ENERGY CONVERTED TO A FAN

THE SUN

• Nuclear fusion on the sun is created when elements interact w/ eachother
• The nuclear fusion creates many forms of energy such as thermal and radiant energies
• These energies will soon give energy to plants

PLANTS

• Radiant energy allows the seeds to grow and they warm themselves w/ thermal energy
• Many years later, these plants undergo a massive change
• The plants that were grown using radiant energy, decay.
• The plants sink back into the ground like the seed was in the 1st stage
• They become coal, a very important fuel to create electricity

COAL

• Coal is created from the plants
• This coal has within it chemical potential energy
• Coal, being very valuable is mined from the ground
• It is then taken to a coal plant to change energy forms
• The forms that it changes to is Thermal Energy and Electricity

COAL ELECTRIC PLANT

• The coal is taken to be burned
• It creates thermal energy
• The thermal energy heats water
• The water creates steam which rotates the turbine
• The turbine creates motion which powers the generator

FAN

• The generator creates electricity or electric energy
• The electric energy travels through wires
• The wires ultimately go to your home
• The electricity enters the fan
• The fan produces sound and kinetic energy
