The changing of energy from one type to another

• The total amount of energy always remains the same

• Energy can never be created or destroyed

What happens when a windmill converts wind energy into electrical energy?

• The movement of energy from one location to another

• The changing of energy from one type to another

• The total amount of energy always remains the same

• Energy can never be created or destroyed

What are some examples of energy transformation?

• The Sun transforms nuclear energy into heat and light energy

• Our bodies convert chemical energy in our food into mechanical energy for us to move

• An electric fan transforms electrical energy into kinetic energy

• Lightning converts electrical energy into light, heat and sound energy

What is energy conservation?

• The movement of energy from one location to another

• The changing of energy from one type to another

• The total amount of energy always remains the same

• Energy can never be created or destroyed
