PRESENTATION OUTLINE

energy transfer

heat moves from warmer to cooler objects

thermal/heat energy

kinetic energy of a substance's atoms; more heat- more movement
Photo by Pete Prodoehl

temperature

how hot or cold; average kinetic energy
Photo by diathesis

mechanical energy

potential to kinetic with objects

electrical energy

plugged in/batteries

light energy

electromagnetic waves

conduction

heat transfer by touch

convection

heat transfer in a liquid

radiation

heat transfers by waves in space

expansion

gets hotter = larger

contraction

gets colder = smaller

conductors

helps electricity or heat flow
Photo by tanakawho

insulator

blocks heat or electricity from flowing

absorbed

energy of light is transferred to another surface
Photo by 橋頭堡

transmitted

light goes through transparent objects
Photo by Mothlike

reflected

light bounces back perfectly

scattered

reflecting light in all directions

refracted

light bends

transverse waves

perpendicular- electromagnetic waves

gamma rays

shortest wave/ highest energy: nuclear explosions

x rays

helps you see bones

ultraviolet light

causes sunburns

visible light

ROYGBIV- what we see

infrared light

imaging of heat; remote controls

microwaves

radiation that can cook food

radio waves

longest waves/lowest energy; radio
